Your first look-up.
Sourcipedia is built so that anyone can use it in under a minute, with nothing to install and no account to create. Open the site, type a topic, read the card, follow a source.
§ 01Open Sourcipedia
Go to sourcipedia.com. You will land on a single page: the brand, a search bar, and an article count showing how many cards are currently in the corpus.
There is no sign-in to read. The public surface — home, search, article, recent — is open to everyone.
§ 02Search for something
Type a topic into the search bar and press enter. You can write a single term ("kelvin scale"), a noun phrase ("dark matter halo"), or a plain-language question ("what is the difference between mass and weight?"). The search is semantic, so all three work.
What you see
You land at /search?q=… with a ranked list of the matching knowledge cards. Each row shows the card title, a snippet of its summary, and a relevance signal. The closest match is on top.
§ 03Read the card
Click a result to open its article page at /article/:id. The page is laid out top-to-bottom:
- Title — the canonical name of the topic.
- Summary — the distilled body, written from the sources.
- Related concepts — links into adjacent cards.
- Sources — the list of admitted citations, with outbound links.
That is the whole card. There is no comment thread, no edit history widget, and no opinion section.
§ 04Follow the sources
Every card is built from a vetted source list. Scroll to the sources panel and follow at least one link before you treat anything in the summary as fact. Sourcipedia's job is to distill; verifying against the original source is yours.
If you need a defensible, long-form treatment of the same topic — not just a card — start a run in ResearchAnything.ai with the topic as your prompt.
§ 05Browse what's new
Open /recent to see the cards most recently added to the corpus. The list is cursor-paginated; keep scrolling and it keeps loading. This is the easiest way to see what the auto-generator has been learning lately.
§ 06Permalinks & sharing
Every article URL is permanent. Cards are updated in place when the corpus learns more, so the link you share today will still resolve to the freshest version of the same topic next month.
§ 07When nothing matches
If a search returns no strong matches, the corpus does not yet have a card for what you typed. Try a slightly different phrasing first — the search is semantic, but a closer term gives the model less to guess at.
For genuinely novel topics, the auto-generator may pick the query up and produce a card on a later visit. There is no manual "submit a topic" button on the public surface; the system observes demand and responds to it.
