Your research question, finally at the centre of everything.
Researchers today have tools for finding papers. What does not exist is a tool that evaluates them against your specific question. Vera tells you whether a paper is relevant to what you are actually trying to figure out, which parts matter, what role it plays in your inquiry, and how it connects to everything you have already read. Built on open models. Every output traceable to the source. Nothing invented.
From flood to understanding.
THE_RESEARCH_QUESTION
Start with your question.
Every existing tool is organised around papers. Vera is organised around your inquiry. You enter your research question or thesis and it becomes the axis around which everything else is arranged. Change your question at any time and Vera re-evaluates your entire library against it.
RELEVANCE_EVALUATION
Know immediately what matters and what does not.
Upload a paper by PDF, DOI, or URL. Vera evaluates it against your question and returns a verdict: relevant, partially relevant, or not relevant. Every verdict is explained in plain language and traced to specific passages in the source document. Confidence levels are always shown. Nothing is hidden.
ROLE_CLASSIFICATION
Understand how each paper serves your inquiry.
Vera classifies the role every relevant paper plays: foundational background, supplementary evidence, contradictory finding, preliminary data, or methodological reference. A paper can hold multiple roles. You can change any classification at any time. Vera assists your judgment. It does not replace it.
THE_KNOWLEDGE_MAP
Watch your understanding of the field take shape.
As you process papers, Vera builds a living knowledge map organised around your question. Papers cluster by role. Connections form between papers that share claims, address similar aspects of your inquiry, or reach contradictory conclusions. The map grows with every paper you add. It is not a citation graph. It is a thinking map.
Why this had to be built.
New academic papers published every year. The flood is not slowing down.
Tools that evaluate papers against your specific research question. Until now.
Of literature review time spent determining relevance. Vera gives that time back.
Founding principle. Every Vera output is traceable to its source. Nothing is invented.

Vera is in closed beta at IIIT Hyderabad. We are opening access to researchers at other institutions shortly. Join the waitlist to receive early access and to help shape what Vera becomes.
