Atlas

Pick a research task. Then open the dossier that fits.

Filter by the job you have — literature review, citation check, notes, writing — then open a dossier for when to use it, when not to, and what it costs. How we test · Models · Find a tool in four questions · Check a reference list.

A separate shelf. Scores here rate fit for building software and daily tooling, not literature work, so they are not comparable with research-tool scores.

Score distribution

How dossiers cluster across the 0–100 editorial fit score. Bars left of 60 are deliberately published — a low score is still useful evidence.
