Manuscript Generation

Write your manuscript faster

From extracted data to publication-ready draft. mapped's Advanced Reasoning Engine generates 13-section structured manuscripts with the PRISMA 2020 checklist auto-populated, journal-specific formatting for seven major presets, and Vancouver / AMA / APA citations — all editable in Google Docs.

Updated April 2026

mapped's Manuscript Generation produces publication-ready systematic-review drafts. The Advanced Reasoning Engine generates 13 structured sections — Title, Abstract, Research-in-Context, Plain-Language Summary, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Author Contributions, Declarations, References, and PRISMA 2020 Checklist. Seven journal presets ship with the right structure and word limits: JAMA, The Lancet, NEJM, BMJ, Annals of Internal Medicine, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions. Citations support Vancouver, AMA, and APA. Drafts export to Word, PDF, LaTeX, or Google Docs for collaborative editing.

Twelve randomized controlled trials met inclusion criteria (n = 11,048 patients undergoing PCI with drug-eluting stent implantation). Pooled analysis demonstrated a significant reduction in MACE composite at 12 months with IVUS-guided PCI compared with angiography-guided PCI (RR 0.68; 95% CI 0.52–0.89; p = 0.004; I² = 71.2%). Target vessel revascularization was similarly reduced (RR 0.66; 95% CI 0.50–0.87; p = 0.003; n=10,936)

Key Capabilities

13-Section Structured Drafting

Title, Abstract, Research-in-Context, Plain-Language Summary, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Author Contributions, Declarations, References, and the PRISMA 2020 Checklist. The Advanced Reasoning Engine drafts each section from your project data — you keep the discussion and interpretation; AI handles the data-faithful sections.

PRISMA 2020 Checklist Auto-Generated

All 27 PRISMA 2020 items populate automatically from your project: search strategy, eligibility criteria, flow numbers, RoB results, summary of findings. The completed checklist exports as a supplementary file ready for journal submission. No manual transcription, no missed items.

Seven Journal Presets

Pre-configured templates for JAMA, The Lancet, New England Journal of Medicine, BMJ, Annals of Internal Medicine, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions. Each preset enforces the right structure, abstract format, word limits, figure specifications, and citation style — switch presets and the draft reflows automatically.

Citation Management

Vancouver (numbered), AMA, and APA styles supported out of the box. Citations are inserted from your literature-search records, deduplicated against the bibliography, and formatted to journal preset. Switching styles re-formats the entire manuscript without manual re-entry.

Figure and Table Integration

Forest plots, funnel plots, GRADE Summary of Findings tables, RoB traffic-light visualizations, and the PRISMA flow diagram insert at the right section automatically with correct numbering and cross-references. Update a figure upstream and it updates in the manuscript.

Google Docs Collaborative Editing

Export to Google Docs in one click for collaborative team writing. mapped's draft becomes a live Google Doc with the team's existing comment, suggestion, and version-history workflows — no learning curve, no separate tooling, no formatting drift on import.

Frequently asked questions

What is mapped's Manuscript Generation?
An AI-assisted writing module that turns your completed mapped project into a publication-ready 13-section systematic-review manuscript. It auto-fills the PRISMA 2020 checklist, embeds your forest plots and SoF tables, applies a journal preset, and exports to Word, PDF, LaTeX, or Google Docs.
Which journals does mapped have presets for?
Seven major journals: JAMA, The Lancet, New England Journal of Medicine, BMJ, Annals of Internal Medicine, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions. Each preset enforces structure, word limits, abstract format, and citation style. Custom presets are available on Custom Enterprise plans.
Will the AI write my entire manuscript?
No — and that's intentional. The Advanced Reasoning Engine drafts the data-faithful sections (Methods, Results, PRISMA tables, parts of the Abstract) where accuracy matters more than interpretation. You write the Discussion and Conclusion. Every AI-drafted sentence is editable; nothing is locked.
Does mapped support Vancouver, AMA, and APA citations?
Yes — all three out of the box, plus journal-specific variants per preset. Citations pull from your literature-search records, deduplicate against the bibliography, and re-format the entire manuscript when you switch styles. No manual citation insertion or re-numbering.
Can I edit the draft in Google Docs?
Yes. One-click export to Google Docs preserves all formatting, citations, figures, and tables. Your team uses the comment, suggestion-mode, and version-history workflows you already know — and changes can sync back to mapped if needed. Familiar interface, no migration friction.
How much does Manuscript Generation cost?
Included in every Mapped Project (list $119/project, currently $79 launch pricing) — full 13-section drafts, all 7 journal presets, citation management, and exports. Custom Enterprise plans add custom journal presets and unlimited projects. See mappedresearch.com/pricing.
