The literature matrix
Let the AI fill a paper-by-attribute table where every cell keeps its quote and page.
Read the transcript
A literature review table usually means weeks of copying: one paper, one row, one cell at a time, and no record of where each number came from. In CurTask, the AI fills the matrix, and every cell keeps its evidence: the quote it came from and the page it is on. Nothing counts until you accept it.
Open your project's Analysis lens. The matrix has a row for every paper in the project. Choose Add column.
Pick a template, such as Limitations, or describe it in your own words: what the AI should look for, and what kind of answer you want. Before anything runs, CurTask shows what it will cost. Answers already in a paper's baggage are reused for zero credits.
Try three papers first, then run the rest. Each answer arrives marked Suggested. Click a cell to see the quote behind it and its page.
Choose Open in reader, and the paper opens on that page, with a dashed line from the passage to the cell. Accept it, edit it, or regenerate it. If a quote may not fully back an answer, the cell says Check this one, so you look before you accept.
Every cell, with its receipt. That is CurTask.
