description BGPT Paper Search

BGPT Paper Search

BioGPT-powered scientific paper search returning 25+ structured fields per paper including extracted methods, results, sample sizes, and quality scores. Superior to basic PubMed search for structured data extraction.

Setup

Configure as a remote MCP server. BGPT provides a hosted MCP endpoint.

// MCP server configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bgpt": {
      "url": "https://mcp.bgpt.ai/v1",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_BGPT_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Pricing:

  • Free tier: 50 searches/network (shared quota)
  • Paid: $0.01/result with API key
  • Get key at: https://bgpt.ai

Available Tools

Once connected as MCP server, BGPT exposes:

Tool Description
search_papers Full-text search with structured extraction
get_paper Retrieve single paper by DOI/PMID
search_by_entity Find papers mentioning specific genes/proteins/drugs
get_citations Forward/backward citation graph
summarize_evidence Synthesize findings across papers

25+ Fields Returned Per Paper
