About NotedSource
NotedSource is an AI-enhanced R&D platform that connects enterprise research and innovation teams with the right information, the right experts, and the tools to move from question to outcome without the usual friction. From a quick 30-minute expert call to a multi-phase collaboration with a university lab, NotedSource handles search, vetting, contracts, IP, and payments in one system.
The Bottleneck
Enterprise R&D teams spend weeks finding the right external expertise for new initiatives. The process is fragmented: search on one platform, vet on another, negotiate contracts offline, manage payments manually. Most teams default to the same small network of partners because expanding that network is too slow and too risky. The result is missed breakthroughs, slower innovation cycles, and R&D budgets that underperform.

Why I Partnered with NotedSource
"Every enterprise R&D team I talk to has the same problem: they know the answer exists somewhere outside their walls, but finding the right expert, navigating the contracts, and protecting the IP takes longer than the research itself.
NotedSource eliminates that friction. Their Research Compass AI pulls cited, research-backed insights from 220M+ publications, and their Expertise Finder connects teams with vetted partners in days, not months. Contracts, IP, and payments are handled in one system.
When a platform compresses the entire external innovation lifecycle from months to days and does it at 60-85% lower cost, it belongs in the HauerX Holdings ecosystem."
