Pricing
ScholarIQ has three plans and a free trial. Projects are unlimited on every one of them — the difference is how many people work in it and how much support comes with it.

How pricing works
Start with the trial
Fourteen days, one user, up to 10,000 articles. It is a working account, not a demo, so you can scope a real question.
Projects are unlimited
Every plan, the trial too, has unlimited projects. The plans differ in how many people work in it and how much support comes with it.
Pay monthly, in US dollars
Single user is $29 a month. Team is $49 a month and adds unlimited collaborators and stakeholders, and priority support.

What the trial does and does not include
The trial is a real working account rather than a demo, but it is deliberately narrower than a paid plan.
Fourteen days, single user.
Up to 10,000 articles. Unlimited projects within that.
Restricted access to the AI query engine, and limited access to risk-of-bias, data extraction and dedicated support.
An institutional email address is required to create the account, and some locations are excluded.
Larger reviews
PICO Portal is the enterprise platform behind ScholarIQ, sold as an annual subscription with unlimited projects, citations and collaborators, and with systematic-review methodologists available as a managed service. It is priced per organisation, so there is no list price to quote.
This atlas is free
Nothing on this domain is behind a plan. The topics, papers, researchers, institutions and journals pages need no account and are built from openly licensed metadata — see sources.
