Elicit says its API and MCP are now generally available, alongside a ground-up rebuild of its search product.
- The team benchmarked the new search on BioASQ, a peer-reviewed biomedical dataset.
- 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.
