Libris research demos

Real, fully-cited research reports produced by Charon's autonomous multi-agent research system — each investigates a contested frontier-science question against the live scholarly literature and grades every claim for confidence and evidence strength.

How each report grades its claims

confidence: high well-supported contradicts evidence against Strong evidence methodological strength verified citation resolved

Confidence (is it true?), stance (does the source support or contradict?), and evidence grade (how strong is the underlying evidence?) are independent axes. Contradicting and contested claims are surfaced, not smoothed over.

Generated by Libris. These are AI-produced research reports — a well-sourced starting point, not a substitute for the primary literature. Citations were verified for existence and title match; not every number was independently fact-checked.
