Folio Research Radar with topic and author subscriptions, citation filters and digest settings.
A discovery agent that surfaces new literature and states, per item, why it kept it: the opposite of an opaque feed.

Follow what matters

Subscribe to research topics, specific authors, journals, or the citations of your own work — Folio surfaces what’s new across them all.

Beyond academia

Track general news, Hacker News, and any RSS feed too — a blog, a newsroom, a Substack, a subreddit. Useful for every field.

Questions, answered

Where does Radar get its data?

OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar and CrossRef for the literature — de-duplicated across all three so the same paper doesn’t arrive twice — plus Google News and Hacker News for general and tech news, and any RSS feed you add. No scraping — all official, keyless sources.

Can I track non-academic sources?

Yes. Beyond papers, follow news topics, Hacker News, and any blog, newsroom, Substack or subreddit that publishes an RSS feed.

How often will I be emailed?

It’s opt-in — pick a weekly or daily digest, or turn email off entirely and just use the in-app feed.
