Before / After Comparison

1
Before

Manually conducting literature search, reading, and summarizing for a complex topic requires extensive time for data collection, filtering, and content integration, making it difficult to ensure comprehensiveness and timeliness.

After

Quickly crawl and analyze vast academic resources using automated tools, intelligently generating structured literature reviews, significantly shortening research cycles and improving the breadth and accuracy of reviews.

Firecrawl Research Papers

Use this to create a sourced literature review.

Onboarding Interview

Infer the topic, source constraints, target count, and output format from context. If the topic is clear, proceed immediately.

Ask at most 1-3 concise questions only if blocked, such as the topic, target paper count, or required venue/date/method constraints.

Firecrawl Collection Plan

Search for papers, PDFs, whitepapers, technical reports, and research blogs. Scrape PDF URLs directly when available; Firecrawl can extract PDFs.

Target source types:

  • academic papers from arXiv, university sites, ACM/IEEE pages where accessible
  • industry reports and whitepapers
  • company research blogs
  • technical articles and conference summaries

Parallel Work

If appropriate, use sub-agents or equivalent parallel task runners:

  • Academic Papers researcher
  • Industry Reports researcher
  • Technical Articles researcher
  • Synthesis and citation reviewer

Final Deliverable

# Literature Review: [Topic]

## Abstract
[2-3 paragraph summary]

## Key Papers
[Title, authors, source URL, key findings, methodology, relevance]

## Themes And Consensus
[What sources agree on]

## Open Questions And Debates
[Disagreements and unresolved questions]

## Emerging Trends
[Recent developments]

## Sources
[Organized by paper/report/article]

## Rerun Inputs
workflow: firecrawl-research-papers
topic: [topic]
target_count: [number]

Quality Bar

  • Every major claim should trace to a source.
  • Note inaccessible or failed PDFs.
  • Distinguish peer-reviewed work from blogs and vendor reports.
