AI for Research

Use AI to support research without losing rigor.

Integrate AI into research work transparently, with source discipline, institution-specific rules, documentation, verification, and a real human review gate.

Recommended starting point

AI Research Workflow Review

A 90-minute online review plus a short workflow and next-step plan. We map where AI may help, where it should not be trusted, and how every critical output will be checked.

  • An AI-use workflow map
  • Verification and disclosure checkpoints
  • A concise written next-step plan

You receive the complete format and written plan. In return, I ask for structured private feedback that helps refine the service; public feedback is optional.

90 minutes + short plan
Look inside a first session and its takeaways

Illustrative agenda, adapted by agreement to your task. This is a planning example, not a guarantee that a project is solved in one session.

  1. 15 min · goal, existing approach and data boundaries
  2. 20 min · map one workflow and a useful baseline
  3. 30 min · work through and challenge one example
  4. 15 min · repeat the check with less guidance
  5. 10 min · next three actions and an owner

Bring an anonymised or synthetic example and the rules that apply. The agreed written plan records priorities and checks; ongoing implementation or unlimited support is not included unless separately agreed.

Inspect a sample plan and checklist

This is a good fit if…

  • You want to use AI in literature work, synthesis, coding, analysis planning, or writing without losing traceability.
  • You need a clear human-review gate for every consequential output.
  • You must align the workflow with institutional rules and disclosure expectations.

What to bring

  • Your research question and current workflow.
  • Relevant institutional AI, authorship, data, or disclosure rules.
  • Examples of outputs you need to verify; do not send sensitive data through the form.

What you leave with

  • A map of where AI may and may not support the research process.
  • Source, verification, documentation, and disclosure checkpoints.
  • A final human-review protocol you can explain and repeat.

Interactive process

AI can support research only when rigor remains visible.

A research workflow moves from question and real sources through synthesis and analysis planning to a mandatory human review gate.

Research question

We define the question and its boundaries before assigning tasks to AI. The question determines which evidence and methods count.

A traceable literature overview

Set the scope

Record the question, search terms, inclusion criteria, and the limits of the overview.

What this producesA scoped research aim
Read all stages and examples
  1. Research question

    We define the question and its boundaries before assigning tasks to AI. The question determines which evidence and methods count.

    Illustrative example: Record the question, search terms, inclusion criteria, and the limits of the overview.

    Result: A scoped research aim

  2. Source triage

    Search and triage focus on real, verifiable sources; model output is not a source. Traceability and source-quality decisions begin here.

    Illustrative example: Capture real titles, links or identifiers, study designs, and reasons for inclusion.

    Result: A relevant, verifiable source base

  3. Evidence synthesis

    We compare evidence, methods, and disagreements while keeping every claim tied to real sources. AI may organise ideas, but it cannot confer authority.

    Illustrative example: For each claim, record the source, method, finding, and limitation. Keep disagreements visible.

    Result: A traceable evidence map

  4. Analysis plan

    Design, assumptions, checks, and decision points are specified before analysis or coding. This makes AI assistance testable, explainable, and easier to debug.

    Illustrative example: Decide how extraction will be checked and how uncertain or conflicting results will be handled.

    Result: A defensible analysis plan

  5. Writing support

    AI is used selectively for structure, clarity, or iteration while human authorship remains intact. Its use is documented and disclosed according to institutional rules.

    Illustrative example: Use AI only within the agreed rules. Keep source links and document how assistance was used.

    Result: A transparent writing workflow

  6. Human review gate

    Every critical claim, source, calculation, code result, and disclosure passes a genuine human check. This is a mandatory gate, not a decorative ending.

    Illustrative example: Open the original papers. Check claims and references. Resolve unsupported statements before use.

    Result: A reviewed, documented result

What we work on

Assistance is not authority.

Models can support brainstorming, source triage, synthesis, note organization, coding, debugging, analysis planning, and writing. They are not authoritative sources and they do not remove the need to inspect evidence.

Literature and synthesis

Plan searches, triage materials, organize notes, compare arguments, and keep every claim traceable to real sources.

Coding and analysis

Use AI for planning or debugging while documenting choices, testing output, and understanding assumptions and failure modes.

Writing and disclosure

Create transparent support routines that respect university policies, citation rules, disclosure requirements, and human authorship.

AI Act or organizational compliance questions receive general orientation only. Legal questions belong with qualified legal or compliance professionals.

Academic integrity

I help you strengthen your own work.

Support is educational, methodological and editorial. It does not replace your authorship, judgment, or assessed performance.

  • No ghostwriting or assessed work submitted as someone else's
  • No fabricated, falsified, or manipulated data or results
  • No take-home examinations or assessed assignments completed for the client
  • No bypassing plagiarism checks, AI detectors, or institutional rules
  • No undisclosed authorship or deceptive AI use
  • No guaranteed grades, publication, acceptance, or research outcomes

Questions before you decide

Clear answers, before the intake.

01Can AI be used as a scholarly source?

No. Models can help organize or question material, but claims must be checked against real, appropriate sources.

02Can you help with code or analysis?

Yes, as a transparent support workflow: document choices, test outputs, understand assumptions, and retain human responsibility for interpretation.

03Will this make my work compliant with every university rule?

No universal guarantee is possible. We work from the rules that apply to your institution, project, data, and discipline.

04Is this legal or AI Act advice?

No. Practical workflow implications can be discussed, but legal and formal compliance decisions belong with qualified specialists.
