GraceLitRev (Research Assistant Tool)

Hacker News

During my doctoral journey and article writing as a researcher (including systematic literature reviews), reviewing literature by themes was always challenging. So, we developed GraceLitRev, an AI-powered research assistant tool that lets users upload research papers, extracts 28 metadata variables, generates downloadable graphs, and exports data to MS Excel and RIS files. GraceLitRev helps researchers quickly identify gaps in theory, methodology, data analysis, and future studies. Unlike other research tools that search the internet without user control, our tool gives users full control: upload your documents, review extracted data, and generate themes. It doesn’t write for you but saves hours of reading by extracting key information.
