What can CATO do for me?

Think of CATO as a colleague you hand your data to. Ask a question in plain language and it profiles your dataset, runs the right statistical tests, builds publication-quality figures, drafts cited literature summaries, and writes up results as Word, PowerPoint, or Excel files, usually in minutes. It fits into your existing workflow: upload the files you already have, keep the outputs you already use, and open the Python or R code behind any result whenever you want to check the work.

Can CATO run literature reviews and systematic reviews?

Yes. CATO is an AI literature review tool that searches PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, bioRxiv and medRxiv, arXiv, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, and patents, extracts PICO evidence, and produces fully cited systematic reviews you can export to Word. Available on Pro and above.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. CATO is a no-code data analysis tool: you work in plain language and a no-code figure editor. Every result still exposes its underlying Python or R code, so you, or a reviewer, can verify everything.

Can CATO replace SPSS or GraphPad Prism?

Yes. CATO covers what SPSS, GraphPad Prism, SAS, and Stata do, and goes further: it writes and runs real Python and R, so you get modern statistical methods, the full bioinformatics ecosystem, and publication-ready figures from a single conversation. It imports their native file formats directly, and unlike point-and-click statistics software, it shows the code and assumptions behind every result.

What kinds of data can I analyze?

CATO reads 50+ formats across tabular, genomics, single-cell, molecular, imaging, proteomics, and document data, making it a general biomedical data analysis platform rather than a single-assay tool.

CATO is built for researchers, physicians, biotech and pharma R&D teams, clinical trials, academic labs, core facilities, and bioinformatics groups: anyone who needs research-grade analysis without building a software pipeline first.

How much does CATO cost?

Standard is $20 per month, Pro is $100 per month, and Pay-as-you-go is metered with no monthly fee. Institutional and lab-wide agreements are available.

Literature watches: standing alerts for new papers in your field

Keeping up with the literature is a recurring tax on every researcher. Saved-search alerts turn it from a weekly chore into a notification. CATO is an AI data analysis and literature review tool for biomedical researchers, built by NYRUS AI.

How watches work

Save any literature search as a watch, and CATO monitors its sources, PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, bioRxiv and medRxiv, arXiv, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, and patents, for new matching work.

Plan limits

Standard includes 10 literature watches, Pro includes 50, and Pay-as-you-go has no cap. New findings flow into the same workspace where you analyze data and draft cited documents.
