Consensus is an AI-powered search engine designed specifically for finding answers to questions from academic research papers. Rather than just returning a list of documents like traditional search engines, Consensus analyses the full text of papers to extract short summaries of the key findings related to your search query.

The interface encourages users to ask complete questions about relationships between concepts. Some example searches shown on the homepage include “Does spanking impact childhood development?” and “What predicts success as a startup founder?”. Consensus then presents a brief evidence-based answer summarising what the research says rather than just a list of papers.
Users can browse previews of answer topics across a wide range of subject areas, from social policy and medicine to mental health, supplements, economics and sleep. The site aims to make it easy to discover what scientific studies have found on virtually any research-related question. Additional features allow sharing search results on social media or suggesting new topics for their blog.
Consensus has an interesting approach focusing on question-answering over traditional document retrieval. I look forward to trying it out and seeing how well the answers summarise the scientific evidence found in research papers.
