🚀 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 (𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐚) – 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 🚀 At Perlego, we’re on a mission to unlock knowledge and make learning more accessible to all. Lately, we’ve been experimenting with new ways to improve the discovery experience for research. We took a significant step forward in June by making it easier to discover relevant titles and passages from our catalogue using natural-language queries. Today, we’re thrilled to take that journey further with the launch of 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 in Beta. 💡 So, what is it? The Research Assistant is designed to help students and researchers find inspiration for their topic, swiftly surface relevant sources, and dig deeper to uncover new insights. When you ask a research question, we search for the most relevant passages within our library of 1M+ titles, give you an overview, and point you toward the full text of every title cited, building a bridge between you and the information. Think of it as a whole new way to search and discover new sources through a conversational experience. This is our very first version. Think of it as an early prototype that we want to continue iterating on with your input. Over the coming months, we'll continue to work closely with students, educators, and publishers in our community to improve and evolve the experience. In particular, we will focus on ways to enhance—not replace—the learning, teaching, and research experience. 🔎 Try it here: https://lnkd.in/dHTQw5Wq
