Rayyan

Screening thousands of abstracts for a systematic review is slow, and Rayyan is built to cut that down.

Rayyan is a research tool for systematic literature reviews that uses AI-assisted screening to speed up the process of deciding which studies to include, and it lets a whole team work on the same review.

It automatically finds and removes duplicate references, which saves a tedious cleanup step before screening even starts.

Customizable filters and bulk actions help you sort large reference sets without handling each record one by one.

Because Rayyan integrates with popular reference management tools, you can bring in the libraries you already have rather than starting from scratch.

Collaboration is a central part of the platform, so several reviewers can screen the same set of records together.

The pricing model is listed as free, though full access may carry a cost depending on the plan you use.

Two catches are worth knowing.

The platform is web-based, so you need an internet connection.

And since AI helps with screening, you should validate its suggestions carefully rather than trust them blindly.
