Refine is building the referee your research deserves. We've cracked the problem that general-purpose AI can't solve: spotting mathematical errors, empirical specification mistakes, and logical gaps in academic papers at scale. Researchers at 1,000+ institutions—including central banks and financial institutions—trust us to catch what single-pass tools miss.
Note: Nacho from our engineering team will be part of the evaluation process.
Curious about how we actually catch mathematical errors? Apply and we'll show you.
Refine (refine.ink) is an AI-powered peer review agent that reads academic research papers like a professional referee and delivers reviewer-grade feedback in 20–40 minutes.
