Research Analytics

See Where Life Science Markets Are Moving

Scientific and commercial signals appear across research publications, funding, conferences, clinical trials, patents and corporate filings. Static reports and generic search tools make it difficult to spot trends, what target accounts are working on and where competitor or legacy products remain in use.

PubGrade brings the evidence together so you can analyze change, understand who is driving it and monitor what happens next.

How Research Analytics Works

Build Reusable Intelligence Models With AI

AI helps you start faster. Structured filters, editable logic and visible evidence keep the analysis precise, transparent and reproducible.
Create scientific filter groups with AI

Create scientific filter groups with AI

Ask AI to suggest proteins, targets, techniques, synonyms or related terms. Review the suggestions, modify, add or remove concepts and save the approved logic.
Analyze concepts that occur together

Analyze concepts that occur together

Use saved filter groups to build co-mention analyses across pathways, targets, diseases, techniques or products. Compare how these relationships change by time, organization, geography or source.
Build target and indication & competitor landscapes

Build target and indication & competitor landscapes

Organize targets, indications, development stages and supporting evidence into reusable groups. Apply the same logic across publications, grants, trials, patents and corporate filings.
Example workflow:

Compare two biological pathways

  • Ask PubGrade AI Filter Assistant to create a group containing the relevant markers and synonyms for the MAPK/ERK pathway.
  • Review the proposed markers and save the group in My Filters.
  • Create and save a second group for the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.
  • Create and save four additional groups: dual inhibition, melanoma, breast cancer, and glioblastoma.
  • Use the two pathway groups to find articles mentioning at least one marker from each pathway.
  • Apply the dual inhibition and disease groups for tagging or as user-defined Pivot dimensions.
  • Generate a co-mention matrix showing which markers, pathways and disease contexts appear together.
  • Compare the results by year, university, company, researcher, country, state or data source.
  • Inspect the documents behind relevant intersections to verify the context.
  • Save and version the analysis.
  • Set an alert or export the results.

The result

A complex scientific question becomes a reusable intelligence model rather than a one-time AI response. Your team can inspect the logic, reproduce the analysis and monitor how pathway crosstalk and dual-inhibition patterns change over time and across diseases.
