Home – Iris.ai - Your Science Assistant

The future of Science

We’ve built AI tools to take you from a problem to a precise reading list in less than two days. Read more.

We are also launching Project Aiur to open up and validate science in a tokenized model. You can join in these efforts today!

Full research landscape mapping

Use the Exploration tool starting from your free text description of the problem and a result editor, to build a large corpus of documents related to the problem statement. Use the iterative Focus tool to narrow down to a precise reading list.

Natural Language Understanding

Iris.ai uses a combination of keyword extraction, word embeddings, neural topic modeling, word importance based similarity of document metrics and hierarchical topic modeling. The approach is mainly unsupervised but we utilize an evaluated annotation set from our community of AI Trainers for benchmarking and improving our tools.

Key information extraction
Key terms identification. Marking of possible contextually disambiguating information. Forming basis for a document fingerprint.

Neural Topic Modelling
Clustering of semantically similar documents. Cluster labeling. Document fingerprint update.

WISDM
Fingerprints are matched using the WISDM document similarity metric.
Basis for document fingerprint indexing.

HOURS SAVED

PER YEAR

WITH A TEAM OF

RESEARCHERS

Saved time and increased radical discovery

Industrial researchers use on average 3 weeks to build a reading list, with a self-reported 70% confidence. Using the systematic academic approach, we save you time and resources – while increasing the chances of groundbreaking interdisciplinary discovery.

Up to 90% time reduction
85% precision
