System Pro is a new AI-powered search engine designed to be the most trustworthy, transparent way for researchers and doctors to quickly find, synthesize, and contextualize scientific literature
System Inc., a Public Benefit Corporation developing a systems-based approach to organizing the world’s knowledge, today announced the launch of System Pro: a new AI-powered search engine with explainability and trustworthiness at its core. System Pro is designed to help professionals quickly find, synthesize, and contextualize scientific literature — starting in health and life sciences.
“Search today fails to help professionals keep up with the depth and breadth of research,” said System founder and CEO Adam Bly. “Classic search engines produce lists of thousands of studies, while other AI search engines provide no or few citations and are prone to hallucinations. And crucially, both types of search reinforce disciplinary silos instead of breaking them down — impairing the quality and reliability of our decisions. System Pro marks a new approach to search. It's easier to use than classic search engines; more transparent, reliable and explainable than other AI search engines; and built for discovery, not just search.”
System Pro stands apart by putting rigor, reliability, and trustworthiness at the center of its architecture, combining LLMs with unique structured data and a patented graph architecture. Its novel visualization layer, which shows how topics are statistically related, helps break down disciplinary silos and support systems-based research and solutions.
System Pro is the first application built on top of System, an open graph that organizes information based primarily on statistical relationships rather than semantic ones. Based on a user’s search, System Pro uses AI to synthesize the statistical results from millions of peer-reviewed studies on PubMed, transparently cite all sources used in its synthesis, and recommend and visualize topics that relate statistically to each search. Setting a new industry standard, System Pro shows its work: it integrates citations directly in the text of written syntheses — with an unmatched 36 citations per synthesis — backing up every single claim with transparently cited sources and showing how it came to each.
Based on a search, a user will see an accurate, trustworthy, and up-to-date overview of the relevant research — starting from statistical results — that lets them quickly pinpoint where there’s agreement and disagreement. This synthesis draws on System’s vast graph that includes statistical results from all 35 million studies on PubMed and indexes all 120 million studies on OpenAlex.
Users can find transparent citations of the original peer-reviewed studies used to generate the synthesis, then drill down to see the results that are relevant to their work.
Users can discover topics that are part of the broader system their search falls within to help contextualize a search and uncover new connections and insights.
System Pro is available through a free 10-day trial starting today, and for purchase at a special launch price of $199 per user for a one-year subscription or $20 per month for a monthly subscription. More on System Pro can be found in a blog post published today by System.
System Inc. is a Public Benefit Corporation developing a systems-based approach to organizing the world’s knowledge. Launched in beta in 2022, System is a free and open public resource that aims to explain how everything in the world is related. Since launch, System has served approximately 170,000 users. System Pro, the company’s first commercial application, is an AI-powered search engine that reinvents search for research. System Inc. was founded by scientist and entrepreneur Adam Bly, who previously led data at Spotify after the company acquired his data and analytics start-up Seed Scientific. The company has raised more than $25 million in venture funding from Acrew Capital, Lux Capital, True Ventures, Alpha Wave Global, and other investors. System’s Board and advisors include notable industry leaders including former Thomson Reuters CEO Tom Glocer, former Wikimedia Foundation CEO Katherine Maher, and MIT Press Director Amy Brand.
