Welcome back to another exciting tutorial! In this video, we explore the revolutionary app, Consensus, which is currently in its beta phase and is free to use.

Consensus is an incredible tool for students or anyone in need of conducting in-depth research quickly and efficiently. We take a deep dive into the app's functionalities, showing how it can be used to pull up dozens of scholarly articles and grade them based on their sources.

We specifically demonstrate how you can use the app to research the question "Does creatine help build muscle?" As you'll see, with just one click, Consensus provides links to numerous research papers, complete with grading indicating their source's reliability and the type of study conducted.

The video shows how the app can generate instant citations in either APA or MLA format, saving you precious time when working on your research papers. You can also gain access to full text documents through the app, with examples demonstrated in the video.

Following this, we walk you through the process of starting with Consensus from scratch. You'll see how to input your own research question and how the app generates a synthesized summary of multiple studies' findings.

We demonstrate the app's capability of indicating a "consensus meter" - a summary of what percentage of studies agreed, disagreed, or were uncertain about a given research question. We even show how you can filter this information for the most efficient and effective research process.

This app is not just an aggregator; it's a tool that uses artificial intelligence to facilitate your academic work or any research-related task. Whether you are a student or a professional, we guarantee this tutorial will be of immense help.
