Life Sciences in Firecrawl Research Index
The Life Sciences category is now available in Firecrawl Research Index. It covers 41M+ papers across the drug discovery, clinical trial, and biology literature. Your AI agents get citable papers back for a query and can pull the full text on demand. The whole index is also free to use now.
- High-recall retrieval. The index hits 90% recall@10 on our paper-retrieval eval, so your AI agents find more of what matters on the first page of results.
- Millions of life sciences papers. The corpus holds 41M+ papers from authoritative sources and refreshes daily, so your AI agents only cite domain-specific literature.
- Abstract to full text. Your AI agents search abstracts to find the right papers, then pull the full text to verify a claim against the source.
- No DIY stack. Research Index stands in for the source APIs plus the parsing and ranking you would otherwise build yourself.
- Free to use. Every category is free, including the AI and ML literature it already carried alongside the new Life Sciences papers.
- Available everywhere you build. Query it through the API at
/search/research, plus the CLI, MCP, and SDKs.
