AI tool that discovers papers and authors through citation networks.
Research Rabbit is an AI tool that discovers papers and authors through citation networks. You start with a few papers you like, and it builds a collection of similar papers, authors, and topics — learning from what you save to recommend better results over time. It is often called the Spotify of research papers.

How it works
The tool is free for basic use, with RR+ at $10 a month on annual billing for unlimited collections and features. It is built for researchers who do literature reviews and want to explore a field interactively rather than running the same searches again and again.
Research Rabbit is a favourite among PhD students for its recommendations. It will not replace a search engine, but for discovering papers and authors you would never find by keyword search, it is one of the most enjoyable research tools to use.
