It’s Only Common Sense: Creativity Is Noisy, Messy, and So Worth It
Dan’s Biz Bookshelf: ‘The Soul of a New Machine’
Wiley, a global leader in authoritative content and research intelligence, announced the launch of Wiley AI Gateway, the industry's first AI-native research intelligence platform that provides researchers access to trusted content from world-leading scholarly publishers through a single endpoint.
Unlike closed ecosystems that require researchers to adopt proprietary tools, Wiley AI Gateway prioritizes intentional interoperability, seamlessly integrating scholarly content and data subscriptions with today’s leading AI platforms. Anthropic's Claude, AWS marketplace, Mistral AI's Le Chat and Perplexity all connect to the AI Gateway.
"Wiley AI Gateway transforms how researchers harness AI for scientific discovery by integrating trusted, peer-reviewed content directly into their daily AI workflows," said Jay Flynn, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Research & Learning at Wiley. "As AI adoption among researchers surged from 57% to 84% in just one year, we recognized the need to meet them where they work, creating infrastructure that ensures AI-powered research is grounded in validated scholarly sources while positioning quality content as the cornerstone of reliable scientific discovery."
Unlocking Value Across the Research Ecosystem
The AI Gateway employs advanced content transformation technology to convert scholarly and expert content into AI-optimized formats while preserving citation integrity, methodological context, and peer-review validation. This sophisticated enrichment process, combined with an endpoint built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), ensures that AI tools can effectively understand, synthesize, and cite research content with the accuracy and reliability that scientific discovery requires. The platform, currently available to beta customers, delivers key benefits to:
- Universities and Research Labs: Provides access to comprehensive, cross-publisher literature synthesis through familiar AI interfaces, with responses anchored to peer-reviewed sources.
- Corporate R&D Teams: Accelerates innovation cycles by leveraging AI-powered research discovery that spans multiple disciplines and publishers, ensuring breakthrough insights are grounded in validated scientific methodology.
- AI Development Partners: Builds more reliable, knowledge-grounded AI applications using enriched content feeds that eliminate hallucinations and bias through systematic integration of peer-reviewed research.
Wiley AI Gateway enables any publisher to connect to leading AI platforms while protecting and controlling the use of their content and maintaining their independence. Publishers including Sage and American Society for Microbiology (ASM) – two of Wiley's Atypon customers – will be joining the network with additional world-class publishers also participating to create an industry-wide solution for trustworthy AI-powered research.
"The AI Gateway expands Claude's research capabilities by connecting it directly to peer-reviewed content," said Lauren Collett, who leads Higher Education partnerships at Anthropic. "Researchers can now seamlessly combine trusted scientific literature with Claude's analytical capabilities—from statistical analysis to code generation—unlocking entirely new research workflows while maintaining the rigorous standards that scientific discovery demands."
Building upon Wiley's AI collaborations throughout 2025, the AI Gateway is already supporting key initiatives: The European Space Agency’s Φ-lab is using it to bring scholarly content into the Earth Virtual Expert (EVE), and Wiley collaborated with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to launch a generative AI agent for scientific literature search on AWS, the first of its kind from a publisher on AWS.
“Researchers have access to more data than ever before, but finding it remains a challenge,” said Dan Sheeran, General Manager, Healthcare and Life Sciences, AWS. “Data is the foundation for AI innovation and AWS continues to invest in arming researchers with the latest AI tools to accelerate scientific discoveries by making it easier to discover and act on the right data at the right time. By making Wiley’s AI Gateway readily accessible to our life sciences customers through the AWS Marketplace, researchers can spend less time on procuring data and more time on what matters most – fueling innovations.”
