Artrivi

From first citation to journal submission — your AI research co-author.

Metafic designed and built Artrivi, an AI-native workspace for researchers. It carries a paper through every stage — discovering and citing peer-reviewed sources, drafting with an AI co-author, generating figures, scoring quality, and exporting in a target journal's exact format — so the science stays in focus and the busywork disappears.

The Challenge

A paper is written across six tabs that never talk.

Literature search lives in one tool, the reference manager in another, the writing in a word processor, and the figures somewhere else entirely — and then come the hours lost reformatting everything to one journal's house style. The science is the easy part; the stitching together is what burns the time.

Artrivi pulls the whole arc — discover, ideate, write, review, export — into a single AI-native workspace built for researchers. Metafic designed and engineered it so an author can go from a blank page to a submission-ready manuscript without ever leaving the editor.

5 stages

Discover · Ideate · Write · Review · Export

Peer-reviewed

Citations grounded in real journals

APA · IEEE · Chicago

Auto-formatted to each journal's rules

AI Score

Clarity, inclusivity & impact, graded

What We Built

An AI for every step of the research paper.

Find citations with AI

Discover the right peer-reviewed papers without leaving the page — with open-source and cited-frequently signals on each result — then cite or save for later in a single click. Every reference is grounded in real journals, not invented.

An AI writing co-author

Rewrite, paraphrase, elaborate, or shift the register — more academic, more persuasive, more neutral — and turn a block of prose into a clean table on demand. The draft moves forward with you, not for you.

Turn data into figures

Generate geo charts, bubble charts and diagrams straight from a table or a paragraph of text. Preview, refine, and drop a publication-ready figure into the paper without touching a separate charting tool.

A quality score for research

The Artrivi AI Score grades clarity, inclusivity and impact — sentence flow, wordiness, tone consistency, objectivity and critical thinking — and flags semantic errors, so a paper is review-ready before it's submitted.

A chat that knows your paper

An assistant grounded in your own notes, drafts and references. It summarizes articles and experiments, explains a tricky section, suggests best-fit journals, and checks journal-formatting compliance on request.

Built for journal submission

Pick a target journal and Artrivi auto-applies its citation style, template and layout to match house rules — APA, IEEE, Chicago and beyond — with co-author collaboration and per-workspace licensing built in.

The Workflow

One pipeline, from blank page to published.

01

Discover

Surface and cite the right peer-reviewed papers with AI.

02

Ideate

Shape the argument, outline and structure of the paper.

03

Write

Draft with an AI co-author — rewrite, cite and visualize inline.

04

Review

Score clarity, inclusivity and impact before you submit.

05

Export

Auto-format for the target journal and ship it.

The Product

Calm, focused, and quietly powerful.
