## What is AI Research Assistant?

AI Research Assistant is a free AI tool from Farvixo that helps you get synthesized answers to research questions. Your prompt is sent to a language model, which streams the answer back as it is written. No API key and no account are required, and responses arrive as they are generated rather than all at once.

## How to use AI Research Assistant

1. **Describe what you need** — Type your prompt or paste your text into AI Research Assistant. Be specific — the more context you give, the better the result.
2. **Let the AI work** — AI Research Assistant streams the response back as it is generated, so you can start reading immediately instead of waiting for the whole answer.
3. **Refine or export** — Ask follow-up questions to narrow the result, then copy it or download it. No API key and no account are required.

## Use cases

- Drafting a first version quickly when the blank page is the hard part
- Summarising a long document down to the points that matter
- Rewriting text for a different audience, tone or reading level
- Students, marketers and developers who want an AI assistant without paying for a subscription

## Tips

- Say who the output is for and how long it should be. Specific constraints produce far better results than an open request.
- Treat the first answer as a draft and refine it with follow-ups rather than re-typing the whole prompt.
- Always check facts, figures and citations yourself — a language model can state something wrong with complete confidence.

## Common problems

- **The answer stopped part-way through** — The response hit its length limit. Ask it to continue, or split the request into smaller parts.
- **The result is generic or off-target** — The prompt left too much open. Add the audience, the format, the length and an example of what good looks like.
- **The tool declined the request** — The prompt crossed a safety boundary of the underlying model. Rephrase it, stating the legitimate context and purpose.

## FAQ

### Can I cite this in academic work?

No. Language models generate plausible-sounding citations that do not exist — a well-documented and genuinely damaging failure. Use this to understand a topic and find search terms, then locate and cite the real sources yourself.

### How reliable are the answers?

Good for established, widely documented topics; unreliable for recent events, specific figures, and anything contested. The model states everything with equal confidence regardless of how sure it should be, which is the real hazard.

### How do I use it well?

Ask it to explain a concept, map out what a field considers important, or suggest what to search for. Those play to what it does well. Asking it for specific facts, dates or statistics is where it fails most convincingly.

### Is my question private?

It is sent to a language model to be answered. Unlike the local tools here, it does leave your device.

### Can I ask follow-up questions?

Yes, and you should. Narrowing with follow-ups produces far better results than one long question, and it lets you probe where the first answer sounded vague.
