Mindmap your research with AI.
Ask Agent Bayes what to investigate. It searches your sources, synthesizes findings into structured mindmap nodes, and backs every claim with page-level citations you can trace to the exact passage.
How it works
From sources to a structured research map
The mindmap is your shared workspace. You direct the research, the agent retrieves and structures evidence, and you refine the result. Each iteration deepens the argument — at every step the work stays yours.
Step 01
Build your knowledge base
Upload PDFs or sync your Zotero library — every paper is indexed and semantically searchable.
- Full layout preservation across all document types.
- Search in English across papers in any language.
Step 02
Ask a research question
Type a natural language query and a multi-agent pipeline retrieves, synthesizes, and structures findings directly into your mindmap.
- Up to three self-correction passes run before results reach you — not a first draft, a reviewed synthesis.
- Control research depth and model selection to balance speed, quality, and cost per run.
Step 03
Explore your mindmap
Results arrive as a structured mindmap — contradictions surface as distinct nodes, never silently merged.
- Expand branches, rearrange structure, or request a prose synthesis of competing views.
- Click any node to see the exact passage it drew on, right inside the map.
Step 04
Take over
Write your own claims, attach citations, and ask Agent Bayes to score how well your wording matches the evidence.
- Semantic search across your corpus directly from the map.
- Suggested rewrites where phrasing overstates or drifts from cited passages.
Built for research
The rigour researchers demand
Not a general-purpose AI assistant. Purpose-built for the specific standards and specific frustrations of academic research.
Every claim traced to its source
Every AI-generated claim links directly to the specific paper and passage it came from. Click any citation to read the exact evidence.
Your library, instantly searchable
Semantic search across all indexed papers finds relevant passages even when you don't know the exact words. Filter by tags, author, or year.
From question to synthesis
A multi-agent pipeline queries, synthesizes, structures, and self-corrects. Up to three evaluation loops run before results appear.
Works with Zotero out of the box
Sync your existing Zotero library in one step with the native plugin. No re-uploading, no rebuilding your workflow. Metadata syncs automatically.
Contradictions preserved, not averaged
Conflicting viewpoints appear as distinct nodes. Scholarly disagreement is represented faithfully and every position carries its own evidence.
Annotate and read in full context
The built-in PDF reader shows AI-extracted bullets in a synchronized sidebar. Highlight passages, add notes, and request inline translations without leaving Agent Bayes.
Why it matters
The cost of doing it the old way
Manual literature reviews are not just slow. They introduce structural risks that surface at the worst possible moment.
6 to 8 weeks on a manual literature review before real writing begins.
Comprehensive synthesis in hours — structured, searchable, and ready to build on.
Relevant papers missed because they were published in another language.
Any language indexed in English. No paper left out because of where it was written.
Contradictions silently averaged into a consensus that does not exist.
Competing positions surfaced as distinct nodes, each with its own evidence chain.
Citations that cannot be traced back to a specific passage at submission time.
Every node links to the exact paper, page, and passage it draws on. Always.
"Most AI tools give you a summary and call it done. Agent Bayes gives you a living research structure — one you can question, reshape, and defend."
Agent Bayes was built to meet the evidentiary standards of academic research, not to appear impressive in demos. The mindmap is yours to control — the agent works for you, not the other way around.
