New here: PhD researcher building the tool I always wished existed

Hey everyone
I'm a researcher and first time solo founder.

For years, every literature review meant juggling eight different tools and spending most of my time on logistics instead of actual thinking. I finally got fed up and built the thing I wished existed: IntelliResearch, where one search pulls papers, a cited literature review, datasets, code, patents, conferences, and grants into one place.

I designed, built, and shipped the whole thing myself, so honestly I'm here to learn from this community as much as anything: how you launched, what worked, what you'd do differently the second time.

Would love to connect with other solo founders and anyone building in AI or research tools. What are you all working on right now?

IntelliResearch: one search for papers, a cited review, datasets, grants & more

Hey everyone
I'm a researcher, and I got tired of juggling eight tools for a single literature review: Scholar, arXiv, Semantic Scholar, a citation mapper, an LLM to synthesize, Zotero, Papers With Code, and a doc for the comparison table.

So I built IntelliResearch. You type a topic once and it runs a dozen AI agents in parallel: papers across six databases, a literature review synthesized only from those papers (every claim cited, not hallucinated), a comparison table, research gaps, and a proposal you can export to PDF. It also finds datasets, code, patents, conferences with deadlines, and grants.

Free to try, no card needed: https://intelliresearch.tech

It's early and mostly just me, so I'd genuinely love honest feedback, especially where it breaks for your field. What's the most manual part of your research workflow right now?

Building an all-in-one research assistant — what would make it a must-have for you?

Hey all I'm a researcher building IntelliResearch: one search that pulls papers, a cited literature review, datasets, code, patents, conferences, and grants together, instead of the eight separate tools I used to juggle.

As I get ready to launch, I want to make sure it solves the right pain. So a genuine question for anyone who does research: what's the single most annoyingly manual part of your workflow right now? The part where you think "a computer should just do this for me."

For me it was rebuilding a comparison table by hand for every literature review. Curious what yours is. It genuinely shapes what I build next.
