Elicit AI

Today we introduce Elicit Alerts, a new way to stay informed about relevant research with AI.

Existing tools don’t work. Automated alerts via Google Scholar or PubMed are difficult to set up and monitor, and often return noisy results that waste researcher time.

Elicit Alerts solve these problems with AI, allowing you to stay aware of the latest research, without the noise:
- Get alerts to your inbox when a new important paper is published.
- Use relevance scores to filter out the noise and focus your time on the right papers.
- Create your alerts with simple, natural language research questions instead of complex keywords alerts with boolean operators.
