What Connected Papers is
What sets it apart similarity graph rather than a plain citation tree
Best for mapping the neighborhood around one paper · Pricing model Free with 5 graphs/mo; Academic at about $4/mo; Pro at about $8/mo; institutional custom
Connected Papers generates a visual graph that clusters papers by similarity, using co-citation and bibliographic coupling rather than direct citation links. It helps users find foundational and derivative work around a starting paper. The free plan allows a handful of graphs per month, with cheap paid tiers for heavier use.
