The Systematic Review Problem
A typical systematic review takes 6–18 months and costs $40,000+ in researcher time. Most of that time is wasted on tasks that shouldn't require human judgment.
Duplicate hell
The same paper appears under 6 different citation formats across 4 databases. Manual deduplication takes days and still misses some.
Reviewer disagreements
Two reviewers disagree on 15% of papers. No clear process. Spreadsheets go back and forth. Weeks lost.
Compliance overhead
Building PRISMA diagrams, maintaining audit trails, and formatting data for extraction adds weeks of post-screening work.
Everything in One Platform

Journal-ready in minutesResearchers Love LitRev
"We screened 4,200 papers in two days. It used to take our team three weeks. The AI didn't just speed things up — it caught inconsistencies we would have missed."
Dr. S. Adeyemi
Research Lead, Evidence Synthesis Unit
"The PRISMA report generation alone is worth it. What used to be a full day of formatting was done automatically. Our journal submission went out a week early."
A. Müller, PhD Candidate
Systematic Reviewer, Health Technology Assessment
"Managing dual-review with five researchers across three time zones was a nightmare before. LitRev's conflict resolution actually makes it manageable."
Dr. R. Chen
Principal Investigator, Clinical Research Institute
Simple, Transparent Pricing
Covidence charges $450/year per user — with no AI. We think that's wrong.
