Claude Desktop built this in one shot. 5min. Compares research output from any institutions, filtered by any keywords. Backed by open data from @OpenAlex_org. This used to be a product. Now it's a prompt. GUI is over.

OpenAlex is now serving ONE BILLION api calls monthly (that's as much as the Crossref api)! Plus another half-billion monthly via the Unpaywall api. A million api calls isn't cool; a BILLION api calls is cool :) youtube.com/shorts/U61phJ8W5…

New affiliation matching protocols make changes in ROR records reflected in OpenAlex sooner. It's already enriched metadata for 2.2M works! Big thanks to @ResearchOrgs and @CrossrefOrg for collaborating on this enhancement to open research metadata. ror.org/blog/2025-01-27-fast…
