The workspace

A workspace designed for one thing: your thesis.

A five-step research path

Find your question → proposal → outline → chapters → citations. Guided, not generated.

Citation engine grounded in 250M+ open papers

Insert citations as you write. Export APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard, BibTeX, or RIS — no hallucinated sources, ever.

"

Sources, notes & highlights — attached to the chapter they support

Library, annotations, and margin notes travel with your draft.

Advisor collaboration, in the same document.

Advisors read as a document, comment inline, and suggest sources — no more Word tracked changes over email.

For students

Less chasing. More finishing.

From a rough topic to a defended chapter — Chapter 5 keeps sources, notes, feedback, and citations in one thread.

  • Turn a topic into a question you can defend
  • Keep every source tied to the chapter it supports
  • Export citations when the draft is ready

Academic integrity

Transparency over detection.

Every topic explored, question pinned, proposal revised, paper opened, and AI suggestion accepted — logged and shareable with your advisor. Chapter 5 doesn't hide AI use. It makes it visible.

In their words

Trusted in seminars, defended in committees.

"Finally — a tool that respects the discipline of research. My students cite more, hallucinate less, and actually read the papers."

Dr. Lena Vasquez

Faculty Advisor, Computational Linguistics

"I went from 40 open tabs to one workspace. My advisor sees exactly where I am, every week."

Arman P.

Master's candidate, Public Health

"The activity timeline is what sold our department. AI transparency is non-negotiable now."

Prof. Henrik Olsen

Director of Graduate Studies
