14 guides covering every stage of a systematic review in the tool, from importing your first search export to the PRISMA 2020 flow diagram, team review, data extraction, meta-analysis, and the REST API. Every guide is written against the current product, so the button names you read here are the button names you will see.

Create your first systematic review project, load the demo project, import records, make screening decisions, and save up to 3 reviews to the cloud free.
Import RIS, PubMed, CSV, Excel, and BibTeX files, search seven free databases directly, chase citations by DOI, and fetch missing abstracts from OpenAlex.
How automatic duplicate detection works in the screening tool: DOI and title matching, measured accuracy figures, and how to review or restore any merge.
Screen titles and abstracts with include, exclude, and maybe calls, criteria and PICO highlighting, relevance ranking, and remappable keyboard shortcuts.
How AI screening suggests include, maybe, or exclude with a reason for each record, what it costs in credits, and the published benchmark accuracy figures.
Translate non-English titles and abstracts into English while screening, one credit per record, per-record or in batch, with the original text always kept.
Move included and maybe records to full-text screening, upload PDFs, find open-access full texts, record exclusion reasons, and feed your PRISMA 2020 counts.
Build data extraction forms from templates, run dual extraction with a consensus step, use AI extraction with evidence quotes, and export everything to CSV.
Appraise included studies with RoB 2, ROBINS-I, QUADAS-2, Newcastle-Ottawa, JBI checklists, AMSTAR 2, or a custom framework, plus publication-ready figures.
Pool included studies with Mantel-Haenszel or DerSimonian and Laird methods, check heterogeneity, draw forest and funnel plots, and export methods text.
Draft a review protocol with PICO, PECO, SPIDER, PCC, or SPICE, build database search strategies, and export PROSPERO-ready text and a PRISMA-S report.
Build a PRISMA 2020 flow diagram, link multiple reports into studies, generate methods text, cite the tool, and share read-only links with supervisors.
