“Anara is how we index, search, and summarize our library of scientific literature for clinical study protocols and FDA regulatory filings. We used it heavily for a submission that just went in last week.”
RobertR&D leader, medtech
“We were commissioned to do a systematic review across thousands of papers on a very short timeline. Anara helped us build a high-throughput workflow.”
ClaraConsultant, life sciences
“I threw in 700 papers I’ve been gathering over the years and started asking questions, and it worked out really well. It found a theme I’d never picked up on myself while reading, and it turned out the papers were littered with it. That was super useful.”
AntonPhD student, sociology
“It’s tailored to science and biology, which is why Anara is so powerful. Instead of spending two hours finding papers, it’s very quick and reliable.”
EthanScientist, biotech
“It will tell me when I’m wrong: this is not clear, or this is where you have a gap. A different AI mostly just agrees with me, and that’s not what I’m looking for.”
MeganRegulatory specialist, medtech
“Amazing for scientific research, since Anara shows you exactly where it found the information by highlighting it in the paper. I don’t need to trust an AI, since I can just read the text passage in the paper.”

How often each platform answers questions across many documents correctly.
General AI tools are built for open-ended chat. Anara is built for research. It keeps a persistent library of your papers and data, searches academic literature and science databases like PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov, and ties every claim to the passage it came from. You choose whether it answers from your files, the web, or both. It also does research work chat tools do not: it extracts the same fields from every paper in a folder into a cited table, checks a draft against its sources, and formats citations in your journal's style.
Anara is an AI workspace for science. It helps researchers in academia and industry find, understand, and synthesize the literature, then turn it into cited work, from a thesis or literature review to a regulatory report. Its research agent searches your library, the web, and over 300 million academic papers, reads the full text where available, and answers with citations to the exact passage, so you can check any claim in one click. Use it on the web, on Mac, on iPhone and iPad, inside Microsoft Word, or from AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT.
Plus is $10, Pro is $20, Max 5x is $100 and Max 20x is $200 per seat per month. Billed yearly, they are $8, $16, $80 and $160 per seat per month. Enterprise pricing is custom; contact sales.
Plus raises your usage, lets you buy credits, takes larger uploads, and adds science databases. Pro has 4x the usage of Plus, lets you choose any model, adds OCR for scanned documents, larger uploads, and Google Drive, OneDrive and more connectors. Max adds Workflows, Model Council, uploads with no size or page limit, unlimited collaborators, and priority access at busy times. See the full comparison on the pricing page.
Same features. Max 5x includes 5 times Pro's weekly usage and Max 20x includes 20 times. Switch between them anytime in Settings, then Billing.
Chat, editing, extraction, imports, media and API requests draw from your usage allowance, and stronger models use more. A meter shows how much you have used and when it resets. On Free it refreshes daily; on paid plans it resets in full 7 days after you first use it.
Credits keep a paid workspace running after its included usage runs out. Owners and admins can buy $5 to $1,000 at a time and turn on auto-reload with a monthly cap; members can request credits from an admin. Included usage is always used first. Credits bought on the web expire 12 months after purchase; credit packs bought in the iOS app do not expire.
Work in progress finishes. New requests wait until your allowance resets, or you can add credits or upgrade to keep going.
Paid plans are billed per seat. On any paid plan you can add members to your workspace, change your seat count in Settings, and share folders so everyone works from the same sources. Enterprise adds SSO with SAML, SCIM provisioning, live sync with SharePoint and OneDrive, and a shared support channel.
We do not offer a student discount today. The free plan covers a lot of research, and Plus starts at $8 a month billed yearly.
We offer a 7-day grace period from the date of your first payment. To request a refund, open Support in the app and contact us. Purchases made through the App Store are refunded by Apple.
