What you'll accomplish
Most researchers discover related work by accident, years into a project. ResearchRabbit gives you a visual map of your topic's citation network up front: how papers connect, who the key authors are, and which clusters of work you might have missed. You'll see the landscape of your field in one view before you've missed anything important.
What you'll need
- A free ResearchRabbit account at researchrabbit.ai
- 1–3 seed papers you already know are central to your topic (or their DOIs)
- Time needed: 30 minutes for your first map; 10 minutes to explore new maps
- Cost: Free (ResearchRabbit is free for academics)
