Gatsbi
Last updated:
Gatsbi is a next-generation AI co-scientist that combines research ideation with full academic writing in a single platform. Rather than simply generating text, it begins by analyzing a research topic to detect existing knowledge gaps and proposing 10 or more original research ideas, each scored for originality and paired with relevant references. Users can then expand any idea into a detailed implementation plan, after which Gatsbi's integrated Deep Research Agent collects and synthesizes evidence to produce a fully formatted manuscript of up to 5,000 words (approximately 12 to 16 pages). The platform supports methodological, experimental, case study, and mixed-methods papers, and generates content that meets the publication standards of EI Compendex, SCI, and SSCI venues. Beyond academic writing, Gatsbi drafts comprehensive patent disclosures including background surveys, novelty analyses, embodiments, and formal claims. All output is exportable in MS Word, LaTeX, or Markdown. Operated by Clouchie Limited and Dalian Yunzhui Technology Co., the platform serves over 100,000 researchers across 150 or more countries.
How It Works
Gatsbi follows a three-stage workflow that mirrors how human researchers actually operate. In the first stage (Innovator), the user inputs a research topic and Gatsbi scans existing literature to detect gaps, then generates 10 or more innovative hypotheses with originality scores and supporting references. In the second stage, the user selects a hypothesis and Gatsbi expands it into a detailed implementation blueprint. In the third stage (Writer), the user triggers paper generation: a built-in Deep Research Agent automatically collects and synthesizes evidence from real sources, then assembles a fully formatted draft with equations, figures, in-text citations, and a bibliography. For patent work, the same flow produces a multi-section disclosure document. The platform supports both a web version and a desktop application. Desktop Pro users benefit from local storage with no activity recording. A Humanizer plugin can be applied post-generation to reduce AI detection signals. The entire pipeline from topic input to exportable draft runs within the platform.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I submit the paper generated by Gatsbi for publication?
Gatsbi is an assistance tool for innovation. It is your responsibility to verify the feasibility of the AI-generated ideas, conduct proper experiments, and document the results. Any form of academic misconduct, including submitting AI-generated content without proper validation and acknowledgment, is strictly denounced.
How does Gatsbi pricing work?
Gatsbi offers a 1-day free trial with selected features, no payment method required. Monthly Pro is $19.99/month with unlimited usage across all features. Yearly Pro is $159.99/year, saving 33% compared to monthly billing. All paid plans include unlimited paper and hypothesis generation.
Which AI models does Gatsbi use?
Gatsbi is not based on a single model. It orchestrates different AI models (e.g., different versions of ChatGPT or a hybrid of Qwen, DeepSeek, Llama, etc.) to optimize the balance between capabilities and costs. Desktop users can also bring their own API keys for OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google.
Are the citations from real sources?
Yes. Gatsbi generates citations from actual published academic papers found in databases. However, we recommend verifying all references before submission, as AI citation accuracy continues to improve but is not yet perfect.
Will AI detectors flag the output?
Gatsbi has integrated a Humanizer plugin that significantly reduces the likelihood of your paper being flagged as AI-generated. It optimizes language patterns to retain a natural, human-like, academic tone. While AI detectors can still produce false positives, the Humanizer greatly enhances the authenticity of the text.
