Built on over a decade of literature review expertise and experience delivering more than 1,500 reviews, Costello Medical have developed Clarata, an industry-leading literature review platform. Clarata brings review management and reporting together in one transparent environment, helping teams generate trusted, reproducible evidence with greater efficiency and confidence.
We understand that literature reviews vary in scope, methodology and stakeholder expectations. Clarata supports systematic, targeted, pragmatic and scoping reviews, providing the flexibility needed to accommodate different review approaches.
Whether you’re conducting a rapid targeted review or a large-scale systematic review, Clarata adapts to your methodology, governance requirements and team structure, streamlining review delivery without disrupting established processes.
A literature review is worthless without confidence in its findings. Whether you’re informing internal research or supporting regulatory submissions, Clarata brings transparency to every stage, generating evidence you can trust.
Transparent workflows, reviewer oversight and quality- controlled data extraction strengthen methodological rigour. Data extraction is conducted in line with guidance, enabling both single-review extraction with independent verification and dual independent extraction with comparison.
Coordinating multiple reviewers and stakeholders makes alignment and transparency difficult. Clarata centralises review activities in a single platform, giving teams a shared view of progress, decisions and responsibilities throughout the review process.
Clarata’s flexible user roles, project-level oversight and documented decision-making help maintain consistency, strengthen effective collaboration and ensure stakeholders remain aligned as reviews progress.
Literature reviews rely on expert judgement, yet reviewers often spend significant time on repetitive administrative tasks. Clarata reduces the administrative burden of conducting reviews, accelerating review delivery without compromising quality.
By streamlining review processes, Clarata frees reviewers to focus their expertise on generating the value that matters most: interpreting findings, identifying evidence gaps and supporting informed decision-making.
Upload records from reference managers or database searches through CSV and RIS file imports. Searching multiple databases? Clarata handles multiple uploads and automatically flags duplicate records for review.
Clarata supports both title/abstract and full-text screening. Choose between single-reviewer and dual-reviewer modes to tailor the process to your review. An audit trail records screening decisions throughout the review process.
Clarata enables both manual and AI-supported data extraction. Specify the number and type of extraction fields, and group related fields together to keep extraction organised.
Generate clear, dynamic visualisations from extracted data within Clarata. Filter your visualisations by characteristic captured during extraction and explore.
Clarata’s project dashboards provide real-time visibility of review progress and activity. Team management is fully flexible. Add or remove users, assign roles and adjust permissions throughout the review process.
Clarata puts reviewers firmly in control. Every AI feature is optional and can be enabled or disabled, so you decide how AI fits within your review.
Clarata’s screening features accelerate decision-making without compromising rigour.
Clarata enables teams to monitor review activities, explore findings and generate insights tailored to their needs.
