Use ARN in your AI assistant

Ask your assistant about new aging research and it answers from ARN: our stories on new papers, the evidence on a drug, gene or process, clinical trials, grants and news, with links back to each source. In ChatGPT and Claude the stories and the evidence show as cards.

Sign in with ARN to follow topics from the chat and see your questions to ARN; your follows reach you in the daily email as they do on the site. Signed out, an assistant can look things up for you 30 times a day; signed in, a free account has 100 lookups a day.

Your account

Every app you connect is listed in Settings, Agents & API, where Disconnect ends its access at once. An assistant never sees your email or password. What it sends us and what we keep is in the privacy policy. For scripts and your own agents, the data API takes the same tools with a key. Something not working? Write to us.
