This paper describes "MetaMate, an open-access web-based tool leveraging large language models (LLMs) for automated data extraction in educational systematic reviews and meta-analyses." While some may reasonable express scepticism about the use of AI to summarize papers for metastudies, I think it will be a positive to spend more time reading the papers and less time searching for them. Anyhow, the paper evaluated the software's precision and finds it compares well with human coders in most areas, though it's weaker in subjects such as Delivery Mode (81.25%), Intervention Duration (87.5%), and Academic Subject (87.88%).
