Research & development is hard. Don't do it alone.
Roundtable Hub is a free AI platform that helps you find relevant research, technologies, and labs — so you can reach out and make the first connection.
Researchers, engineers, and labs use Roundtable to stay current, cut through the noise, and start collaborations without the busywork.
External R&D, without the busywork
Collaborative R&D has traditionally been hard to start and harder to coordinate. Roundtable makes it easier to find the right work and people so more researchers and groups can work together seamlessly.
A free AI platform for the R&D ecosystem
Roundtable helps you discover emerging research and technologies, stay on top of what matters, and inquire when you're ready.
Free AI search and alerts across literature, grants, and lab capabilities. Personalized to your interests.
Connecting the R&D ecosystem around your projects
Finding the right research and collaborators is hard when the ecosystem is fragmented. Roundtable helps you cut through that — then you decide when to reach out. Here's how it works:
1. We combine public and proprietary data
30M+ open access scientific literature, 30K+ licensable technologies, along with data about research labs and grants.
2. Our AI learns your interests
Our system tailors recommendations to your unique needs, learning from your feedback and project history.
3. We help you prioritize what matters
We score and personalize results against your criteria so you can focus on the most promising opportunities — then inquire when you want to reach out.
4. New opportunities surface as they arise
Stay aware of new collaborators, project opportunities, and relevant research as they show up in your searches and alerts.
Why external R&D
The best innovations are rarely developed alone, but collaboration should expand your capacity, not your workload. We help with the coordination so you can focus on the technology and take advantage of the benefits:
Knowledge Transfer
Gain deep expertise and unique insights from leading researchers outside your organization.
Access to Equipment
Use state-of-the-art lab facilities without the high costs of building in-house.
Recruiting
Build connections with talented students and researchers familiar with your work.
Scalable R&D
Speed up next generation projects with adding headcount by leveraging researchers singularly focused on the problem.
Intellectual Property
Gain exclusive or shared rights to innovations developed through the project, depending on the agreement.
Marketing
Enhance your reputation through partnership or co-publication with leading research institutions.
