- They compared Elicit with Consensus, Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, and Google Scholar.
- Elicit reported the highest recall at every tested depth from 10 to 200 results.
- At 50 results, it retrieved 60.3% of the papers that experts judged sufficient to answer the question, versus 47.4% for the next-best system.
