Introducing Web of Science Research Intelligence for Early Adopters
Research institutions face growing pressure to secure funding, prove societal impact, and guide researchers in responsibly using new technologies. Web of Science Research Intelligence is now available to early adopter customers, offering AI-powered insights that streamline research strategy and evaluation.
This platform integrates rich research data with intelligent AI assistants, helping institutions accelerate innovation and measure their contributions to society. Co-developed with global research leaders, it offers tools that support evidence-based decision-making across all levels of expertise.
Making Research Insight Accessible to All
Web of Science Research Intelligence provides a range of features including performance reporting, expert discovery, emerging topic analysis, and a new societal impact framework. Its embedded AI assistants allow users to ask questions in natural language and receive clear, data-backed answers.
Whether your goal is to identify new research opportunities, build effective teams, or report on global impact, this platform equips researchers, librarians, and administrators with actionable insights quickly and confidently.
Key Features for Early Adopters
- Research Intelligence Assistants: AI tools that support funding discovery, impact analysis, collaboration insights, and topic exploration.
- Funding Opportunities: Search and track funding options aligned with institutional or individual research interests.
- Expert Finder: Discover experts across disciplines and locations with detailed profiles.
- Societal Impact Reporting: Dynamic visualizations offering both retrospective and forward-looking indicators to assess societal contributions.
- Research Performance Reporting: Advanced bibliometric tools to evaluate and benchmark institutional research performance.
These tools help research leaders and analysts plan strategically, prepare competitive grant applications, and track progress on goals such as sustainability.
Clarity and Confidence in Measuring Societal Impact
Demonstrating the societal return on research investment is challenging but increasingly vital. Web of Science Research Intelligence incorporates a framework developed by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) to analyze and benchmark societal contributions across eight key areas—from health to technology and the environment.
This framework combines historical data with forward-looking metrics to create dynamic Societal Impact Profiles. These profiles aid research managers in identifying strengths, comparing performance with peers, and making data-driven decisions to enhance impact.
Collaborative Development for a Dynamic Research Tool
The platform is the result of collaboration among academic institutions, libraries, and research strategists. By linking trusted content with AI-driven insights in a transparent environment, it supports unbiased evaluation of research contributions beyond traditional productivity measures.
Looking ahead, Web of Science Research Intelligence will expand with new AI assistant features, deeper integration, and additional content sources such as grants, preprints, policy documents, clinical trials, news, and institutional records. These enhancements aim to provide a more comprehensive view of the research ecosystem.
Researchers and institutions interested in joining future phases are encouraged to connect and participate in shaping this evolving platform.
