CLUSTER RESEARCH-ASSISTANT-INFORMATION · 36 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-06-19

AI research assistant tools

These products form a cluster of AI-powered research assistants that search, summarize, and synthesize information from academic papers, web sources, and uploaded documents, often with citation support and multi-agent workflows. The dated entry history shows a low, intermittent pattern: two entries in June 2025, one in July 2025, then a gap until October 2025, after which single entries appear in most months through July 2026, with a few absent months. The clear traction leader is AI-Research-Assistant, which has 42 stars, far outpacing the next closest (SideBy and NutriRAG at 1 star each).

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
