Consensus made researching evidence-backed techniques for anxiety reduction quick and easy
This works like a dream. I'll give you a concrete example...
As a parent of a child with multiple special needs, we are always looking for answers we can trust. But when you ask Google for answers, you get hit with a barrage of blog posts from whackadoos peddling conspiracy theories that they've invented, misheard, or misinterpreted from reading scientific studies without really knowing how.
So we've been increasingly asking ChatGPT, Claude et al instead, which is much more more efficient, but prone to hallucination, so you can't really trust that either.
But with Consensus plugged in, you can get a list of only valid answers, including clickable links to the actual studies.
Efficient and trustworthy.
Great job @eols76 and team!
Another great product! I was wondering what triggers the use of the consensus plugins? How does it work with languages other than English? If I've understood correctly, it summarises the publications found by consensus.
Their UX helped us to define the user flow for the academic environment, as they provide access to scientific papers, and we provide access to 3.1 M+ datasets/indicators that we validated to see where those indicators were previously used in scientific research in a database of 156 M+ scientific records.
Excellent product. Wondering if there are storage and retrieval plans for individual users on the roadmap.
I appreciate the confidence Consensus' scientific-based answers provide me when researching topics new and old... especially in today's partisan & combative political/news climate.
