How StrataFeed Fits a Research Workflow

1) Discover

  • Surface new papers relevant to your interests
  • Explore topics, authors, and trends over time

2) Triage

  • Make fast decisions: save, dismiss, or revisit
  • Build a short reading queue instead of an endless backlog

Key Ideas

Keep up with new papers: StrataFeed is built for regular scanning—quickly see what is new without getting buried.

Explore topics: Use discovery as a research method: map an area, find key authors, and follow emerging subfields.

Powered by OpenAlex: StrataFeed uses the OpenAlex open scholarly catalog as its metadata backbone.

Calm by default: Minimal interface and fast triage so you spend time reading only what matters.
