Who it is for
Researchers, clinicians, and graduate students who need answers traceable back to published literature.
AI Connectors · Healthcare & Life Sciences
Peer-reviewed sources with DOI-linked citations
Overview
Scholar Gateway is a connector from John Wiley and Sons that routes ChatGPT answers through peer-reviewed literature. Responses come back with source metadata and DOI links, so a claim can be traced to the record it came from.
Coverage at present is drawn from Wiley journals and research databases. The listing states that material from further publishers and sources is planned.
The intended use is confirming that an answer rests on published research rather than on unattributed text, which matters for work that has to meet formal citation standards.
Researchers, clinicians, and graduate students who need answers traceable back to published literature.
Coverage is currently limited to one publisher's catalogue and its research databases, narrower than a general academic search but explicit about its scope.
Availability
Scholar Gateway is listed in both the Claude connectors directory and the ChatGPT apps directory. The two listings do not state the same publisher domain, so they are matched here by product name, with John Wiley & Sons Inc. publishing the Claude listing and John Wiley & Sons Inc. the ChatGPT one.
Only 392 of the 3,150 products in this directory are listed in both marketplaces. One MCP server can serve both surfaces; what differs is each platform's listing and review process.

Claude listing
Scholar Gateway publishes 1 tool to Claude, a deliberately narrow surface; only 0.7% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Healthcare & Life Sciences publishes 6, so this one sits 5 tools below its bucket's median, 49th of 51.
It falls in the 1-3 tools band, which holds 16.4% of the Claude directory.
Scholar Gateway publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.
Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.
https://connector.scholargateway.ai/mcp Scholar Gateway carries partner verification in the Claude directory, which 474 of 1,253 listings do (37.8%). That is a review step past self-publishing, not an Anthropic-built server.
In the publisher's words
Scholar Gateway enables Claude to generate responses grounded in peer-reviewed sources with verifiable citations and DOI links. The Scholar Gateway Connector searches current literature from Wiley journals and research databases to deliver evidence-backed answers with complete source metadata. This enables you to verify that claims are backed with sourced research — ensuring your Claude-assisted research meets professional research standards. Note: The Scholar Gateway Connector provides access to Wiley content only, additional publisher sources will be added soon. Authentication required, please reach out to Wiley at scholargateway@wiley.com.

This is an independent catalogue entry compiled by Node8 from Scholar Gateway's public marketplace listings as they stood in August 2026. Listing facts come from the marketplaces; the comparisons against the rest of the directory and any live-endpoint measurements are Node8's. Node8 is not affiliated with John Wiley & Sons Inc., and inclusion here is not an endorsement.
Node8 builds MCP servers end to end: deciding which tools are worth exposing, the authentication and permission model, the review submissions, and the onboarding that gets them used. One server serves ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot.
