About RAlert

RAlert is a free, AI-powered research alert platform — a modernized version of PubCrawler, the beloved 1999 tool that served over 70,000 researchers worldwide for two decades. RAlert is part of the rsminds research toolkit.

The Problem

Researchers drown in literature. PubCrawler solved this in 1999 by automating PubMed keyword alerts. But PubCrawler is now outdated — limited to biomedical papers only, no AI, no mobile support, and its infrastructure is aging.

The Solution

RAlert keeps PubCrawler's core magic — set alerts once, papers come to you — and adds:

  • All disciplines: 200M+ papers via Semantic Scholar, not just biomedical
  • AI-powered alerts: Weekly emails with TLDRs, trend analysis, and contradiction detection
  • Smart ranking: Papers ranked by study type — meta-analyses and reviews surface first
  • Modern interface: Dashboard, personal library, citation export
  • Mobile-ready: Responsive design that works on any device

Who Built This

RAlert is part of rsminds (Research Scholar Minds), a suite of research tools built by Yogatraya AI Research LLP, a research technology company based in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India. Founded by Rajesh SK (PhD, 20+ years in yoga science, applied psychology, and contemplative neuroscience).
