About Keenious
The people behind Keenious.
We started in Tromsø and now work as a small team across Europe. We build Keenious with the students, researchers, and librarians who use it.

How we got here, working alongside universities.
Keenious started at UiT The Arctic University of Norway in Tromsø with a simple goal of helping people find relevant research when standard keyword searches fell short. What began as a small prototype was shaped early on through conversations with students, researchers, and librarians across university campuses.
As we worked closely with universities over the years, we learned how critical educators and librarians were of tools that automate the research process too much, especially systems that automatically insert citations. When generative AI arrived, we consulted 52 librarians around the world and continued building iteratively with academia, expanding from finding relevant papers to also helping people understand the research they come across while keeping agency and curiosity with the reader.
