Question 1

How is Gradies different from ChatGPT or Perplexity?

Accepted Answer

Gradies isn't just a chatbot that predicts the next word. It's a multi-agent system that acts like a human researcher: planning a search strategy, reading actual academic papers, verifying every claim, and synthesizing an answer with citations that point to real, existing research.

Question 2

Can I trust the citations?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Unlike standard LLMs which often hallucinate papers, Gradies is ground-truth constrained. It only cites sources it has successfully retrieved and analyzed. If it can't find a paper to support a claim, it won't invent one.

Question 3

How does the 'Multi-Agent' system work?

Accepted Answer

Instead of one AI trying to do everything, we use specialized agents: a 'Planner' breaks down your question, 'Researchers' scour academic databases, 'Critics' evaluate the relevance of findings, and a 'Synthesizer' compiles the verified information into your final report.

Question 4

What sources does Gradies search?

Accepted Answer

We connect directly to trusted academic repositories and open-access databases. We focus on peer-reviewed journals, conference proceedings, and verified pre-prints to ensure the highest quality of information.

Question 5

Is Gradies suitable for all fields of study?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Whether you are researching quantum physics, medieval history, or public health policy, our agents adapt their search strategies and vocabulary to find relevant literature in any domain.

Question 6

Can I use Gradies for literature reviews?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Gradies is designed to accelerate literature reviews by finding key papers, summarizing their findings, identifying research gaps, and allowing you to export the structured results directly.

Question 7

Is my research data private?

Accepted Answer

Security is our priority. Your queries and generated reports are encrypted. We do not use your private research data to train our public models without your explicit permission.

Question 8

How fresh is the research data?

Accepted Answer

Our agents search live databases in real-time. This means you get the most up-to-date papers and pre-prints available at the moment of your query, not just what was in a training dataset from years ago.
