Features

A workflow organised around the real stages of a systematic review

SystematiCat connects project setup, evidence handling, analysis and writing without creating a separate system for each stage.

Review setup

Configure the review structure, study design, eligibility, outcomes, extraction requirements and analysis plans that guide the project.

Records

Import supported reference files, individual references and PDFs, then manage duplicates and the project record set.

Screening

Record human screening decisions and reviewer notes, with support for organised independent review workflows where configured.

Extraction setup

Define the characteristics, outcomes, study groups, timepoints, units and risk-of-bias structure required for extraction.

Extract data

Review and edit structured study data, arm measurements and reported effect estimates while retaining source information.

Risk of bias

Select the configured risk-of-bias approach and complete its assessments as part of the evidence workflow.

Analysis

Create one or more analysis plans and generate supported statistical tables, figures and data artefacts from canonical extracted data.

Smart summaries

Insert generated narrative passages into the manuscript, edit their wording and retain protected values linked to analysis results.

Manuscript

Write in a visual editor with headings, citations, tables, figures and linked analysis content presented in final-form style.

Collaboration

Manage project members and roles, and use review assignments and consensus workflows where they are configured.

Exports

Download supported workbooks, JSON data, analysis files, references and manuscript outputs for use outside the application.

Connected workflow

Move from planning to writing without re-entering the same evidence

The application keeps review stages distinct while preserving the links between structured data, analysis results and manuscript content.
