Search PubMed exactly the way you do on the website — field tags like [tiab], [mh], [ta] and AND / OR / NOT all work — and get each article as a clean row: title, abstract, journal, publication date, DOI, PMCID, MeSH terms, keywords, publication types, author count and institutions. Filter by publication date, and schedule it with Only new articles to follow a topic week by week.

  • Literature monitoring — a weekly list of new papers on your topic, with abstracts, into a sheet or Slack
  • Systematic reviews — export every match for a query with MeSH terms and publication types for screening
  • AI and RAG — abstracts with DOIs for summaries, search and evidence tables
  • Research landscaping — which journals and institutions publish on a topic, by year

Input

{ "queries": ["glp-1[tiab] AND (obesity[mh] OR weight loss[tiab])"], "fromDate": "2025", "maxResultsPerQuery": 200, "onlyNew": true }

Measured on October 7, 2026: two queries, 54 articles with abstracts in 6 seconds. Data comes from NCBI's official E-utilities API — no login, no API key; requests are paced to NCBI's limit of three a second.

Pricing

$1.00 per 1,000 articles, plus $0.01 per run. Error rows are free. The $0.01 run-start fee is the one charge every run pays, even one that returns nothing.

For AI agents

{"queries": ["long covid[tiab]"], "maxResultsPerQuery": 20} returns the 20 newest articles with abstracts. Rows have type: article or error.
