Overview
Elicit's MCP server gives AI assistants direct access to a corpus of over 125 million academic papers. Search for relevant literature using natural language queries, create structured reports that extract and synthesize data across papers, and retrieve detailed report results — all programmatically. Built for life sciences R&D workflows, the server enables agents to rapidly survey evidence, compare findings across studies, and surface key data points without manual literature review, accelerating everything from target discovery to systematic evidence assessment.
