Research Solutions Unveils AI Rights Add-On
Research Solutions, a notable provider of AI-driven scientific research tools, has officially launched its
AI Rights add-on for
Article Galaxy. This innovative addition is a game changer for corporate researchers seeking compliant ways to utilize generative AI tools while engaging with scientific journal content at scale. As AI becomes increasingly integrated into research workflows, ensuring compliance with copyright regulations has become a pressing challenge. With this new tool, researchers can navigate these complexities more efficiently.
Addressing Compliance Gaps
Recent findings indicate that a staggering 76% of researchers are currently employing AI tools in their work, yet many lack clear directives regarding copyright permissions for analyzing scientific materials. Research Solutions aims to fill this crucial gap with the AI Rights add-on, which enhances the Article Galaxy platform into a full-fledged solution for managing AI rights verification and acquisition.
The
AI Rights add-on ensures instant clarity on usage permissions, simplifying the entire process for researchers. By forming partnerships with major publishers, the tool facilitates confident analysis of scientific literature through prominent AI platforms like Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude, all while maintaining strict copyright compliance.
Features of the AI Rights Add-On
The innovations introduced with the AI Rights add-on are set to revolutionize how research teams approach compliance and content analysis. Here are some key features:
1. Comprehensive Rights Management:
Users can easily handle all sources of AI rights from a single interface, whether from open access licenses, agreements with Reproduction Rights Organizations, direct publisher partnerships, or acquisitions through Article Galaxy’s marketplace.
2. Instant Rights Verification:
The tool provides immediate visibility into AI usage permissions for any article, eliminating the uncertainty associated with compliance.
3. One-Click Rights Acquisition:
Researchers can purchase missing rights directly through the Article Galaxy platform, with transparent pricing from participating publishers, making the process straightforward and efficient.
4. Retroactive Rights Purchase:
Organizations have the ability to acquire AI rights for articles they have previously purchased, enabling instant compliance for their existing content collections.
5. Organization-Wide Licensing:
The rights acquired through this system apply to the entire organization, abolishing per-use restrictions and alleviating ongoing compliance concerns.
As Chris Bendall, VP of Product Strategy at Research Solutions, states, "The combination of generative AI and scientific literature creates unprecedented opportunities for accelerating discovery. However, this potential can only be realized when researchers can access content in a legal and efficient manner."

Roy W. Olivier, CEO of Research Solutions, emphasizes the importance of this launch:
"Our customers have clearly articulated their need for AI capabilities to enhance their research productivity without the risk of non-compliance. This initiative aligns with our commitment to reduce friction in the research workflow while simultaneously creating sustainable value for publishers. We are effectively addressing a compliance issue while ushering in a new era of AI-powered scientific research."
