Our Process
Our systematic review framework leverages the literature to create living evidence. With our reviews, you can substantiate claims, evaluate sustainability, identify key opinion leaders, and drive decision-making with up-to-date evidence.
Scan + Scope
Work with a Traverse consultant to develop and refine search criteria to identify a relevant research question that aligns with your business needs. We use this to establish inclusion criteria that appropriately refine and manage your search.
Screen + Extract
Work with your consultant to co-create a list of variables to extract. Your consultant builds the framework for your database and at least two members of our team independently extract the relevant data from each source.
Compile & Assess
Our system flags disagreements and we collaboratively address conflicts using your variables of interest and the original source as our guide. Your consultant then assesses the body of research as a whole and develops actionable conclusions that are driven by the evidence.
Communicate + Innovate
We create a walk-through of your final database, recommend any other custom solutions you may need, and provide subscription options that keep you up to date and your investment working for you. Your database enables innovation driven by the evidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
We love your collaboration with academic labs! We firmly believe our reviews augment your relationship with academic labs. We conduct:
- Gap analyses to help shape long-term strategy such as developing requests for proposals
- Focused reviews that specifically align with your business needs
- Confidential reviews that do not need to be published externally or subjected to peer-review
We love working with teams who already have a solid grasp of the state of the literature! Our reviews help codify and document relevant literature in a single place, making it easier for you to:
- Make sure everyone on your team is truly on the same page
- On-board new team members to the essentials of your body of literature
- Conduct comparative analyses while reducing personal biases
- Create messaging that empowers your customers to also understand the literature
- Avoid re-reading and re-analyzing existing literature so you can focus on new developments
All Traverse Science reviews include:
- A searchable, shareable database of the evidence pertinent to your research question
- PICO criteria and search terms used in the scanning and scoping phase
- A custom walk-through from our team to teach you how to leverage the database to its full advantage
- Custom communication options, including white papers, visualization platforms, and more
- Subscription options to maintain your database and create living evidence
Yes, it is! Databases are searchable, shareable, and allow you to directly compare research in a streamlined way. Review databases allow:
- Marketing teams to use verified evidence in their campaigns, creating empowered consumers who know that the data is on their side.
- Sales teams to leverage evidence with customers to show what the body of evidence says instead of cherry-picking evidence
- Research teams to understand gaps in the evidence and routes for innovation
- Leadership teams to understand large bodies of research at-a-glance to make big decisions, quick
