CoChat

Search and scholarly papers

CoChat brings verifiable academic research into ChatGPT. Search across CrossRef, Semantic Scholar, arXiv, PubMed, OpenAlex, ClinicalTrials, and more — and get real metadata with real DOIs. Verify whether a quoted claim actually appears in its cited paper (and catch misattribution), and confirm a citation's DOI/title before you rely on it. For multi-paper literature reviews, persistent citation libraries, and PRISMA-grade workflows, continue in the full CoChat workspace at app.cochat.ai.

How to use

  1. 1Add it in ChatGPT

    Open CoChat in ChatGPT's Plugin directory (button above), select + to add it and sign in if asked.

  2. 2Use it in a chat

    Type @ in the composer and pick CoChat, or start your message with its name. ChatGPT may also suggest it when it fits what you ask.

Things to ask

  • “Find recent peer-reviewed papers on [topic] and summarize the key findings with full citations.”
  • “Check the citations in this draft — does each reference actually support the claim it's attached to?”
  • “"Share this plan to my CoChat workspace so my team can review and comment on it.”

Disconnect

  1. 1Disconnect it in ChatGPT

    Open Settings, then Apps or Plugins (the label depends on your rollout), select CoChat and choose Disconnect. ChatGPT stops acting through your account; past conversations aren't deleted.
