System is the fastest way to find, synthesize, and contextualize scientific literature, beginning in health and life sciences.
The depth and breadth of information you need to stay on top of is increasing, but the technology there to help you hasn’t changed in years. Search still means sifting through thousands of results. The more science advances, the harder the problem gets.
Plus, the way we search no longer reflects our best understanding of the complexity and interconnectedness of the systems that make up our world — from health to climate to the economy. We are driven to see silos instead of systems, impairing the quality and reliability of our decisions.
System reimagines search from the ground up, using AI to extract, relate, and visualize the findings of research. Save hours reviewing the literature — and get help connecting the dots to make better decisions.
With other search tools, you have to analyze and stitch together the literature on your own. System synthesizes the evidence for you: for a given paper, a topic or variable, or a relationship between them.
For insights to be actionable, they need to be explainable first. With System, you can see the source data for every relationship on the platform, including direct links to the underlying studies, and the statistical methods used to compute them.
Your search is usually constrained to what you already know to look for. System puts findings from studies in the context of related areas, helping you discover other factors to consider for research plans or clinical decisions.
Now it’s simple to focus your literature review on the population characteristics you care about. System starts by locating the statistical findings that match the filters in your search, so you’ll only find relevant papers.

Powered by the System platform, System is a free and open graph of the world’s systems. Today, System comprises millions of relationships between tens of thousands of topics, and is growing daily. Over time, we envision System becoming a living public resource that explains how anything in the world is related to everything else.
We launched System in public beta in March 2022 and it has served nearly 200,000 users since then.

Right now, System Pro has two main limitations.
First, the subject matter is limited to health and life sciences. While we are continuing to expand our source material, we’re deliberately taking our time to get this initial knowledge space right before we expand to other domains.
Second, you may find sentences that aren’t as clear as they could be. While we’re working to address that, our priority is accuracy and reliability.
There are five key steps we take to ensure accuracy.
System Pro was purpose-built with explainability and trustworthiness at its core, combining LLMs with unique structured data and a patented graph architecture. It was designed to help break down disciplinary silos and support systems-based research and solutions.
System Pro…
This is all possible because of System’s proprietary architecture.
Today, System Pro extracts results from all 35 million studies on PubMed.

The information on System Pro is refreshed daily.
Based on your search, System Pro assembles all the relevant findings we’ve extracted from peer-reviewed studies using AI, clustering them to group findings about the same or similar variables.
Every finding we extract is then translated into a sentence using a strict rules-based template, with each sentence able to stand alone to represent a reported finding from the original source.
We generate our synthesis of the research by prompting an LLM to synthesize those sentences, using and citing the findings alone. End to end, this process helps to ensure that accuracy and explainability can be preserved.
