Database on trial: Web of Science Research Assistant

From February 10 to April 10, a trial of the new Web of Science feature, Research Assistant, in Clarivate’s citation database will be open. The new generative AI-powered tool helps researchers find key papers faster, handle complex research tasks and visualize connections.

Feedback and questions are welcome at erialainfo@tlulib.ee. 

The Web of Science Research Assistant features include:

  • Flexible search for documents – Users can conduct natural language searches in several languages. The tool delivers overviews that consider more than 120 years of research and reveals connections between concepts and papers in a field of study.
  • Guided prompts and tasks – The tool suggests ways users can enhance their research tasks, following context-specific prompts to expand or refine the scope of discovery. Guided tasks including ‘Understand a topic’, ‘Literature review’ or ‘Find a journal’ help researchers focus on exactly what they need.
  • Unique data visualizations – Users can explore trend graphs, topic maps and co-citation networks that show different angles on a topic and guide them deeper into their research.
