Define concepts and query groups in the protocol. Record each database run, its syntax, filters and retrieved records.
A research workspace for systematic reviews
Closed MVP Testing · Invite Only
Research, with a clear trail.
Cognodus brings literature search, screening, evidence extraction and synthesis into one transparent workspace—so every conclusion can be traced back to the research behind it.
Human decisions stay visible, reviewable and in control.

A connected review workspace
From a search strategy to a defensible conclusion.
Keep the work that is often spread across spreadsheets, folders and notes together. Cognodus links each stage of the review to the sources and decisions that support it.
Screen with a record
Manage inclusion decisions, criteria and reasons while preserving a clear history from import through full-text review.
Synthesize from evidence
Group highlighted passages by research question, connect evidence to claims and make the reasoning behind findings inspectable.
A transparent workflow
Every step leaves a useful trail.
Move through the review in a clear sequence. Your protocol and evidence stay connected as the project develops.
01
Plan
Set the scope, PICOC, research questions, eligibility criteria and search strategy.
02
Find & select
Search sources, import records, resolve duplicates and document screening decisions.
03
Extract
Read full texts, highlight relevant passages and link evidence to each research question.
04
Synthesize
Compare findings, note limitations and build conclusions from traceable evidence.
Researcher-reviewed workflowAI supports the process. People own the decisions.
AI suggestions are presented as assistance, with their source and context visible.
Researchers review and approve screening, extraction and synthesis decisions.
Claims stay linked to the evidence used to support or challenge them.
Human-centred AI assistance
Keep the researcher in control.
Cognodus is being developed alongside doctoral research to support systematic literature review methodology. AI can help organize work and surface evidence, but it does not replace methodological judgement. Researchers remain responsible for decisions, interpretation and final approval.
