Index any paper
Public, private, and unpublished: paper PDFs, Zotero exports, preprint folders, lab notes, proceedings, and methods appendices.
Research workspace
Workspace mode indexes your private paper library: lab notebooks, unpublished preprints, conference proceedings, and Zotero exports alongside public literature. Every claim cites a paper, page, and paragraph.
Built for PhD students, postdocs, PIs, and industry labs that need cited synthesis without sending unpublished work into a hosted research silo.

PRISMA-auditable extraction
Review evidence
Sentence-level citations

Complement, not lock-in
How it works
Leapable keeps the research workflow close to the source library: import the export, index it into a private research vault, ask from Cursor, and verify the exact paper paragraph before the synthesis enters a manuscript or grant.
The review clock
More than 138 million papers are searchable in public research systems. Your lab has 5,000 PDFs, unpublished preprints, and internal notes that those systems do not index by default. You spend weeks on a review, ChatGPT cites papers that do not exist, and useful Elicit or Consensus work still leaves the private library gap open.
60-second research demo
The demo uses an AceMap-style paper set plus unpublished lab preprints. Ask what mechanism the latest papers propose, then inspect each cited sentence in the source PDF.
Input
5,000-paper Zotero export, lab preprints, and notes from the last grant cycle.
Ask
What is the latest mechanism proposed for disease resistance?
Evidence
Sentence-cited synthesis with links into the exact paper paragraph.
Transcript pending until the research walkthrough is uploaded.
Capabilities
Public, private, and unpublished: paper PDFs, Zotero exports, preprint folders, lab notes, proceedings, and methods appendices.
Every answer carries a paper, page, and paragraph so researchers can verify the sentence before it enters a grant or manuscript.
Compare your lab's private library with public literature in the same workspace without forcing unpublished work into a public-only tool.
Use Leapable for private papers, Elicit for systematic-review workflows, and Consensus for yes-or-no evidence checks. Your AI client can use all of them.
Typical tasks
01
Drop 5,000 PDFs, ask by research question, receive a sentence-cited synthesis and a review evidence table.
02
Load a reading list, group papers by concept, then traverse the field with cited anchors back to each paragraph.
03
Add lab notebook PDFs and paper folders, then ask what a colleague found about a topic in 2023 with source links preserved.

Offer
All tiers include 191 MCP tools, 10 MCP client configurations, sentence-level citations, no training on your work, and portable local backup.
Trust
No. Leapable does not train on your private paper library, lab notes, unpublished preprints, or grant drafts.
Today the workspace is per-machine. Workspace sync via a shared file store is Phase 2 work; for now, use portable vault backup for lab storage and handoff.
PDF, Markdown, and plain text are supported today. Native TeX and BibTeX parsing is roadmap work.
Use Zotero-exported PDFs or supported text, CSV, and Markdown metadata today. Native BibTeX, RIS, and CSL JSON import is not shipped yet.
Yes. Use Leapable for private papers and lab notes, Elicit for systematic-review workflows, and Consensus for yes-or-no evidence checks.
Install Leapable, connect your AI client, and turn a private reading list into cited synthesis before the next grant deadline.
