Finding a method, seeing the gap in the literature and defending a decision are separate jobs. Each step has its own product; all three are live today.
The three live products cover method selection, gap detection and decision analysis; the other nine are staged on the roadmap.
Which method family answers a question is not obvious from the start. ScholarGate opens the methods as families, links every record to its paper.
Once the method is set, the next step is what the field itself says. Lacuna reads the literature as a network, a map and evidence, then turns the gap into a research question.
Once data is collected the criteria pull against each other; no ranking falls out on its own. DecisionMind runs the methods deterministically and hands back the ranking with its reasoning.
The steps feed each other but are not chained together; if you only need the decision analysis, DecisionMind can be used on its own.
Choosing a method takes five minutes. Justifying that method to a reviewer takes five weeks.
ScholarGate opens 8,178 research methods across 236 fields, organised into families. What each method is, how it works and which paper it comes from is written down with its source. Not a calculator, a library.
Anyone can see what a literature has studied. The value is in seeing what it has not.
Lacuna reads a field through three engines at once: bibliometric network, thematic map and meta analytic evidence. It marks the gap left between clusters and turns that gap into a defensible research question.
Producing a ranking is easy. Defending why the ranking came out this way is the real work.
DecisionMind runs 555 scientifically validated multi criteria decision making methods on one platform. Every method is bound to a manifest contract; computation is deterministic and every step is written to the audit trail.

Durum: In development
What they share is not the interface, it is the way they work; all three follow the same three rules.
None of them generate free text; each one runs a defined workflow end to end.
A result carries which data and method it came from.
Input, intermediate step and output are all recorded; the same analysis on the same data gives the same result.
These rules are not marketing copy, they are the company's own working principle. The Company page describes how they are applied.
