Scholarcy Nonprofit Discount & Pricing

Scholarcy is an AI-powered article summarizer that converts research papers, reports, and book chapters into structured, digestible summary flashcards—extracting key findings, methodology, contributions, limitations, and references in seconds. Designed for researchers, students, and professionals who need to rapidly process large volumes of academic literature, Scholarcy reduces literature review time by up to 70% by automatically identifying and organizing the most important information from any document.

Scholarcy's core capabilities center on intelligent document analysis and knowledge extraction. The AI reads uploaded PDFs or web-based articles and generates structured summary cards that break down each paper into its key components: background context, research question, methodology, main findings, study limitations, and cited references. The browser extension works on publisher websites, preprint servers, and institutional repositories so users can generate summaries while browsing without downloading files first. The Scholarcy Library stores all generated flashcards in a searchable personal knowledge base, allowing users to annotate, tag, and organize summaries across projects. Reference extraction automatically identifies and links cited papers, building a citation network that helps users discover related research. Export options include Word, Excel, RIS, and BibTeX formats for easy integration with reference managers like Zotero, Mendeley, and EndNote.

For nonprofits, Scholarcy addresses the challenge of staying current with research literature when staff time and specialized expertise are limited. Grant writers can rapidly review dozens of studies to find evidence supporting their proposals—extracting methodology descriptions and key findings without reading each paper in full. Program managers can scan the latest impact evaluation research in their field (education, health, environment, social services) and quickly identify which studies are most relevant to their programs. Policy advocates can process large volumes of peer-reviewed research on social issues and extract the specific data points needed for advocacy materials. Executive directors can review academic papers about nonprofit management best practices, fundraising effectiveness, and organizational strategy without spending hours decoding each study. Evaluation teams can conduct systematic literature reviews more efficiently by using Scholarcy to screen and categorize studies before deep reading. The browser extension makes it easy to summarize papers found through Google Scholar or institutional databases without interrupting the research workflow.
