Acade

Acade is an AI-powered research co-scientist built for literature-grounded, end-to-end research workflows. Unlike generic AI chatbots, Acade is purpose-built to transform an initial research question into a fully structured, verifiable research process — maintaining the researcher's authority at every critical decision point.

How Acade works:

Research Question Intake: Before the agent begins, Acade captures your domain, research goal, constraints, uploaded files, assumptions, and expected decisions to frame the investigation correctly.Literature Mapping: Acade organizes relevant papers, claims, methods, ongoing debates, and research gaps into a coherent, source-provenance-preserving literature map.Hypothesis Cards: The tool generates traceable hypothesis cards that compare supporting evidence vs. counter-evidence, assess novelty, feasibility, and risk — helping researchers evaluate candidate ideas before committing to execution.Experiment & Analysis Planning: Acade helps design experiment or analysis plans grounded in the literature map and selected hypotheses.Evidence-Backed Reports: The full research path — from question to evidence, from hypothesis to validation plan — is compiled into a source-backed research report.Human-in-the-Loop Design: Researchers retain complete control over scientific judgment, ethics, experiment approval, and final conclusions. Acade augments, never replaces, scientific expertise.

Acade is designed for researchers, graduate students, data scientists, and research teams who need a structured co-pilot from hypothesis generation through to documented, reproducible research outputs.
