About
ResearchRabbit is a web service for finding research related to papers users select. It analyzes those papers and recommends connected work; interactive maps show relationships among papers, authors, and concepts, and recommendations adapt to reading patterns and research interests. The free plan offers unlimited searches across more than 310 million articles, an unlimited library and collections, collection sharing, and up to 50 seed articles. ResearchRabbit+ raises the seed limit to 300 and adds advanced search controls, multiple projects, Signals alerts, and faster support responses. Its annual plan is 10.00 USD per year (billed per month, Annual plan); the monthly plan is 12.50 USD per month (billed per month, Monthly plan). Users can bring selected articles in from Zotero collections and export articles as BibTeX. The Institution plan lists LibKey integration, usage statistics, management for thousands of users, and dedicated support; price is available by contacting the service. ResearchRabbit says it does not sell users’ articles or notes or use them to train AI models. It does not provide screening workflows, full-text management, or systematic review tools.
