The listed platforms are Android, iOS, web, and API.

LeapSpace

LeapSpace is a web-based AI research workspace for academic and industry researchers, librarians, academic leaders, and research office teams. It handles complex interdisciplinary searches, follow-up questions, and returning to earlier queries. Deep Research creates reports that identify patterns, contradictions, and evidence gaps while showing the steps used to produce each report. Writing Coach checks claims against recent research and highlights evidence gaps without making automatic edits. Trust Cards show how a claim relates to its cited source, while Claim Radar examines the claim across the wider research landscape. LeapSpace draws on Scopus-indexed content, full-text articles and book chapters from Elsevier and participating publishers, plus curated funding data. Users can upload up to five PDF files per conversation. Reading Assistant works only with documents the user is entitled to access. Individual subscriptions include AI features in Mendeley Reference Manager, while organization subscriptions list optional Scopus integration, administration, analytics, SSO/SAML, onboarding, training, and customer support.
