Open catalog of research papers, authors and institutions.

Open catalog of research papers, authors and institutions.
OpenAlex indexes half a billion scholarly works, with their authors, institutions, sources and topics, free to search and reuse. Connected to a workspace, GBrain can answer “what are the most cited papers on battery recycling since 2022, and which labs wrote them?” or check a reference list before it goes out.
Signing in happens on OpenAlex’s own page, and queries run on that account’s daily budget. Only the author-profile tools make changes, and only to the signed-in person’s own profile.
GBrain gives OpenAlex a command line too. From a terminal, a
script or Claude Code,
gbrainio tool help openalex
lists its commands once it is connected.
