PaperTrace FAQ
What databases does PaperTrace search?
PubMed/MEDLINE is the primary source and works for any topic searchable there. Pro and above unlock multi-source search across Semantic Scholar, Europe PMC, OpenAlex, bioRxiv/medRxiv preprints, and ClinicalTrials.gov.
Is PaperTrace output PRISMA-compliant?
PaperTrace is structured around PRISMA 2020 conventions, including flow diagrams, search strategy documentation, and narrative synthesis. AI-assisted reviews still require methodological transparency and independent author verification.
How accurate is the AI screening and extraction?
PaperTrace is researcher-in-the-loop software. Use it as a high-speed first pass, then verify AI-screened decisions, extracted fields, and source claims before publication.
Can I work on a review with my team?
Yes. Pro and above support multi-reviewer collaboration with project roles, blinded screening mode, and inter-rater agreement calculations.
Is my research data private?
Your research questions, papers, and extracted data are stored privately in your account and are never used to train AI models. Enterprise plans include additional data processing agreements.
