Ask BIONEXT is an AI-powered research assistant designed to help users explore the knowledge, evidence and resources generated by the BIONEXT project.
Rather than searching through individual reports, policy briefs and webpages, you can ask questions in natural language and receive concise, evidence-based responses drawn directly from approved BIONEXT sources.
The application has been developed to help researchers, policymakers, practitioners and other stakeholders quickly identify relevant information and understand how different pieces of evidence connect with one another.

- Search BIONEXT webpages, reports, deliverables, policy briefs and other resources.
- Analyse and synthesise information from multiple sources.
- Provide clear, concise answers to complex questions.
- Link responses directly to the sources used to generate them.
- Support exploration of themes such as transformative change, biodiversity policy, decision-making and nature-based solutions.
- Help users discover resources that they might otherwise overlook.

A transparent and trustworthy approach to AI
Ask BIONEXT has been designed around the principles of transparency, traceability and responsible use of artificial intelligence.
Unlike general-purpose AI systems, the application does not search the entire internet. Instead, it draws information only from a carefully selected collection of trusted sources, including BIONEXT content hosted on Oppla and a small number of approved external resources.
This approach helps to improve the relevance and reliability of responses while reducing the risk of inaccurate or misleading outputs. Each answer includes links to the sources used so that users can verify the information for themselves.
How to use Ask BIONEXT
Simply type a question into the search box using everyday language and ‘Ask BIONEXT’.
For example:
- What is transformative change?
- How can decision analysis support biodiversity policy?
- What barriers prevent transformative change?
- How can nature-based solutions contribute to biodiversity, climate and human well-being objectives?
