Turn ChatGPT into a real research assistant! The Consensus plugin allows you to find answers, search for research papers, and draft pieces of content grounded in scientific research by accessing our database of 200M+ academic papers within ChatGPT

Hi Product Hunt 👋, I’m Eric, co-founder of Consensus. We are thrilled to launch the Consensus Search ChatGPT plugin! The Consensus plugin is the second product from Consensus, an AI-powered search engine for academic research. 💡 What is it? The Consensus Search plugin is a ChatGPT plugin that can be accessed by ChatGPT+ users. It allows users to find answers, search for research papers, and draft pieces of content grounded in scientific research by searching our database of 200M+ peer-reviewed research papers directly within the ChatGPT interface. 🤔 Why did we build it? When ChatGPT launched last year the world immediately saw its potential as a research tool. Only one problem....when you ask ChatGPT to cite its sources, it confidently returns links to papers that do not exist. Enter the Consensus Search plugin. Now, you can turn ChatGPT into the research assistant that everyone envisioned by accessing our curated, cleaned and machine-readable database of over 200M peer-reviewed, scientific papers. 👩‍🔬 What are the use cases? Ask a question, get answers grounded in scientific research. Prompt example: “what are the benefits of mindfulness meditation?“ Draft pieces of content with proper citations from REAL studies. Prompt example: “write me a paragraph about the impact of climate change on GDP with citations“ Find and extract concepts from research papers. Prompt example: “I want a list of effective ways to prevent homelessness with citations“ Search for research papers without having to keyword search. Prompt example: “Find me research papers on the relationship between social media and sleep“ 👍 How do I access it? Note: You need a Chat GPT Plus account to use Plugins 1. Sign into your ChatGPT account: chat.openai.com 2. Hover over the GPT-4 tab on the top of the screen and select “Plugins” 3. Click the “No plugins enabled” dropdown and scroll until you find “Plugin store” 4. Search “Consensus” in the search bar until you find the Consensus Search plugin

Congrats on the launch team!

Congrats on the launch! I love Consensus :)

It is important to note that Consensus search engines are still in the early stages of development and may not be as widely used or as refined as established search engines. However, they represent an interesting approach to address some of the limitations of traditional search engines and offer users a different way to access and evaluate information online.
