What Is the AI Research Tool Picker Wheel?

The AI Research Tool Picker Wheel randomly selects an AI-powered research or search tool from your list. In 2025, AI-powered research has evolved far beyond basic search: Perplexity AI, Grok, ChatGPT Search, Gemini, Elicit, Consensus, Scite, SciSpace, and Research Rabbit all offer different approaches to intelligent information retrieval and synthesis. This picker helps researchers, students, journalists, and knowledge workers explore the full range of available AI research tools.

Why Use the AI Research Tool Picker Wheel?

Perplexity AI has become the leading AI search engine, providing cited answers to complex questions in a conversational format. Elicit specialises in academic research, using AI to extract key findings from scientific papers and systematic reviews. Consensus takes a similar approach, aggregating scientific consensus on research questions. Scite provides AI-powered citation analysis, showing how papers have been cited in context. SciSpace (formerly Typeset) offers AI assistance for reading and summarising research papers. Research Rabbit builds AI-powered citation networks for literature reviews. By spinning the wheel, researchers ensure they use the best available AI tool for each specific research task rather than defaulting to a single platform.
