Literature Reviews That Take Days, Not Months
A CLAW systematically searches, reads, and synthesizes academic papers to deliver a structured literature review for your research area.
The Problem
- Literature reviews take months of reading hundreds of papers
- Keeping track of themes across dozens of papers is overwhelming
- Missing key papers can undermine the credibility of your research
The CLAW Advantage
- Systematic paper discovery across multiple academic databases
- Thematic synthesis mapping connections between studies
- Research gap identification highlighting opportunities for your work

Frequently Asked Questions
Which databases do CLAWs search?
CLAWs search across publicly available academic sources, preprint servers, and citation databases. Provide PDFs for any paywalled papers you want included.
Can CLAWs write the literature review section of my paper?
CLAWs produce a structured synthesis that serves as a strong draft. You'll want to add your own analytical voice and ensure it meets your advisor's expectations.
How does the CLAW handle contradictory findings?
CLAWs explicitly flag contradictions, compare methodologies, and present both sides — helping you analyze why studies disagree.
