Elicit is a tool to explore academic literature. It is a research assistant that automates the literature review by finding relevant papers, extracting key information about the studies, and organising it into concepts. Elicit searches and discovers concepts across papers, allowing researchers to ask their research question and get a list of answers from the academic literature.
