What the Paperguide MCP unlocks
Four things your assistant can do once connected
Search 200M+ papers
Ask in plain language. Your assistant turns the question into a real search across peer-reviewed papers and preprints.
Build a search strategy
Run several angles in one sitting — narrow by year, citation count, open access or journal quartile, and compare what each returns.
Draft with citations you can open
Reading lists, summaries and literature-review sections where every claim links to the paper behind it.
Carry findings into Paperguide
Save anything worth keeping to your library, then take it into a systematic review or data extraction.
