Research Toolkit
Research Toolkit starts with a bounded question and the decision it should inform. It helps you find and assess sources, analyze supplied interviews or notes, check claims and turn warranted findings into a next step.
Every finding should point back to its source.
What can you do with it?
- 01
Investigate a question with traceable sources
Find, date and assess sources, compare options against your requirements and state what the evidence doesn't cover.
- 02
Make sense of what people said
Plan interviews and usability studies, then analyze supplied notes for findings tied to real excerpts.
- 03
Check claims and hand off findings
Audit reports for unsupported claims, write and revise academic work, and turn research into a decision or plan.
Start with one question.
State the question, the decision it informs and any sources, notes or requirements you have. For a narrow job, ask directly for source finding, a report check or academic writing.
Compare these two approaches against my requirements and show the evidence: [approaches] [requirements]. Use these sources and any you can find, date each one, and list what the evidence still doesn't answer.
Bring: Your requirements and candidate sources. Expect: A source-linked comparison with open questions.

Research from supplied files works without any connection. Current public research needs your host's web access. Optional helpers use Python 3, and the Research Compass bridge needs your own backend. Check the requirements.
