How this service works
Current RI, RIS, HRI and paper count for one research topic.
Output
A JSON object containing the current Research Intensity (RI), Research Intensity Score (RIS), High Research Intensity (HRI) flag or value, and the total number of papers associated with the given research topic (keyword or sector).
Example use cases
Benchmark research heat of a new material
“Can you pull the current research intensity scores and paper count for the keyword topic 'perovskite' from Elements Live? I want to know if it's still a high-intensity area.”
Competitive landscape scan for a sector
“What are the current RI, RIS, and HRI scores for the 'energy storage' sector on Elements Live right now?”
Monitor emerging research topic activity
“Look up the current research intensity metrics for the keyword topic ID I got from the search — it's for 'two-dimensional materials' — I want to know how active the field is today.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://www.elements-live.com/v1/subjects/:subject_type/:subject_id?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a quick, real-time snapshot of a research topic's current intensity metrics without needing historical trends. It is the right choice when you already have a subject_id (obtainable via the /v1/subjects/search endpoint) and want to assess how active or hot a research area is at this moment, rather than analyzing year-over-year trends or drilling into specific papers.
Side effects
- Invalid subject_type value (must be 'keyword' or 'sector') returns a 400 or validation error
- Unknown or unresolvable subject_id returns a 404 not found
- Missing required path parameters returns an error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting may return 429 if quota is exceeded
