- Suggested questions come from missing links in a literature graph.
- Each question stays tied to nearby topics, supporting paths, and starter papers.
- The browser lets you inspect why a question surfaced before deciding whether it is worth reading.
Organizing open questions in economics.
Browse suggested research questions surfaced from missing links in a literature graph.
As AI makes drafting, coding, and review cheaper, one hard part of research remains difficult to automate: asking the right question.

How to read the map
Start with one short path.
Start with one nearby chain of topics. It shows how one topic already leads into another in the surrounding literature and gives you a concrete way to read the map.
- Circles are topics.
- Arrows show one topic leading into another in nearby papers.
- One short path is often enough to see the mechanism linking two sides of a question.
