From literature to testable hypotheses

From literature to testable hypotheses

Most literature reviews end where they should begin: a folder of PDFs and a document of quotes, with the actual reasoning — what the field knows, where it disagrees, what to test next — still living in one researcher's head. Neutropic makes that reasoning the product.

A synthesis where every sentence is accountable

Ask a question and the agent searches across scholarly databases, then writes a synthesis in which every claim carries an inline citation to a real source. Sentences that no source supports are flagged, not smoothed over. Click any sentence to see exactly what it rests on.

The field as a map, not a list

Beyond summaries, Neutropic connects the literature into a structure — theories, variables, methods, and findings, and the relations between them. Contradictory results cluster together instead of hiding on page 40, and unstudied combinations become visible as gaps.

Hypotheses with their rationale attached

From those gaps and conflicts, the agent proposes testable hypotheses — each with its scientific rationale and the supporting references, each debatable and editable. Accept one and it flows directly into study design: variables, conditions, measures, sampling, and an analysis plan.

The workflow is the point

Nothing here is a disconnected feature. The same evidence that grounded the synthesis grounds the hypotheses, and the same hypotheses shape the design and the eventual analysis — so when a reviewer asks "why did you test this?", the answer is one click deep, not one memory deep.
