ResearchRadar MCP - AI-Powered Research Discovery & Paper Intelligence

An MCP app on the Model Context Protocol built by Prompt Protocol at the Amrita University Coimbatore NitroStack × MCP To The Moon hackathon and deployed on NitroStack.

About this project

ResearchRadar MCP is an open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants to discover, analyze, and organize academic research through natural language. It helps developers, students, researchers, and knowledge workers search for relevant papers, summarize findings, compare research, and build curated reading lists directly within MCP-compatible clients such as Claude, Cursor, and other AI tools. Built with TypeScript and designed for extensibility, ResearchRadar simplifies literature exploration by turning scattered academic sources into structured, actionable insights through a standard MCP interface. It also helps identify the research gap and facilitates a comprehensive literature review. It helps innovators and entrepreneurs to find new ideas that could be commercialized.
