Map the research frontier · predict where it moves next

FrontierPath

Map the cutting edge of any field: break it into 15–20+ research directions, find the papers behind each, expand and split them, rank them by how lucrative they are (1–1000), and forecast where the frontier moves next — powered by Claude on Bedrock.

🧭 Map & predict the research frontier

Seed with papers (arXiv id, DOI, title, URL, or a PDF), map the directions the field is pushing, expand any direction to pull in more papers, then let Claude predict where the cutting edge goes next. Everything is stored in your shared paper library.
Mode:

🔬 Paper search → concept harvesting

Searches papers via Apify on the backend, shows you the top results, you tick the ones you want, then Extract concepts turns them into cards via Claude Sonnet 4.6 (Bedrock). Tokens stay on the backend — set its URL in Settings.

🔐 Backend (Bedrock + Apify)

All tokens live on the backend, never in the browser. The backend calls Claude Sonnet 4.6 on AWS Bedrock and Apify for paper search. See backend/.

🧠 Answer mode

How Ask and concept-generation are powered.
Backend mode requires the backend running and reachable at the URL on the left.
Canonical data lives in concepts-data.json; the app seeds it into IndexedDB on first run and persists your learned status, questions, and discovered concepts there.
