Medical literature for your practice.
An AI appraisal, with its limits stated.

New peer-reviewed literature in your specialty, appraised and sent once a week. Appraisals use the abstract and, when a licence permits it, selected full-text sections. Each digest identifies single-model summaries. AI-generated; not clinician-reviewed.

Delivery is limited to invited email addresses during the beta. Contact hello@mdigest.app to ask about joining.

What happens to a paper

From PubMed to your inbox

We collect literature, check its provenance, and rank appraised articles against your interests.

  1. 01

    Ingest ingestArticles

    PubMed and MEDLINE, deduplicated on DOI and PMID.

  2. 02

    Authenticity checkAuthenticity

    Crossref update-to metadata and retraction records. A retracted paper stops here permanently.

  3. 03

    Provenance extractFundingAndInstitution

    Funder and lead institutions from indexed metadata only. No record means we print "not disclosed in indexed metadata" rather than a guess.

  4. 04

    AI appraisal

    A model extracts the population, intervention, comparison, outcomes, strengths and weaknesses, and proposes an evidence tier. Single-model summaries are marked in the email.

  5. 05

    Personalized selection

    Your fields, journals, topics and interests help rank the appraised literature within your chosen article limit.

What this is and isn't

The constraints are the point

Never paywalled full text

Abstracts, indexed metadata and full-text sections only where the licence permits storage. Every entry links to the paper at its source.

No pharmaceutical funding

Not now, not later. Funding source and lead institutions are printed on every entry so you can weigh them yourself.

No subscriber fees

Free permanently. There is no paid tier to upgrade to and no plan to add one.

Not clinician-reviewed

These summaries are machine-generated. The disclaimer below appears on every single email we send.

On every digest AI-generated; not clinician-reviewed. For educational use only; not a substitute for clinical judgment.

Get started

Tell us your specialty. That's the whole setup.

Pick your specialty, training status, and practice setting. We match new literature against that profile each week. Psychiatry is live first; other specialties open as coverage is verified.
