RhizoCam

Uncover the Next Frontier
in Scientific Research.

RhizoCam is a smart tool that nears and traverses the extensive terrain of biological and healthcare literature to identify research gaps and generate new directions for your next discovery.

Stop Searching, Start Discovering

Finding a truly unique research question can be like looking for a needle in a haystack. RhizoCam is the magnet you've been looking for.

1. Define Your Interest

Begin by entering a wide topic in a biological or healthcare area or a specific question if you have one. The platform is designed to understand a variety of scientific meanings and complex concepts.

2. Analyze the Literature

RhizoCam scans thousands of papers, creating a knowledge map and identifying areas of little or contradictory research—perfect for innovation.

3. Find Gaps & Get Titles

You then receive a list of research gaps, potential areas of research, and even AI-generated titles to kickstart your next project or paper.

Our Aim

"We are on a mission to democratize and accelerate science. If we can provide clear and understandable tools to navigate the vast, complex web of scientific literature, we can help researchers focus on what matters the most—and that is innovation and progress."
