Literature review writer
Synthesize dozens of papers into a structured, citation-ready literature review in minutes — not weeks.
1
Upload your corpus
Drag in PDFs, BibTeX, or paste abstracts. Meridian indexes everything automatically.
2
Define your angle
Set the research question, thematic clusters, and desired citation style.
3
Generate & refine
Get a full draft with inline citations. Iterate with follow-up prompts until it is submission-ready.
Pro tips
- •Group papers by theme before generating — Meridian respects your cluster labels.
- •Use the “gap analysis” follow-up to identify under-explored areas in your corpus.
- •Export to LaTeX or Word with a single click — all citations preserved.
