Following up from Frankfurter Buchmesse 2026

Because it's your content. It should be your AI.

Researchers and clinicians now ask AI before they open a journal. Uthereal helps you turn your journals, books and data into AI products you own, distribute and sell. Every answer is traced back to your pages.

Has anyone challenged the 2021 finding on implant survival in smokers?

Yes. Two later studies found no clear difference for light smokers.12 Both followed patients for a shorter time than the original study of 1,240 implants.3

Illustrative example

What is changing

Your journals hold decades of peer-reviewed knowledge. Today, AI answers researchers' questions with it, without your name, without your citations and without paying you.

Readers ask AI first

More and more researchers start with an AI chat before they visit your platform. Each question answered there is a reader you don't get to meet.

Licensing pays once

Selling your archive to train someone else's model builds their product, not yours. The fee is paid once; their product earns for years.

Your authority goes missing

In a generic AI answer, peer review, versions, corrections and retractions disappear. So does your name.

Who we are

The knowledge infrastructure for publishers.

We build the technology that lets publishers own their AI. On top of it, you create, distribute and sell products you control. That future-proofs your business, and keeps your authority and ownership over your content.

An ETH Zurich spin-off.

  1. 01 · End to end

    From archive to product, with one partner.

    We structure your content and design the products with you. You take them to market under your own brand. You don't need an AI team.

  2. 02 · Own, distribute, earn

    You keep the content, the AI and the customer.

    Earn from subscriptions, institutional seats and APIs that you control, not from a one-off licence to someone else.

  3. 03 · Built to last

    A foundation that outlives today's models.

    Your knowledge is stored in a lasting structure. When AI models change, you switch the model and keep everything you built.

  4. 04 · Research, not a wrapper

    The value is in the knowledge layer.

    Our innovation sits underneath the language model: a structured, cited map of your content. That is what makes answers precise, not the chat window on top.

Does smoking change implant success rates?

Yes. Twelve studies in the archive address it. Most report lower success rates in heavy smokers, and several recommend a cessation protocol before surgery.12

What you can build

One knowledge layer. Many products.

The knowledge layer is built once from your catalogue. Each product on top gets its own audience, brand and price.

Example · What an STM publisher could build

A Research Lab on your journals

A workspace where a researcher brings a question and starts new work on top of everything you have published.

  • Maps what is known: which studies agree, which disagree, and why
  • Shows the gaps no one has studied yet
  • Gathers the methods, data and conditions needed to reproduce a finding
  • Drafts a cited evidence brief and a starting study plan

Sold to universities, hospitals and R&D teams as seats, with your journals as the trusted source inside.

Questions

What publishers ask us.

Is our content used to train AI models?

No. Your content never trains public AI models. It stays in a private deployment with zero data retention.

Who owns what we build?

You do. The knowledge library, the products built on it and the customer relationships are yours by contract.

How long until a first product is live?

Typically weeks, not quarters. It depends on the size and structure of your catalogue.
