Open Paper
A workbench for reading and understanding papers
What it does
Open Paper is an AI-powered research assistant that lets you chat with your entire paper library. Upload PDFs, ask questions, and get cited answers you can click to jump to the source. Group papers into projects and chat across all of them at once. Generate audio overviews to listen on the go, or extract data tables to compare information across papers. Includes a full-featured library with a PDF reader, highlights, annotations, and paper discovery.

heyo! Explainpaper lets you upload a research paper PDF. If you don't understand a formula or sentence, just highlight it and the tool explains it for you I built this a few weeks ago to help me read a neuroscience paper, and it works pretty well! I didn't fine-tune GPT-3, but I do take a lot of context from the paper and feed that into the prompt (not the whole paper). Ppl have uploaded AI, biology, economics, philosophy papers and even law documents. Works in Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, French and more as well!

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
