1. Title
AI-powered scientific research platform with access to over 250 million academic sources and quantitative datasets– Romania
2. Short Summary
DATA SWEEP is a Romanian SaaS platform designed to support researchers, academics and PhD students in discovering scientific literature and accessing quantitative datasets. The platform provides synthesised search across more than 250 million scientific articles and access to over 3.1 million datasets, helping users reduce the time spent on research documentation by up to 79% and potentially double academic productivity.
The platform is already on the market, with active sales in Romanian universities, and is being developed for international expansion.
3. Full Description of the Solution
DATA SWEEP is an academic productivity platform built around two main modules:
- Scientific literature search – the platform synthesises results from more than 250 million scientific articles across multiple fields, providing summaries of the most relevant results, advanced filtering by language and citation style, including APA, MLA and Chicago, as well as export options for references and citations.
- Access to quantitative datasets – the platform provides access to more than 3.1 million datasets and includes a proprietary algorithm for combining quantitative indicators, together with a proprietary TrustScore methodology designed to support researchers in assessing the previous use and citation of quantitative indicators.
The platform is designed to reduce the time required for literature review and data discovery. According to the company’s reported results, researchers, academics and PhD students can reduce documentation time by up to 79%, with potential productivity gains reflected in the number of academic publications.
DATA SWEEP also provides training sessions and workshops, particularly for early-career researchers, supporting the adoption and effective use of the platform in academic and research environments.
The solution incorporates proprietary technology and know-how, including the quantitative indicator concatenation algorithm, TrustScore methodology and proprietary source code. The DATA SWEEP trademark registration with the Romanian State Office for Inventions and Trademarks (OSIM) was initiated in September 2025.
