What you can do with it
Semantic Scholar is Ai2's free AI-powered discovery tool for scientific literature. It helps you find relevant papers and navigate research through scholarly metadata and related work. Rather than being a general conversational chatbot, it serves as an entry point for locating evidence and deciding which original studies deserve closer reading.
Free access
What’s included for free
Ai2 describes Semantic Scholar as a free AI-powered research tool. Searching does not require a paid plan; accounts support personal library features, and publisher full-text access is separate.
Access can depend on your region, account, and the provider’s current terms.
Limits to know
Free discovery does not remove publisher paywalls.
