Consensus
AI search engine for scientific evidence
Overview
Consensus is an AI search engine built specifically for finding scientific evidence. Ask a yes/no or open-ended research question, and it searches peer-reviewed papers to provide direct answers backed by citations. The Consensus Meter shows whether research generally agrees, disagrees, or is mixed on a topic. It's a powerful tool for evidence-based decision-making in research, policy, and health.
