Methodology is too important
to leave to a chatbot.
RSMinds is built by a methodology expert at Yogatraya AIResearch LLP — for PhD scholars, supervisors, and postdoctoral researchers who refuse to ship work that breaks at peer review.
Built by Dr. Rajesh S.K.
Technologist, researcher, educator, and contemplative scientist with more than two decades of interdisciplinary work spanning psychology, yoga, mindfulness research, and applied AI. Based in Thiruvananthapuram, India.

Forged in silence
A severe COVID-19 infection in 2020 caused critical kidney failure. Five years of continuous dialysis followed, until a transplant in April 2025. The blueprints for ResearcherMinds and the broader Yogatraya platform were drawn during the long silence of post-transplant isolation — built by a methodology researcher who had spent two decades watching how rigor either makes or breaks a dissertation, and who suddenly had time to think about what AI should and should not do for the next generation of scholars.
“AI should deepen human intelligence, not replace it.”
— Dr. Rajesh S.K.
The problem we kept seeing
Across 100+ Master's students supervised and 6+ PhD scholars mentored, the same failure mode kept surfacing: methodology errors are invisible during the writing phase and fatal at peer review. A perfectly typeset manuscript with a wrong sample size calculation gets rejected. A beautifully argued discussion with a missing PROSPERO registration gets withdrawn. A polished intervention description that fails the TIDieR checklist cannot be replicated.
Generic AI tools — built for general writing — made this worse, not better. They produced confident-sounding prose around methodology choices they didn't understand. They had no knowledge of CONSORT, PRISMA, STROBE, TIDieR, COSMIN, or any of the 108 reporting standards a rigorous research project must respect.
The gap RSMinds fills
We built 1 live research workflow Minds, each specialized for one stage of the pipeline: research question (Quest), literature gap (Lit), study design (RCT, Quasi, Corr, Qual, Obs, Survey, Sced, Review, Outcome, Intervention), registration and ethics (Prospero, CTRI, Ethics), instruments (Scale, Surv, Kap), and reporting (Report).
Each Mind is wired to the international standards that govern its stage. The AI prompts inside Quest know FINER. The AI prompts inside RCT know CONSORT. The AI prompts inside Intervention know TIDieR. When the standard is unclear, the AI flags uncertainty instead of fabricating confidence.
India-first pricing (short-sprint plans from ₹299) is deliberate. The largest population of PhD scholars outside the US studies in India, and the cost of methodology support should not be a barrier to producing rigorous research anywhere in the world.
“Technology should capture the speed of thought without losing the depth of intent.”
— Dr. Rajesh S.K.
Our principles
Rigor over speed
Each AI suggestion in RSMinds is grounded in a specific reporting standard — CONSORT, PRISMA, TIDieR, COSMIN. We will not ship a Mind without that wiring, even if it delays a release.
Evidence over hype
Every number on this site is verifiable. We removed inflated claims during the 2026 rebuild because they could not be defended at peer-review scrutiny — the same standard we hold researchers to.
Accessible professional
Short research sprints from ₹299 (1 month) are a deliberate decision, not a positioning trick. A PhD scholar in Bengaluru and a postdoc in Berlin should access the same methodology AI on the same terms.
AI deepens, never replaces
RSMinds enforces standards and surfaces uncertainty — it does not pretend to be your statistician or your supervisor. Where AI judgment is shaky, the product flags it instead of fabricating confidence.
