What's inside
Your week is a pile of half-finished tasks. You screen papers for a review, code interview transcripts, clean a dataset, chase citations, and draft a manuscript section, all before Friday. Each one lives in a different tool, and the small steps, like formatting references or checking a claim, eat the hours you need for thinking.
17 research skills
Literature review copilot, qualitative coding, statistical workflow, experimental design, manuscript prep, survey building, ethics guidance, data cleaning and more, ready inside your AI.
515 ready-made prompts
30 topics cover literature reviews, statistical modeling, grant proposals, data visualization and scientific writing. Open one, paste your details, and run it.
8 apps to build
A reviewed evidence workspace, a source-linked writing workbench, a qualitative interview synthesis workspace, a scientific figure studio and a research data cleaning app, all traceable to your sources.
10 Grok Bot agents
A lab protocols agent, an academic researcher, a statistical analysis agent, a grants agent, a survey research assistant and a research data analyst you can hand tasks to.
Works in eight AIs
Use it in ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Gemini, Grok, Grok Bot, Cursor and Kimi. One download, the same skills everywhere you write and analyze.
Daily news and ideas
Members get a live connection for daily AI news for research work, one new idea each day with the prompt to do it, and automatic skill updates.
A day with your plugin
The plugin drops into the AI you already have open. It adds a literature review copilot, a qualitative analysis assistant, an experimental design planner, and more. You ask in plain words. The AI pulls the right skill, keeps your sources linked, and hands back a draft you can check and finish.
- Morning
Before your lab meeting, you open the literature review skill and ask for the three most cited papers on your topic, with a short summary and a gap statement.
- Late morning
A reviewer emails asking you to justify your sample size. The experimental design planner walks you through the power calculation and writes the sentence for your response letter.
- Afternoon
You finish six interviews and need themes by Thursday. The qualitative interview evidence synthesis workspace groups the quotes, labels each theme, and keeps every theme linked to the participant who said it.
- End of day
You paste your manuscript section into the manuscript preparation assistant and ask it to check the references against your library and format the abstract to the journal's word limit.
Install it in your AI
Choose the AI you use. No technical knowledge needed: it's a few clicks and some copy and paste.

Questions
What is a plugin and how do I install it without technical knowledge?
A plugin is a set of instructions and files you add to your AI. You download one file, open your AI, and follow the install steps we send by email. No coding, no setup, no IT ticket needed.
Which AI does it work with?
ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Gemini, Grok, Grok Bot, Cursor and Kimi. You use the AI you already have. Nothing changes in how you log in or where your chats live.
What is the difference between the member download and the $49 one-time plugin?
The $49 standalone plugin gives you the 17 skills, 515 prompts and 8 apps as a one-time download. The member version adds the 10 Grok Bot agents, daily AI news, a new idea every day with its prompt, and automatic skill updates.
Is my data safe?
The plugin is instructions and files, not a service that stores your work. Your chats, transcripts and datasets stay with your AI provider and follow the privacy settings you already have there.
How many downloads do I get?
Members can download two plugins a day. Pick the one for Research Associates now, and come back tomorrow for another role or a second copy for a colleague.
