Every project has Keywords: the words a search for your study would use, such as gamification or student engagement. CurTask uses them to find matching papers in your library (no AI, 0 credits) and to suggest searches when you look for new studies in Discover.

Step 1Find the keywords on the project overview
Open the project from Home. The Keywords box is on its overview page, under the problem statement.

Step 2Add a keyword
Click in Type a keyword, press Enter, type the keyword and press Enter. To add several at once, separate them with commas. Changes save at once: Saved appears below.
To change a keyword, click it, type the new wording and press Enter (Esc cancels).

Step 3Remove a keyword
Choose the × on the keyword. It saves at once.
Keywords the AI suggested are marked ✦ with a dashed border: choose ✓ to keep one, × to remove it, or Keep all to keep them all.
Step 4Use them to find papers
In the project's Library, choose Discover papers. Under From your keywords, CurTask offers ready-made searches built from your keywords. See Find papers like the ones in your project.
