Transforming the Way Research Gets Done
Litmaps is reinventing the literature review process for researchers around the world.
Built for academics, scientists, and innovators, Litmaps is an intelligent platform that helps users discover, organise and stay on top of the most relevant academic papers, faster and more intuitively than ever before.
Used by researchers across top universities, research institutions, and R&D teams, Litmaps is making scholarly research more transparent, collaborative, and efficient.
Why Litmaps Is a Great Place to Work
Mission-Driven for Researchers We're building technology that helps researchers spend less time sifting through search results and more time making meaningful discoveries. If you care about science, learning, and clarity, this is the place.
End-to-End Impact Unlike many academic tools that solve only one part of the workflow, Litmaps addresses the full literature review journey, from discovery to organisation and collaboration. You’ll be working on tools that have immediate and meaningful impact.
A Culture of Curiosity At Litmaps, we value clear thinking, thoughtful design, and constant iteration. We’re building a company where ideas matter, and where collaboration is grounded in mutual respect, curiosity, and a drive to improve how research gets done.
