Sharly now connects to Zotero and Mendeley, so you can ask questions across the collections you’ve already built, without uploading a single paper.

January 2024. 137 engineering students in Latvia were asked which AI tools they used in their English-for-specific-purposes course.

9.5% named Sharly, in a table of tools for analysing PDFs and summarising research articles.

Before any Sharly answer goes into a paper:

1- Open the cited excerpt 2- Read the passage in the original 3- Confirm it supports your sentence as written 4- Cite the original, not Sharly 5- Record version and date

A master’s thesis in engineering started with 42 AI tools.

From a systematic review published this summer:

“Eligibility determinations, study classification, data extraction, and interpretation of findings were performed by the authors and were not delegated to artificial intelligence software.”

Sharly is an instrument, not a source.

Cite it for the method: screening, data extraction, content analysis.

Sharly is citable.

A versioned technical note, archived on Zenodo with a DOI: what Sharly does, how its citations work, and what it cannot do.

Journals now ask you to disclose every AI tool you used.

Most AI tools give you nothing to cite: no version, no identifier, no document describing what they do.

A better model makes fewer mistakes. A source on the exact page lets you catch the rest.

Sharly now runs on GPT-6.

Research is hard in specific places: methods sections, statistics, results that disagree across papers.

That's where Sharly on GPT-6 now does its best work. Every claim is still sourced to the page.

You get sharper reading of dense papers and fewer factual mistakes, and every answer still links to the exact page it came from.

Most AI tools answer from somewhere on the internet. Sharly answers from your files and shows you the page.

Sharly answers only from the documents you upload. Every claim has a numbered source that opens the exact page. If you can't check it, you can't cite it.

Universities can't let their researchers and students use AI on academic documents because nothing they get back is verifiable or governed.

Sharly is source-grounded AI for documents that institutions can deploy campus-wide with admin control.

Most AI tools can't be cited. They don't show where an answer came from, and there's nothing for a reviewer to check.

Sharly is built for the methods section: passages you can verify, and a technical note with a DOI describing exactly how it works, limitations included.

Dozen published papers, theses and preprints already refer to Sharly — but there was no canonical way to cite it.

Now there is: a technical note with a DOI, plus every one of those works listed with its link.

Journals require you to disclose any AI tool you used. Most researchers have no idea how to word it.

So we wrote the sentence for you, and gave Sharly a DOI so you can cite it properly.

A technical note on Zenodo describes how it works, what it does, and its limits — with a DOI you can put in your reference list.
