If you are writing a thesis, a market report, or a literature review, your sources end up scattered across browser tabs, PDFs, and sticky notes. This research source tracker pulls all of them into one living database. Every paper, article, and link sits in a single table you can sort, tag, and search — and a built-in AI agent turns that pile of sources into a clean, formatted bibliography whenever you ask. Built in one prompt with Taskade Genesis, it replaces the spreadsheet-and-sticky-note shuffle with a working app you own.
What's Included
- Source database: A sortable table of every reference — title, author, year, URL, and your own notes — so nothing slips through the cracks.
- Connected projects: Link each source to the finding it supports and the section it belongs in, so you can trace any claim back to its evidence in one click.
- AI Agent: Ask it "which sources back up this argument?" or "draft an APA bibliography from my tagged papers" and it answers in seconds using your own data.
- Citation tags: Group sources by theme, credibility, or chapter, then filter the table view to see exactly what you need.
- Automation: When you drop a new link in, an automation auto-tags it by topic and flags duplicates before they clutter your list.
