Afforai rebranded to Logically in mid-2025, keeping the same underlying product: a citation-first research assistant built around three separate search modes rather than one blended search box, Document Retrieval for a user's own uploaded files, a Semantic Scholar mode drawing on more than 200 million peer-reviewed papers, and a general Google Search mode for real-time web information.
That mode separation matters because it keeps source types distinct rather than mixing a user's private uploads with open web results in one undifferentiated answer, letting someone deliberately choose whether an answer should come from their own library, the peer-reviewed literature, or the open web. Answers cite GPT-4 and Claude 3.5 Sonnet outputs back to specific source passages, and the platform reports use at universities including Yale and Duke.
A free tier covers standard use, and paid plans start around $7 a month for more features. For a researcher who wants control over exactly which source pool an answer draws from, rather than one blended search across everything at once, Logically's three-mode structure addresses that directly. Note the domain change: the product now lives at logically.app rather than afforai.com.
