AI that answers from
the sources you trust

Designed for biomedical research. Build your library, ask complex questions, and get answers traced to every source.

A library that grows with your career

More than a file cabinet — a living research knowledge base with AI built in.

Cloud-based & portable

Access your entire collection from anywhere, on any device.

Always organized

Every paper indexed, searchable, and ready when you need it.

Summaries & figures

Each paper carries an AI-generated summary and all its figures.

Chat with any paper

Ask questions about individual papers or your entire library.

AI-powered retrieval

Your AI assistant draws from every paper you've collected.

Grows with you

From your first paper to your thousandth — your knowledge compounds.

Your sources matter more than ever

Three million papers a year. Retractions climbing. The volume of science is growing faster than any researcher can follow — but the researchers who do the best work aren't reading more, they're reading better.

Transparent Lab is built around that insight. Build a library of sources you've actually vetted, and let AI find connections across all of them — with every answer cited to the exact passage it came from.

You choose the sources. AI does the synthesis.

Built by researchers,
for researchers

Transparent Lab was created by active biomedical researchers who needed a better way to work with their own literature. We use it in our own research every day. This is a research tool designed from the ground up for scientific work — purpose-built for the way scientists actually think and read.

By Invitation Only Early access for researchers
