Consensus gives you the first read: how top studies lean on the question you asked. AnswerThis produces the review itself: structured by theme, built from 150+ relevant sources, every line traceable to the paper behind it, ready to refine in the same tab. One tells you where the evidence leans. The other hands you the review.

★★★☆☆
3.5/5
I’m very disappointed with the support experience from Jenni.ai. I was charged an unexpected auto-renewal fee in January, despite not receiving any prior notification or alert before payment date or in the first time when I inserted my payment data. I immediately reached out to their support team via email twice, kindly requesting a refund. Unfortunately, I have received no response whatsoever. It’s extremely frustrating and unprofessional for a company to ignore customer support emails, especially when it concerns billing issues.

FAQ
We have answers to your questions
What does AnswerThis search, and how complete is it?
It searches 300M+ papers and clinical trials across PubMed, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, arXiv, ClinicalTrials.gov and more, plus any PDFs and library imports you add. Full documents are read, not just abstracts.
How is this different from asking a chatbot for a literature review?
A chatbot writes from memory and invents references under pressure. AnswerThis builds the review from retrieved papers, checks each claim against its source, and drops anything it cannot verify.
Can I control which papers make it into the review?
Yes. Set journal quality, publication date, minimum citation count, and source type before generation, and adjust the number of sources and the model.
What does cited line by line actually mean?
Every statement is checked against the paper it came from before it reaches you, and unsourced claims are removed rather than filled in. You can click any citation to see the exact passage.
What stops it from making up citations?
Every sentence in the review carries its own citation. Click it and the original PDF opens with the source sentence highlighted, in whichever of the 2,000+ styles you choose.
