For students writing to real labs

Outreach that feels
researched, not mass-mailed.

Find the right faculty across five databases, draft messages grounded in their actual work, review every word, and send only what reads like a prepared student wrote it.

Five sources. One shortlist.

OpenAlex, Crossref, DBLP, arXiv, and Semantic Scholar — searched in parallel, plus any journal by name or ISSN. Pick exactly who you can genuinely reference.

Targeted discovery

Search by topic, university, journal, or arXiv sub-field — and pull corresponding-author emails straight from PDF headers.

Grounded drafts

Messages written from each professor's real research with a premium model — never generic, never fabricated.

You approve everything

Specificity and tone scored 1–10, spam-risk flags, and a human approval step before anything sends.

The slow part, done right.

Built for reading, comparing, and choosing carefully — not blasting two hundred identical emails.
