A: Happy Monday nkhivasara, while I'm not entirely experienced in equity research, I believe Afforai can be a good fit.

Afforai is the all-in-one workspace designed for researching and writing, aiding users in managing references, conducting literature reviews, annotating files, taking notes, and crafting papers. Our primary objective is to empower our users to create exceptional, research-backed papers.

Semantic Scholar Al mode in Afforai gives you access to over 200 million peer-reviewed papers from the Semantic Scholar database. When you use this mode, the Al would read the summaries of the papers that are most relevant to your search prompt to suggest papers, you can then one click upload it to Afforai and switch to Document Retrieval mode to do a deep dive.

Our Document Retrieval mode in the Afforai Al research assistant, with this you can connect your library to serve as a knowledge base to help the Al generate the answers. And give visual data sources and citations where the Al got the information from. This Al mode would actually read the content of the scholar articles you upload to Afforai.

*Semantic Scholar is a database that contains over 200 million academic papers across all disciplines, including biology, medicine, computer science, geography, business, history, and economics.
