Rhymer Research AI Tool Launched: Paper Validation to Virtual Surveys

AI agent startup Liner has launched two powerful research AI agents, 'Peer Review' and 'Survey Simulator', set to revolutionize the quality and efficiency of academic research. These innovative tools are expected to solve key challenges researchers face in experiment design and paper writing, contributing to maximizing the completeness of their research. **Paper Peer Review Agent: Compressing a Months-Long Process into Just 10 Minutes** The peer review process, which researchers must go through before submitting to academic journals, typically takes several months. Liner's 'Paper Peer Review Agent' simulates this process in just 10 minutes, enabling a significant reduction in research time. This agent comprehensively analyzes five key elements: the originality of the research, the validity of the methodology, logical consistency, potential impact, and the limitations of the study, providing concrete suggestions for improvement. Notably, comparative validation against actual paper reviews from the international academic conference ICLR showed that the agent's evaluation content matched over 70%, and it provided feedback that was on average more than twice as specific as actual reviews, proving its reliability and usefulness. **Survey Simulator: A New Path for Iterative Research Validation Through Cost and Time Savings** For survey-based researchers in social sciences, business administration, and marketing, the 'Survey Simulator' is a tool set to change the paradigm of survey research. Researchers can upload a survey PDF and conduct a virtual survey by selecting AI personas ranging from 30 to 100 individuals with diverse demographic characteristics. A real survey of 100 people takes several days and costs an average of over $150, but the Survey Simulator can obtain the same data in just 3 minutes for about $1. This allows researchers to identify problems in survey questions or weaknesses in hypotheses early on, and significantly enhance the completeness of their research by iteratively validating various design proposals. Jinwoo Kim, CEO of Liner, stated his ambition: "We are building an environment where researchers can achieve fast and accurate results by resolving major bottlenecks in the research process with research AI agents," adding, "We will contribute to the expansion of human knowledge by advancing both accurate AI search services and research agents." Liner's latest launch will support researchers in conducting more efficient and high-quality research, marking a significant turning point that will elevate the future of academic research.
