SciSpace runs in your browser, so there is nothing to install.
Log in and the web app opens on the home screen.
Zo ziet het dashboard eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Je zou het hoofddashboard moeten zien met een overzicht van alle tools.
Stap 3: Voltooi de eerste installatie
Pick your role — student, researcher, or professional — and your field.
Then create folders in your Library to keep research materials organized from day one.
✅ Klaar: Je bent klaar om een van de onderstaande functies te gebruiken.
Hoe SciSpace Chat te gebruiken met PDF-bestanden
Chatten met PDF lets you ask questions in plain English and get answers pulled straight from the paper.

Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Step 1: Upload Your Paper
Open Chat with PDF from the home screen and upload your file.
You can upload multiple PDFs for side-by-side analysis.

Step 3: Highlight and Annotate
The built-in PDF viewer includes annotation features for highlighting and taking notes.
Add a comment to any passage you want to revisit later.
✅ Resultaat: You understand dense academic papers in minutes instead of hours.
💡 Pro-tip: AI can sometimes hallucinate, so double check important answers against the original PDF.
Hoe gebruik je de literatuurbeoordelingsfunctie van SciSpace?

Veelgemaakte fouten bij SciSpace die je moet vermijden
Mistake #1: Trusting every AI answer
❌ Fout: Copying answers straight into your paper without checking the source.
✅ Rechts: Cross-check every claim against the original PDF before it goes into your draft.
Mistake #2: Searching with two-word keywords
❌ Fout: Typing short keyword strings like a normal search engine.
✅ Rechts: Ask full questions — semantic search reads intent, so complete questions return more relevant research.
Mistake #3: Ignoring your renewal date
❌ Fout: Assuming SciSpace will warn you before charging a renewal.
✅ Rechts: Some users report renewal charges without prior notification, so set your own reminder and cancel vroeg indien nodig.
Probleemoplossing voor SciSpace
Problem: Uploads fail or hang
Oorzaak: Large scanned PDFs without a text layer take longer to process.
Repareren: Compress the file or run OCR first, then upload again.
Problem: Answers feel generic or off-topic
Oorzaak: Vague prompts give the AI too little to work with.
Repareren: Name the exact section, variable, or claim you care about, then narrow from there.
Problem: Unexpected subscription charges
Oorzaak: Plans renew automatically, and users have reported negative experiences with slow customer service.
Repareren: Cancel from account settings before the renewal date, and keep your invoice when writing to support.
📌 Opmerking: If none of these fix your issue, contact SciSpace support.
