Frequently asked questions

What's the best AI for analyzing research data without coding?

Julius AI lets you ask questions about a dataset (CSV, Excel) in English and get graphs and statistical tests instantly. Hex and Deepnote work better if you know some coding and want a collaborative notebook.

How do you extract numerical data from scientific articles?

Elicit does exactly this: it reads hundreds of articles and automatically extracts results, sample sizes, and methods into a comparison table, something no standard data science tool does.

You work as researcher and want to automate “analyzing research data”?
