Visual literature discovery and monitoring, free plan available
Updated
Litmaps is a literature research platform for students, researchers, professionals and institutions to discover and organize academic papers. It visualizes research topics as maps and sends literature alerts at configurable frequencies. Collaboration features are available on paid plans.
You seed a map with papers, and Litmaps recommends related work and shows it visually by citation relationships and time. You can set alerts to track new papers and share maps with collaborators on paid plans.
Students, researchers, professionals and institutions use Litmaps. The vendor offers discounts for classroom use, institutional deployment and countries with reduced purchasing power.
Free is $0 with up to 20 inputs and 100 articles in 1 map. Pro is $10 per month with unlimited inputs, articles and maps, and annual billing saves 20%. Team and Enterprise are custom.
Litmaps is compared with Elicit and Consensus for AI literature answers, Keenious for recommendations and ChatPDF for reading PDFs.
