WHAT SIFT DOES

Built to support you without
drowning you in papers.

Your feed, your way

Design each feed just the way you want it. Broad ideas, niche topics, only rodent studies, only top-tier journals—whatever you want or don't want to see, SIFT builds a feed around your exact specifications.

Stay current without the noise

Thousands of research papers are published every day — you can't read them all. SIFT intelligently finds the papers you care about, delivered fresh each morning.

Always know what to read first

Every paper is ranked by how relevant it is to your interests — so you can spend your time reading only what matters to you.

See what's trending across all of science

A curated view of the best new papers across every scientific discipline — making it easy to explore research outside your immediate focus.

Distill any paper in minutes

Get a deep analysis of any open-access paper with a single tap — key findings, what's novel, what's contested, and a critical assessment of the claims.

WHY WE CREATED

A better way to discover the latest research

Current platforms are built to store papers or do one-time complex literature review. Useful, but overwhelming and often bloated with features — and they don't provide continuous new paper discovery.
Paper discovery tools still rely on simple keyword matching, flooding you with daily unorganized lists and clogging your inbox.
More papers, complex lit maps and graphs ≠ better science.
What you actually need: a modern way to stay on top of the latest research.

✨

What you need without the fluff

SIFT is built specifically for new paper discovery — intelligently filtering and organizing the latest research so staying current feels effortless.

No mapping thousands of old papers
No complex feature dashboards
No email spam
