Frequently Asked Questions

OnlyScience is a personal research library for medical literature. Search a topic and OnlyScience reads the matching papers with AI, turning them into structured study cards you can browse, filter, and cite. It goes beyond cards: briefs summarize the research on your topics and email you weekly updates as new studies are published. It is the ideal tool for doctors who want to stay up to date with the science, and for anyone who wants to take control of their own health.

Every paper is a peer-reviewed study from the published medical literature. OnlyScience processes the studies you choose and links each finding back to the original publication, so you can always check a claim against its source.

No. OnlyScience reads only peer-reviewed medical literature. Comment threads, blog posts, podcast transcripts and social media are never sources for a study card or a brief.

Each study card is built only from the paper it cites, and every card links to the original publication so you can check it yourself. If a claim is not in the paper, it is not on the card.

You get free credits when you sign up. Processing new papers uses credits, and you can buy more or subscribe when you need a bigger library. Your existing library stays accessible either way.

Briefs are automated research updates. Pick the topics you care about, and every week OnlyScience checks for new papers and emails you a short summary. You can edit a brief or unsubscribe from the emails at any time.

Doctors who want to stay current, researchers screening literature, and anyone who prefers primary sources over headlines. No medical background is required.
