## What it is

Consensus searches peer reviewed papers and returns the actual findings as short claim summaries, with a Consensus Meter that shows how much studies agree on yes or no questions. It draws on the Semantic Scholar corpus of over 200 million papers. Founded in 2021, it later added deep search features for longer literature analysis.
