Self-learning multi-agent research automation system powered by Model Context Protocol (MCP), processing 1,000+ papers/minute with real-time citation graph visualization.
SynapseFlow is a production-ready AI research assistant that orchestrates 66 specialized agents to perform cross-domain literature reviews, citation analysis, and hypothesis generation in seconds. Built with Next.js 15, TypeScript, and the Model Context Protocol.
