Why not just use ChatGPT?

Problems with generic AI vs our solution

Students rely on ChatGPT for first drafts — but when it comes to academic work, the cracks show fast.

Generic LLMs (ChatGPT etc.)

  • Fabricated citations

    References and citations are mostly inaccurate or entirely made up — a serious risk for academic submissions.

  • Document upload limits

    Even paid plans cap the number of files you can upload, making it hard to work across a full reading list.

  • Unreliable source grounding

    Even when you upload your own sources, generic RAG is inconsistent — responses drift from the documents or ignore them entirely.

  • No extraction transparency

    You have no way to see what was actually pulled from which source — or verify that anything was used at all.

ScholarAI

  • Verified citations

    Every citation is grounded in your actual uploaded documents — with exact quotes, source names, and locations, never invented.

  • Upload up to 20 documents

    Load your full reading list — textbook chapters, journal articles, case studies — and ScholarAI works across all of them.

  • Built for academic source grounding

    Every response is synthesised directly from your sources. If it isn't in your documents, ScholarAI won't claim it is.

  • Full extraction transparency

    See exactly which passage was extracted from which source, with the verbatim quote and location shown alongside every citation.

What Students Are Saying

From first essays to dissertations — here's how others are using ScholarAI.

Honestly wasn't expecting much, but it properly surprised me. Uploaded articles and it gave a decent report with citations to sources and exact quotes. Saved me a lot of time.

Did a pretty good job, accurate and well structured. Thanks!

Academic writing takes me a long time. It gave me a solid starting point to build upon. Really useful for that.

Used it for my dissertation literature review. It found new connections between sources and generated new ideas so the new version was much better.

Had to try a couple of times to figure out best way to prompt it, but once that clicked it was genuinely useful. Good for longer essays especially.

Very useful, totally recommended for academic writing.
