Consensus + Semantic Scholar bring academic research to the masses. By instantly surfacing “findings” from research papers in Semantic Scholar’s massive dataset, Consensus is transforming academic research into approachable information.

BOSTON, Sept. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Consensus, a new AI-powered scientific search engine, announced its partnership today with Semantic Scholar, a research article aggregator and smart discovery tool whose mission is to use AI to accelerate scientific breakthroughs.

Consensus’ ad-free search engine uses artificial intelligence to instantly surface findings from scientific research. Consensus’ mission is to make getting information from research papers more approachable and efficient, regardless of a user’s expertise. To achieve this, they rely on the Semantic Scholar dataset as the underlying corpus from which they surface user-friendly research findings.

The Semantic Scholar dataset comprises 200 million research papers from some of the world’s highest-quality journals. Their library is also rich in metadata, with each record containing robust accompanying data such as study type, citation count, subject of research, and more.

The breadth of coverage combined with the quality of data made partnering with Semantic Scholar incredibly valuable for the Consensus team:

“Semantic Scholar is an incredible product from the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence, a leader in cutting-edge AI research. Tools that enable more efficient access to research papers like Consensus could not exist without datasets that are high-quality and comprehensive in their coverage. We are lucky that Semantic Scholar exists, and we are proud to partner with them,” stated Eric Olson, CEO of Consensus.

Eric added, “Semantic Scholar’s mission of using AI to accelerate research is perfectly complementary to our mission of making research more accessible for people of all backgrounds.”

Moving forward, the companies expect that continued collaboration will help advance the mission of both organizations and provide users with a more advanced research experience.

“The Consensus team has formulated a tool that fills a much-needed space in the research and scholarly environment. We are pleased to assist with their efforts and are excited to see where their ingenuity will take them,” said Joe Gorney, Manager for Strategic Partnerships at Semantic Scholar.

Be sure to support Consensus as they launch their search engine on Thursday, September 8th.
