Features & Capabilities

Consensus is an AI-powered research search app for exploring more than 250 million peer-reviewed papers, including 8 million medical papers and clinical guidelines. It synthesizes evidence in plain language with sentence-level citations, helping researchers, clinicians, and students verify claims and understand what the literature says.

Use the Consensus Meter to see whether studies support or challenge a claim, review Study Snapshots, filter by study design and publication date, and generate deeper literature reviews across up to 50 papers. Ask questions by voice or directly to accessible papers and uploaded PDFs, save research to synced collections, import from Zotero, and export citations in APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard, or BibTeX formats.

User Reviews

Users find Consensus accurate and valuable for scholarly research and finding sources. However, the most frequently reported problem is that the Android app opens in the mobile browser instead of as a standalone app, forcing repeated logins. Many also report slow responsiveness, lag, heavy RAM usage, and difficulty opening the thread and research paper panels on mobile. Some express concern about the in-app Google sign-in, which asks for account credentials rather than using Google's standard API. Overall, the content quality is praised, but the app's stability and performance need significant improvement.

Pros

Accurate, high-quality search results and useful for scholarly research
Helpful for learning new terms and finding scientific sources
Good, clear answers for research work

Cons

App repeatedly opens in the mobile browser instead of as a native app
Requires logging in again every time the app is opened, due to browser redirection
Slow performance, lag, and poor responsiveness, including high RAM usage
Thread panel and research paper panel are difficult to open on mobile
Google sign-in handled inside the app rather than via Google's API, raising security concerns
