Questions answered.
What counts as a keyword?
Any topic you want to track — a disease, molecule, method, technique, or field. 'Alzheimer's tau pathology' works better than just 'neuroscience'. Be specific.
What are instant alerts?
Pro subscribers receive an email within hours of a new paper matching their keywords — not just in the daily digest. Never be the last to know.
Is the free plan genuinely free?
Yes. No credit card required. One keyword, one delivery per week, forever.
What databases do you cover?
OpenAlex, PubMed, Europe PMC, arXiv, and Semantic Scholar — covering millions of journal articles and preprints across all academic disciplines.
What are preprints?
Papers shared publicly before peer review (arXiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv). We include them because they represent the newest findings. We always label them clearly.
Will I get the same paper twice?
Never. We track every article sent to you and exclude it from all future digests.
Can I change my keywords later?
Yes, at any time from your account settings.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel and you won't be charged again. Access continues through the end of your billing period.
Do you offer team or lab accounts?
Team accounts are coming soon — designed for labs and research groups with multiple members. Join the waitlist by emailing info@novarumscholar.com.
