Research that runs while you sleep
AI Agents are autonomous tasks that execute in the background. Give one instruction and the agent searches, analyzes, synthesizes, and delivers results. No manual steps, no waiting at a screen.
Literature Review Agent
Give the agent a topic or research question. It searches 12 databases, selects the most relevant papers, generates a structured synthesis with conclusions and evidence gaps, and imports the papers directly to your project.
Research Review Agent
Select an existing research. The agent reads the hypothesis, protocol, and roadmap, searches for supporting and contradicting evidence, identifies weaknesses, and proposes a fully refined version. Accept it or save it as a new version.
Research Monitoring Agent
Runs automatically every week. Scans all active projects for new relevant publications, evaluates their impact on existing hypotheses, and delivers a digest so your team never misses a breakthrough.
Frequently Asked Questions
What databases does NousLab search?
NousLab searches 12 leading academic databases: PubMed, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, Crossref, Europe PMC, PubMed Central, arXiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv, DOAJ, ClinicalTrials.gov, Orphanet, and OMIM. That adds up to over 250 million scientific papers accessible from a single query.
Does NousLab hallucinate or invent research results?
No. Every answer NousLab generates is grounded in peer-reviewed literature with full citations. The AI never invents data, statistics, or findings. If a claim cannot be supported by a real paper in the database, it will not appear in the output.
Can NousLab run on our own servers?
Yes. NousLab offers an enterprise on-premise deployment option. Your organization can run the entire AI engine on private servers, a private cloud, or even air-gapped environments. Data sovereignty and compliance requirements are fully supported.
How long does a literature review take with NousLab?
Literature reviews that used to take weeks can now be completed in minutes. Clinical trial protocol design that used to take days takes minutes. Teams report up to 50–100x faster research from first search to publishable insight.
Which AI models does NousLab use?
NousLab offers a flexible AI infrastructure. Standard mode uses Gemini for all tasks. Hybrid mode combines Gemini for paper analysis with Claude for hypothesis generation and protocol creation. Local mode lets you run everything with your own models (Ollama, Mistral, Qwen) for complete data privacy.
