What is Scholar AI?
ScholarAI focuses on finding and working with academic research. Its current official site explains that its paper-search tools now power Jenni, connecting discovery with source organization and writing assistance. The site also points to a ScholarAI GPT and an API for builders. This makes the product relevant both to researchers exploring literature and to teams that want research search inside a broader application or drafting process.
Use discovery to build a reading list
Begin with a focused research question and inspect the papers returned before expanding the topic. ScholarAI's described workflow includes paper search, PDF questions, notes, and source organization, with Zotero and Mendeley import in the connected Jenni experience. Read the abstract, method, and limitations of important papers yourself. A relevant title or generated summary does not establish that the study supports the claim you want to make.
Keep evidence attached to the draft
The Jenni connection brings research discovery into a writing workflow with citation assistance. Use it to develop an outline and identify where a paragraph needs evidence, then verify each reference and the passage it supports. The separate GPT and API routes serve different working contexts, so check which interface provides the capability you need. Preserve a distinction between a paper's reported findings and your own interpretation of the literature.

Who is Scholar AI for?
Useful for students, researchers, and research-software builders who need to connect literature discovery with reading and drafting, especially when they already maintain a source library and can verify citations against the original publications.
Before you get started
Check the current interface and integration before choosing a workflow. Verify paper metadata, quotations, and citation support, and follow the relevant course, journal, or institution rules for disclosing AI assistance.
