Before you begin ResearchPilot™ features beyond Help Center Mode are available exclusively on institutional plans with ResearchPilot™ enabled.
ResearchPilot™ is Rayyan's AI-powered suite that supports your review workflow from start to finish — answering questions about Rayyan, helping you explore your dataset, screening articles against your criteria, and extracting structured data from full-text PDFs. It works alongside you, not instead of you. You remain the final decision-maker at every stage.
Access ResearchPilot™ by clicking the Chat with ResearchPilot™ tab on the left side of your review. It is available from the Review data, Screening, and Full text screening stages.
The five modes
ResearchPilot™ has five modes, each designed for a specific stage and purpose:
| Mode | What it does | Available in |
|---|---|---|
| Help Center | Answers questions about Rayyan in natural language and links to relevant Help Center articles. Supports multiple languages. | Review data, Screening, FTS |
| Review Articles | Loads your articles and lets you explore them using relevance scoring (0–1) and Q&A about your dataset. | Review data, Screening, FTS |
| AI Reviewer | Automated screening assistant that evaluates every article against your inclusion and exclusion criteria and generates Include/Exclude decisions with reasoning. | Screening |
| AI Analyzer | On-demand article evaluation — select specific articles, run the AI, and get an Include/Exclude recommendation with detailed criteria-based justification. | Screening |
| Auto Extraction | Reads full-text PDFs and populates your Data Extraction form automatically based on the questions you defined. | Data extraction |
ResearchPilot™ and your judgment
ResearchPilot™ is a decision-support tool — it suggests, explains, and highlights, but never overrides your decisions. Every AI suggestion can be accepted, deleted, or ignored. Always validate AI-generated results before exporting or treating them as final.
