    Understanding scientific articles can be tough, even in your own field. Trying to comprehend articles from others? Good luck. Enter, Now I Get It! I made this app for curious people. Simply upload an article and after a few minutes you'll have an interactive web page showcasing the highlights. Generated pages are stored in the cloud and can be viewed from a gallery. Now I Get It! uses the best LLMs out there, which means the app will improve as AI improves. Free for now - it's capped at 20 articles per day so I don't burn cash. A few things I (and maybe you will) find interesting: * This is…

    Hi HN! Open Paper allows you to annotate and understand your research papers with an AI copilot. I wanted a paper-reading assistant that let met actually dig into papers in-place while benefiting from AI tooling. When it comes to studying, I'm not a fan of the typical chat interfaces that obfuscate uploaded files and turn them into black box 'content'. Hence, I've implemented a split-pane view. To mitigate the risk of hallucinations, all AI responses come with grounded citations that refer back to the source material in-flow. Some feature highlights: - Actually read your papers in one place…

    Hey HN! This has been my project for a few years now. I recently brought it back to life after taking a pause to focus on my studies. My goal with this project is to separate fluff from science when shopping for supplements. I am doing this in 3 steps: 1.) I index every supplement on the market (extract each ingredient, normalize by quantity) 2.) I index every research paper on supplementation (rank every claim by effect type and effect size) 3.) I link data between supplements and research papers Earlier last year, I took pause on a project because I've ran into a few issues: Legal: Shady…

    Since August I’ve been running a scoring system that tracks and ranks every new AI-related paper published on arXiv. The goal is to detect genuine research events, things that move the field forward and filter out the usual noise and unsubstantiated uploads. Each paper gets evaluated through a scoring algorithm. The system then stores embeddings with structured fields like problem, approach, solution, and result for later retrieval. Search runs on a hybrid model: it combines semantic embeddings with metadata like title, topic, author, and extracted keywords. Queries return the most relevant…

    Hey HN, I've been trying to correct for one of the biggest difficulties with moving from SEO -> GEO, which is the lack of public data (in the same way that for SEO we had ahrefs/semrush/etc). To try and start fixing this, I've built a searchable database of 15k brands, across 500 different industries, with daily updates. Each morning, the tool goes out and queries 10k different prompts, and normalises the results to all the relevant brands. You can also see some of the most interesting tech rivalries here: https://trakkr.ai/rankings/rivalries Would love your…

    Hey HN, Automated research is the next big step in AI, with companies like OpenAI aiming to debut a fully automated researcher by 2028 (https://www.technologyreview.com/2026/03/20/1134438/openai-i...). However, there is a very real possibility that much of this corporate research will remain closed to the general public. To counter this, we spent the last month building Enlidea---a machine-to-machine ecosystem for open research. It's a decentralized research hub where autonomous agents propose hypotheses, stake bounties, execute code, and perform automated…

    Hi HN! I just launched StayUpAI, an all-in-one platform to stay ahead in the AI world. It aggregates AI news from multiple sources (articles, research papers, YouTube), then uses AI to summarize all news daily or weekly. Core features: - Unified AI news feed (with source/language/theme filters) - Daily & weekly AI summary emails - Summaries for each news item (papers, YouTube, articles) - Multilingual news (with translation) - Free to start, no personal info needed for a quick test I built this because tracking AI news is overwhelming, and I wanted a tool that does the curation…

    Hey HN! I've always found it hard to keep up with the latest AI research, so I built Arxiv Feed! https://arxiv-feed.vercel.app/ It's basically a feed of AI research papers + a one-liner explaining what problem its solving, etc. You can also click on any paper to get a TL;DR. Right now, I've only indexed a few hundred large language model papers, but will expand to indexing AI papers in other topics. Thinking of also adding a way for people to up-vote/down-vote papers. Would love to hear any thoughts/feedback! :D Thanks!

    Hi HN, Would love your thoughts on Open Paper Digest. It’s a mobile feed that let’s you “doomscroll” through summaries of popular papers that were published recently. Backstory There’s a combination of factors lead me to build this: 1. Quality of content social media apps has decreased, but I still notice that it is harder than ever for me to stay away from these apps. 2. I’ve been saying for a while now that I should start reading papers to keep up with what’s going on in AI-world. Initially, I set out to build something solely for point 2. This version was more search-focussed, and…

    Hello, I wanted to share with you all a interactive map of the economics and physics constraints of the AI buildout. It has macro drivers, industrial chokepoints, and where that shows up in markets. I've added 393 nodes and 562 edges to capture other supply / physics constraints as well. There's no sign up, and no pay wall, it's all free. Please let me know what you think!
