Researchly is an AI-powered academic research workspace that helps university students and researchers discover papers, manage projects, write research papers, and learn how to conduct academic research. The platform combines a structured curriculum, an AI research assistant named Roy, a 7.7-million-paper discovery engine, project management tools, and an academic community. Operated by Lunox Solutions Inc. and backed by the NVIDIA Inception Program and AWS Startups. Available at app.researchly.study.
Researchly is an organised academic research workspace that gives students everything they need in one place: paper discovery across 36 sources, an AI research assistant (Roy) that understands your project context, a structured project workspace with tasks and paper writing tools, a research Academy with 11 modules and 46 lessons, and a researcher community.
Discover is Researchly's academic paper search engine. It searches simultaneously across 36 sources including Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, arXiv, PubMed, bioRxiv, medRxiv, CORE, Papers With Code, and NASA ADS. Results are ranked by relevance to the user's research project. A default last-5-years filter surfaces the most current research.
Roy is Researchly's AI research assistant, powered by Claude (Anthropic) via AWS Bedrock. Roy operates in Mentor Mode: he helps students structure, critique, and improve their research rather than writing papers for them. Roy has full context awareness - he reads the student's paper sections, project tasks, references, and research question.
The Researchly Project Workspace is an all-in-one research management environment. It includes a Kanban task board, a paper editor with structured sections (Abstract, Introduction, Literature Review, Methodology, Results, Discussion, Conclusion), a references manager, a surveys builder with AI generation, team collaboration, and an inline Roy AI panel. Everything is connected - Roy can see the paper content, references, and tasks.
The Researchly Academy is a structured academic research curriculum with 11 modules and 46 lessons covering the complete research process: research mindset, finding and reading papers, database navigation, literature reviews, research methodology, survey design, academic writing, citations, peer review, and AI tools for researchers. Available at academy.researchly.study.
Researchly verifies university affiliation through two methods. First, automatic email domain verification against a database of 10,500+ university domains. Second, AI document verification: students can upload a student ID, enrolment letter, or transcript, which is analysed by Claude Vision AI to confirm legitimacy.
The Journal Checker verifies whether an academic journal is legitimate before submission. It checks 217,000+ sources including Scopus, OpenAlex, DOAJ, and predatory journal watchlists, returning quartile ranking, h-index, SJR score, article processing charge, and predatory journal warnings.
The Topic Finder uses 6 AI agents in parallel to generate personalised research topic suggestions based on the student's interests, academic level, location, and career goals. Each suggested topic can be converted into a full project workspace with AI-generated tasks.
11 modules: (0) Research Foundations, (1) Finding Your Topic, (2) Academic Databases, (3) Reading Papers, (4) Literature Review, (5) Research Methodology, (6) Survey Design, (7) Academic Writing, (8) Citations, (9) AI Tools for Research, (10) Publishing and Peer Review.
Design the study, run the survey, analyze the responses, write it up in APA — Researchly is built for exactly this loop.
Join the waitlist →The specific friction that slows students in your field down.
Questionnaires live in one app, responses in a spreadsheet, sources in tabs, the draft somewhere else. Nothing connects.
Running head, hanging indents, in-text/reference agreement — formatting eats the time the analysis needed.
Sampling, measures, validity — the section everyone loses marks on is the one no tool helps you think through.
Every feature translated into how your field actually works.
Build your questionnaire inside the project, share it by link or QR, and watch responses land next to your literature — one loop, not four apps.
Turn your data into clean, APA-style charts — grouped comparisons, distributions — captioned and numbered in your paper.
Ask whether your sample justifies your claims, whether your measures fit your constructs, or what a marker would flag in your discussion — grounded in your study.
Structured sections, formatted title page, hanging-indent references generated from your actual source library. Search across 36 sources to build it.
Where research in Psychology takes you.
Literature summaries that are organized from day one.
Your first real study — designed, run, and written up in one place.
A full empirical project with the data trail intact.
Running real studies is what distinguishes grad-school applicants in psychology.
The conference poster, the honors thesis, the first publication.
A real Researchly project end to end: the literature organized by construct, a survey built and distributed inside the project, responses charted into an APA-style figure, and Roy critiquing the limitations section before submission.
Yes — title page, structured sections, and a hanging-indent reference list generated from your source library. (MLA 9, Chicago, and a modern style are also available.)
Yes — build the survey, share it by link, QR, or message, and responses collect inside your project, ready to chart.
That stays with your institution's process — Researchly keeps your protocol, consent text, and materials organized in one place for the application.
Roy helps you reason about your design and interpret your findings against your sources. It's a mentor for your thinking — the analysis decisions remain yours.
No. Roy critiques and strengthens what you write — which is what keeps the work genuinely yours and academically safe.
One organized workspace — built for how psychology students actually work.
