What it does

OpenScience provides an AI-powered workbench for scientific research, enabling founders to streamline their research workflows and collaborate with others.

When to use it

•When conducting research that requires significant data analysis and processing
•When needing to collaborate with other researchers and track changes to research projects
•When looking for an open-source solution for research workflow management

Ready-to-paste prompt

Use the command `npm run start` to start the OpenScience workbench and access the dashboard for creating and managing research projects

Heads up: Before running the workbench, ensure you have Node.js (version 14 or higher) and npm installed on your system, as OpenScience relies on these dependencies to function properly
