Deep review is a powerful research agent that conducts full literature reviews across 220 million academic papers in just minutes. It helps you critically explore a topic, identify major findings, surface counterpoints, and get a structured understanding of the field.
How does Deep work?
It works just how a researcher approaches a topic! Deep breaks down your question into multiple sub-questions, runs up to 20 unique targeted searches, and synthesizes a detailed literature review of the top findings. Here's what happens behind the scenes:
Breaks down your question into multiple sub-questions
Runs up to 20 targeted searches related to your topic
Reviews over 1,000 papers to select the most relevant ones
Synthesizes a structured literature review based on the top ~50 papers
The report follows the structure of a traditional literature review complete with introduction, methods, results, and discussion. It also includes interactive visuals that:
Show the consensus among the research
Highlight key authors
Extract key claims and their supporting evidence
Reveal potential research gaps

FAQs
What does the checkmark icon within the in-line citation mean?
This means that the full text of the paper was used for our analysis. No checkmark means the abstract was used.
I'm on the free plan. Why did my Pro message count go down when I used Deep?
For free users, using Deep also uses one of your Pro message credits. This is because Deep is an upgraded Pro message that runs a longer, more in-depth review. Free users receive 15 Pro messages per month and up to 3 Deep Reviews per month.
