Amass
By Amass Technologies ApS
Amass connects your assistant to six curated biomedical corpora: BioMedCore (39M+ peer-reviewed publications from PubMed/PMC), TrialCore (575K+ clinical trials from ClinicalTrials.gov), DrugCore (22K+ harmonized drugs/molecules covering modality, clinical stage, structure, synonyms, and the gene targets each drug acts on; ChEMBL-linked), RegulatoryCore (7K+ unified FDA + EMA marketing authorizations with source documents such as labels, reviews, SmPCs, and EPARs), GeneCore (43K+ harmonized human genes with a target-intelligence layer covering druggability, DepMap essentiality, ChEMBL target class, clinical-precedent tractability, curated safety liabilities, and gnomAD constraint), and PatentCore (preview, life-science patents with full-text search, CPC/IPC classifications, assignees/inventors, and patent families). Users can search and retrieve full records with filters that beat open-web retrieval, and follow cross-links across corpora back to each underlying source.

smarts.bio: AI for biology
By smarts.bio
smarts.bio brings a real bioinformatics platform into ChatGPT. Describe your analysis in plain English and run actual tools and pipelines on your own data — no scripting or setup required. What you can do: Run sequence searches and analyses — BLAST, GC content, ORFs, domains, and more across DNA, RNA, and protein Call and annotate variants, align reads (WES, RNA-seq), and run quality-control and other multi-step pipelines Upload and manage workspace files, then open results — FASTA, BAM, VCF, PDB, CSV — in interactive viewers Search genes, literature, and patents alongside your analysis Who it's for: biologists, bioinformaticians, computational biologists, and researchers who'd rather describe an analysis than wire up the tooling. Connect your smarts.bio account to get started. Long-running jobs keep working in the background, and your files stay in your own workspace.

Scholar Sidekick
By Mark Lavercombe
Scholar Sidekick MCP resolves any scholarly identifier (DOI, PMID, PMCID, ISBN, arXiv, ISSN, NASA ADS bibcodes, WHO IRIS URLs) into structured bibliographic metadata, formats citations in 10,000+ CSL styles (Vancouver, APA, AMA, IEEE, Chicago, Harvard, MLA, Nature, BMJ, Lancet, and many more), and exports references to BibTeX, RIS, CSL JSON, EndNote (XML/Refer), RefWorks, MEDLINE, Zotero RDF, and CSV. The format/export/resolve tools accept a single identifier or a comma/newline-separated batch, so an assistant can chain resolveIdentifier → formatCitation → exportCitation in one prompt for an end-to-end 'raw IDs → exportable bibliography' workflow. Three single-citation checks complete the picture: checkRetraction surfaces retractions, corrections, and expressions of concern from Crossref / Retraction Watch; checkOpenAccess returns OA status and the best legal landing or PDF URL from Unpaywall; verifyCitation cross-checks the cited title against the resolved record at the cited identifier to detect the AI-driven fabrication pattern documented by Topaz et al. (Lancet 2026 — 1 in 277 biomedical papers in early 2026 contains at least one fabricated reference; the dominant pattern is real DOI + invented title, which simple identifier resolution cannot catch). Each formatted response carries a provenance metadata block (formatter, styleUsed, requestId, warnings) so users can see exactly which engine produced each citation.
