Researcher Center

Your lab's knowledge, searchable and citation-backed.

Researcher Center turns your group's scattered papers, protocols, theses, and notes into a shared AI knowledge base that answers questions with citations to your own sources - and declines instead of guessing when the answer is not there.

The problem

How it works

  1. Upload your documents (PDF, Word, Markdown, text, code, and more).
  2. Ask a question in plain language.
  3. Get a cited answer - open the evidence to see exactly which sources it came from.

What you get

Grounded answers with citations

Every answer cites the exact sources it used. When the documents do not contain the answer, Researcher Center declines instead of fabricating.

Shared lab knowledge and workspaces

Build a searchable knowledge base your whole group can use, organized by project or group, with data isolated per tenant.

Provider flexibility

Start instantly on platform-managed OpenAI, or switch to your own API key or a local/self-hosted model (Ollama/vLLM). Set per organization.

Spend control

Per-plan monthly AI credits with hard caps - no surprise bills on managed usage.

Provider flexibility, your choice

You control where inference runs. Platform-managed (OpenAI) gets you started in minutes. Prefer to keep data in-house or control cost? Use your own API key, or run a local/self-hosted model. Local/self-hosted is the default architecture; the managed cloud path is an opt-in convenience. See how data is handled.

Built on trust

Evidence you can verify

Citation markers map to the exact retrieved passages; inspect the evidence behind any answer.

Tenant isolation

Each group's data is isolated from every other tenant. We do not log your document text, prompts, answers, or secrets.
