The claim that Ought was founded in 2017 is not explicitly stated in the source, although it does say that Andreas Stuhlmüller started Ought in 2017. The claim that Elicit supports workflows ranging from systematic literature reviews (claiming up to 80% time savings) is not supported by the source. The source mentions that researchers using Elicit halved the time and cost of data extraction and analysis in a pilot project, but it does not mention 80% time savings. The claim that Elicit supports workflows ranging from research reports, screening, and data extraction across disciplines including materials science, biotech, software development, and health technology is not explicitly stated in the source. The source mentions that Elicit is used by researchers ranging from MIT and Stanford scientists to researchers at industry leaders like Novartis, Genentech, and OpenAI, and that it is used in fields like semiconductors, energy, and materials science.
