Keeping up with new research takes hours that most researchers do not have. Keyword alerts send every paper that mentions a term, and the few papers that matter to your work get lost among them. FeedScholar sends you only the new papers that fit your research, and nothing else.
Tell FeedScholar about your research once
Setup is a short conversation of about two minutes. You describe your subfield, the questions you work on, the methods you use, and a couple of papers you would never have wanted to miss. A preview shows your feed before you give an email address, and you can edit your profile at any time.
AI picks the papers that fit your research
FeedScholar uses AI to pick the handful of new papers that fit your profile. It can find a paper that fits your work even when its authors use words you would not have searched for. A keyword alert can’t, because it needs you to know the right search terms in advance. The comparison with Google Scholar alerts covers that difference in more detail.
Every paper comes with a reason
Each paper in your digest carries a short reason it was picked, so you can decide in a few seconds whether to open it. On Basic and Pro, your ratings shape the feed: a thumbs-up brings more papers like that one, and a thumbs-down brings fewer, so the digest gets sharper with each issue.
No spam, and free tools on every plan
FeedScholar sends one digest on the schedule you choose: monthly on the free plan, and weekly or monthly on a paid plan. It sends no promotional mail in its place, and every email has a one-click unsubscribe. Every plan, the free one included, lets you save papers for later and talk with a paper: you open a paper beside a chat that answers only from that paper and cites the passage it used.
