Has this been done?

Paste your abstract. Fairfolio compares its meaning — not its wording — against all 38,465 projects in the archive, and reports how crowded that neighbourhood already is.

200–4,000 characters. Your abstract is not stored by us.

How this check works

We compare your abstract with every project in the archive by meaning, not by keywords. Projects about the same thing come up as close matches even when they use different words, so this finds past work a keyword search would miss.

You'll see how many projects are close to yours, how many are recent, and how many won awards. Lots of close matches means the idea has been done a lot. Few close matches but plenty a little further out means you're in a popular field, coming at it from an angle nobody has tried.

Your abstract is not stored by us, and the page that shows your result is never cached. More on searching by meaning → · What to do with the prior work you find →
