Turn 5 Articles into a Research Briefing Doc

Paste your sources (links, PDFs, copied text) and get a structured briefing doc with key insights, tensions, and implications.

Follow along using:

Reading five articles and synthesising them into a coherent brief used to take two hours. The scanning, the note-taking, the "what does this mean for us" thinking. Claude can do the synthesis in minutes. You spend your time on the thinking that only you can do.

1

Define your research question

Before you paste anything, tell Claude what you're trying to answer. A focused research question produces a much sharper brief than "summarise these links."
