summary: Cross-Lingual Dark Science Arbitrage Scout
description: 'Finds scientific work that exists only in non-English literature. Give an English topic, a technical bottleneck, or a paper you know (seedPaper: DOI or arXiv id); the scout plans native-terminology searches in up to 6 languages (default zh, ja, de, fr, ko) across OpenAlex, Crossref, HAL, J-STAGE and Europe PMC, drops works that already have an English twin, and returns up to 8 ranked discoveries. The result leads with a verdict (LEADS_FOUND, WEAK_LEADS, NO_LEADS, INSUFFICIENT_EVIDENCE or PARTIAL), the top pick, its confidence and a concrete next step. Each discovery carries an English title and methodology translation, pattern-extracted quote-verified numeric results, index-sourced institutions, a computed known-in-English risk (OpenAlex English citers and title similarity) and a deterministic 0-100 commercial whitespace score built from a two-sample model judgment of novelty and readiness. Review articles are flagged and ranked below primary studies. Judgments rest on titles and abstracts, not full texts. If an index or the scoring model is unavailable you still get a signed partial result that names what is missing. Not investment, legal or technical due-diligence advice: confirm with the authors before acting.
Price: 1.50 USDC on Base (x402).'
