What is Consensus
Consensus is an AI academic search and research product for finding papers, generating evidence-based answers, reviewing literature, and inspecting study details. Its plan structure is organised around Papers search, Pro messages, Deep reviews, and Study Snapshots.
Core offerings
- Unlimited Papers search across scholarly literature.
- Pro messages that synthesise evidence and Deep reviews across larger paper sets.
- Study Snapshots covering methodology, sample size, duration, and other study details.
- Team administration, central billing, institutional deployment, and training.

As of July 24, 2026, Consensus lists Free at US$0, Pro at US$20 per month or US$144 per year, Deep at US$65 per month or US$540 per year, Teams at custom pricing based on team size, and Enterprise at a custom quote.
Free includes unlimited Papers searches, 15 Pro messages, three Deep reviews, and 10 Study Snapshots per month. Pro includes unlimited Pro messages, 15 Deep reviews, unlimited Study Snapshots, and unlimited Papers search.
Deep includes everything in Pro but raises the allowance to 200 Deep reviews per month for frequent literature review and clinical or research work. Teams includes Pro features plus 50 Deep reviews per user, discounts for up to 200 seats, individual logins, account management, and central billing.
Enterprise is designed for organisations with more than 200 users and adds larger volume discounts, management for thousands of users, early feature access, central billing, library integrations, user training, search optimisation, and a development-partner programme for qualifying large deployments.
Model footprint
Consensus sells evidence-search modes and review allowances rather than model access. The meaningful commercial measures are Pro-message availability, Deep-review volume, the number of papers examined, and team administration.
Why select Consensus
Consensus is useful when users want fast, research-grounded answers with direct paper context. Pro suits regular research, Deep targets heavy literature-review workloads, and team plans centralise access across labs or departments.
