What's cool about it:
It's running on GLM language models with a ton of academic data. Here's the deal:
Actually understands what you're asking: None of that keyword-matching nonsense. You can ask complex stuff and it gets it. Chat with it like a human: Just ask whatever you want to know. No more filling out those annoying advanced search forms. Shows receipts: Every answer links back to the source - papers, authors, journals, whatever. Got different flavors: They've rolled out like 10 different QA services. You can dig into journals, institutions, researchers, even search arXiv papers. Plus there's this FAQ thing for platform stuff. DIY search tools: There's this thing called AWEL where you can build your own search apps. Multiple modes - single agent, autoplan, workflow. Whatever floats your boat.
The good stuff:
Data's massive: 330M papers, 60M researchers, 17M patents, 90K journals, 1.2M institutions, 6500K project Everything's connected: Papers, people, places, journals, patents - all linked up Super detailed: Gets down to stuff like journal rankings and researcher locations Why it's legit:
No hallucinations - everything's backed by real data You can trace everything back to AMiner's database Their search actually works - tested with 44 different questions, got 86% right, especially good with the complex stuff Might be worth checking out if you're into academic research. Or not. Your call.
