System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

It helps you quickly understand what research methods leading humanities and social science journals used recently, so you can design better courses, curricula, and research method training without manually reading thousands of papers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Top-journal method scanning (last 24 months, 14 disciplines): Collects papers via OpenAlex and builds a method coverage map across disciplines.
  • Scalable heuristic method + AI-role tagging: Assigns L1 method families and classifies AI use as AI-as-tool vs AI-as-object, suitable for very large batches.
  • Actionable outputs for teaching: Produces an Excel methods matrix (4 sheets) plus a Markdown trend report scaffold intended for course/teaching translation.

Quick Start

Ask the agent: “Scan top journals for methods for my methods course over the last 24 months, including AI methods.”
