Evidence-grounded research assistant
Citely is designed for research and review workflows where an answer should remain connected to the material being examined.
Bring related sources together
Upload relevant files and connect them in a folder conversation. Ask a question across the selected material while retaining which document each citation comes from.
Separate evidence from interpretation
Retrieved passages provide the source context for a response. Inspect the quotation first, then decide whether the interpretation is appropriate for your research question.
Build a review trail
Keep citations, mark passages manually and record working notes with revision history. This supports a repeatable path from source material to a considered conclusion.
Use human review for important decisions
Citely can report insufficient evidence, but no citation system proves that a source is complete or that an interpretation is correct. Review consequential findings against the original documents.
Frequently asked questions
What is an evidence-grounded research assistant?
An evidence-grounded research assistant answers questions from the source material you provide and keeps each answer connected to the passages it used, so you can inspect the evidence rather than trust the response.
What does Citely do when the documents do not support an answer?
Citely can report that the evidence is insufficient instead of producing a confident answer from weak passages.
Is Citely suitable for reviewing business or research documents?
Citely is designed for review work such as reports, policies, research notes and project files. It is in beta, so consequential findings should still be reviewed against the original documents.
