PubMed just added another million articles this year. You're supposed to stay current on all of it. Meanwhile, you have patients to see, notes to write, and a life outside the hospital that's been waiting for you since residency.

Tools like Consensus and Elicit are transforming how clinicians stay current—what took 4 hours of literature searching now takes 30 minutes.
