ReviewBrewery is web software for systematic reviews and evidence synthesis in academic and professional research. Three AI models screen papers, with a tiebreaker for conflicts and human review of decisions. The system finds duplicate records across PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase using fuzzy matching. Researchers can define extraction schemas and use AI to extract study data from full-text PDFs with citations and human verification. Risk-of-bias instruments include Cochrane ROB 2.0, the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, and JBI checklists. Its meta-analysis workbench supports fixed- and random-effects analyses, pooling methods, subgroup and sensitivity analyses, and forest plots. ReviewBrewery generates PRISMA 2020 diagrams and checklists, with diagrams exportable as SVG or PNG. Imports include RIS, BibTeX, NBIB, and EndNote XML. Pro starts at $667.00 USD per year, billed $667/mo, and a free plan is available.
