Consensus

An overview of the Consensus.app tool

What Does Consensus Search?

Consensus's corpus includes over 200 million academic documents across all domains of science – primarily peer-reviewed journal articles, along with some conference papers and preprints.

Consensus has built this corpus by aggregating data from three major sources:

  • Semantic Scholar
  • OpenAlex
  • Its own crawl of the scholarly web to fill in important coverage gaps

By combining these sources, Consensus claims to cover nearly all of the highest-impact journals and the entirety of PubMed.
