TSP is a dynamic online platform for research, community and collaboration that goes way beyond traditional research networks and AI searches by efficiently creating an ecosystem surrounding the user’s chosen area of research interest.

​

Research:             Researchers and innovators can quickly build a specialized support network—people, funding, publications, and more—that we call a "vertical."  This process automates time-consuming tasks of the early stages of a PhD or typical innovation process, decreasing workload and saving months of effort.

​

Community:        This ecosystem naturally brings together like-minded experts, creating a hub for sharing ideas and insights.

​

Collaboration:     From these interactions, members (not just the vertical editor) can form partnerships with researchers, innovators, funders, and other interested parties to advance their work.  Investors are particularly intrigued by chances to gain insights into proprietary deal flow and to meet entrepreneurial thinkers.

​

The result?           Faster progress, stronger networks, and greater opportunities.

​

Much More Than Just a Search Engine

​

Though we harness advanced AI to locate and organize critical data, TSP is far more than a search tool. We’re a platform where people come together—like a digital “water cooler”—to spark conversations, share knowledge, and collaborate. Whether you’re a researcher seeking partners or a client looking for emerging ideas, TSP’s structure fosters the personal connections that drive meaningful innovation.

​

How Content and Community Come Together

​

Within TSP, you can create or join small, curated online hubs tailored to a specific topic (that is, a "vertical").  Verticals aggregate content efficiently and help create communities.  Importantly, know that verticals:

• Are proposed and led by you (the researcher, innovator, or client), not by TSP.

• Provide a central place for sharing research, funding leads, and collaboration opportunities.

• Simplify your work by organizing key resources (people, publications, jobs, events, etc.) into a single, intuitive interface.

 

Each vertical is supported by an editor, who helps expand the community, keep content fresh, and encourage engagement. But everyone in the vertical can connect, network, and explore new ideas together.

 

Protecting Your IP (and Your Crown Jewels)

 

A defining principle of TSP is that users retain full ownership of their intellectual property. We don’t claim any rights to the data, publications, or ideas you share, and you decide how much (or how little) to post on the platform. Some users choose to share everything to encourage wide-open collaboration; others reserve their “crown jewels” until they’re ready. In either case, the choice is yours—no obligation to give away your most sensitive information. TSP manages the user's database to ensure things are simple and efficient, but the IP is yours.

​

Benefits for Researchers and Innovators

​

• Automate Early Research Stages: Launching a PhD or new project? TSP streamlines the hunt for resources, experts and funding leads.

• Stronger Networks: Gain access to an ecosystem of peers and mentors who can offer feedback and collaboration.

• Targeted Collaboration: Focus on niche topics via verticals, yet still explore interdisciplinary connections and funding possibilities.

• Full Control of IP: Keep confidential or proprietary insights private; share only what you want others to see.

​

Benefits for Clients (Investors, Universities, Philanthropies, Corporations)

​

• Discover Ideas and Deals: Tap into a continuously updated stream of cutting-edge research, technologies, and deal flow.

• Find Emerging Talent: Find that next generation person whose ingenuity, drive and work ethic are the absolute right fit for your team.

• Flexible, Direct Engagement: Access specialized communities for collaborations, investments, or sponsored opportunities—all in one place.

• Efficient Insights: Save time by utilizing TSP’s aggregated data—an all-in-one platform of relevant publications, patents, and expert profiles.

• Optional Sponsorships & Partnerships: Work with vertical editors to sponsor targeted projects, invention challenges, or research topics.

 

Why TSP Matters

 

By curating knowledge, building communities, and enabling secure collaboration, TSP helps both Knowledge Creators (researchers, innovators) and Clients (investors, philanthropic organizations, corporate R&D, universities) fast-track the process of turning great ideas into real-world impacts. Think of TSP as your always-open forum for exploring, networking, and innovating—on your own terms.
