via “research-question-decomposition-and-scoping”

Elicit uses language models to help you automate research workflows, like parts of literature review.

Unique: Uses language models to perform multi-step reasoning about research questions, decomposing them into searchable components and mapping to relevant methodologies and disciplines rather than simple keyword expansion
