Research Agents
Learn how to use research agents for literature review, peer review, proofreading, draft writing, and more.
Introduction
What Are AI Research Agents?
Nubint's AI research agent is one unified chat that handles everything — topic brainstorming, drafting, review. It calls dedicated workflows automatically: Literature Review, Peer Reviewer, Proofreader. AI Paper Search adds semantic discovery across 460M+ papers.
How to Use AI Research Agents?
Open AI Chat and pick an agent from the list above the chat input, or click an agent in the left sidebar. Each run deducts credits based on your plan, and results are saved to your chat history, library, and documents for later reference.
Review
What is AI Peer Reviewer?
The Peer Reviewer agent evaluates your paper across four areas: structure, logical flow, methodology, and citations. It analyzes strengths and weaknesses from a journal-review perspective with improvement suggestions for each, after which you can finish with the Proofreader.
What is AI Proofreader?
The Proofreader agent reviews grammar, academic expressions, sentence structure, and terminology consistency with specific corrections for each. It converts informal language to academic tone and simplifies complex sentences, best used after Peer Review for a final polish.
How to Stop Requests and Use Search Toggles
The stop button in AI Chat immediately halts any ongoing response, while toggles let you control external and library paper search independently. Keep external search on during exploration and switch to library-only during writing to focus on papers you already have.
How to Add Context
The Add Context button lets you select specific papers or collections from your library so AI bases its responses on those materials. Use it when asking about a specific paper, analyzing a collection, or specifying references for AI editing. Contexts appear as removable chips.
How to Create a New Chat
Click the New Chat button at the top of the chat panel to start a fresh conversation while auto-saving the previous one. Use it when switching research questions or when a conversation loses focus, and return to previous chats anytime from the chat list.
