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.

Hands-on practice

  1. Choose one task from your current SLR Stage and open the tool’s official site.
  2. Use a narrow, non-sensitive example: a research question, one verified seed article, or an approved sample record.
  3. Try the tool’s relevant search, organisation, analysis, writing or visualisation feature.
  4. Compare the result with the original article, database record, review protocol or source data.
  5. Decide what to keep, revise or reject, then record the decision in the relevant Stage worksheet.

Verification: Check the source coverage, export settings, licence and current platform guidance before relying on outputs.

What to record in your SLR

Do not report a database search or a screening decision unless you actually performed and documented it.
