How it can support an SLR
Use this tool to inspect relationships among papers or support evidence review. Treat generated summaries and recommendations as leads. Apply the agreed eligibility criteria yourself and check claims against the included paper.
Access and features
Open the provider’s official website to check current access, sign-in requirements, institutional availability, and product features. The tool is introduced here through its SLR-relevant purpose; availability and interfaces may change.
Hands-on practice
- Choose one task from your current SLR Stage and open the tool’s official site.
- Use a narrow, non-sensitive example: a research question, one verified seed article, or an approved sample record.
- Try the tool’s relevant search, organisation, analysis, writing or visualisation feature.
- Compare the result with the original article, database record, review protocol or source data.
- Decide what to keep, revise or reject, then record the decision in the relevant Stage worksheet.
Verification: Do not treat generated summaries, citations or recommendations as verified evidence. Check the original publication and retain your own methodological decisions.
What to record in your SLR
- Tool name and task performed
- Search query, prompt, seed paper or input dataset, where relevant
- Date used and key result or output
- How the result was verified and what you accepted, changed or rejected
Do not report a database search or a screening decision unless you actually performed and documented it.
