Quick start

Start with a question

Create an account and open your research workspace. Your vault lives online, ready when you return.

Start with an included AI allowance. You can also connect your own API key.

Try SciSpark

Your data and your models

Run SciSpark locally with a Markdown vault you control.

Requires Node.js 20.9+ and npm.

Terminal
git clone https://github.com/SciSpark-ai/scispark_wiki.git
cd scispark_wiki
npm install
npm run dev

Then open 127.0.0.1:3000

For AI, connect an API provider or a signed-in Codex or Claude Code CLI.

FAQ

What is SciSpark?

SciSpark is an AI workspace for academic research across disciplines. Discover scholarly papers, read with context, and build connected knowledge. It brings your paper feed, personal wiki, knowledge graph, and research ideas into one place, with Sparky as your research companion.

How is the hosted version different from local?

The hosted beta runs in your browser and keeps your vault online. Local installation stores your Markdown vault on your computer. Both approaches may send requests to scholarly services and your chosen AI provider. Automatic sync between hosted and local vaults is not currently part of this offer.

Do I need my own AI API key?

The hosted beta includes a starter AI allowance, and you can choose to connect your own API key. Local installation needs an API provider or a signed-in Codex or Claude Code CLI for AI features. Provider charges depend on the option you use.

How does personalized discovery work?

SciSpark uses your research interests and profile to find academic papers from scholarly sources such as arXiv, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, and PubMed. In the preview above, choose one of three topics to see how discovery connects to reading, notes, and ideas. The preview is not a live recommendation feed.

Is there a mobile app?

A native mobile app is planned, so your research can be closer at hand. For now, you can open the hosted beta in your browser.

Discover. Connect. Explore.
