ANSWERTHIS MCP

Your research, inside your AI assistant

Connect AnswerThis to a compatible assistant using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Find academic papers, work with your research library, and continue writing with linked citations.

Find papers without leaving the conversation

Search by topic, DOI, title, or author. Use the returned papers and citations to follow up on a research question. Public paper search is available without connecting an AnswerThis account.

Bring your saved sources into your workflow

With your account connected and the required permissions approved, browse library folders, save selected papers, and read accessible library text. Full-text availability depends on access to the source.

Keep useful work in AnswerThis Writer

Ask your assistant to create a Writer draft with linked citations or edit a saved draft. These actions require your AnswerThis account and writing permissions. Saving a draft is an explicit action.

Choose what your assistant can access

Review the permissions when connecting your account. Library access and draft editing require different permissions, and you can revoke a connected app from AnswerThis. Open the setup page for current client instructions, connection details, and account requirements.
