BrightScope

BrightScope is an open research discovery platform that helps users search across academic literature from multiple sources through a single interface.

Live Demo: https://gitcoder12.github.io/Brightscope/

Overview

BrightScope queries multiple open academic sources and returns unified results in one place.

Instead of searching multiple databases separately, users can search once and explore research from a single interface.

Current data sources:

  • OpenAlex
  • Crossref

No API keys are required.

Core Features

  • Unified research search
  • Multi-source aggregation
  • Research paper discovery
  • Author information
  • Source attribution
  • Deduplicated results
  • Mobile-friendly interface
  • GitHub Pages deployment

Example
