About Paper Digest
Paper Digest is a set of web tools for working with scientific literature. It can produce a literature review of the most influential work on a topic, generate deep research reports, answer questions from the literature and verify research claims against evidence.
An Academic Reader answers questions about PDF articles, and an Academic Writer helps write, edit and cite text. A search console covers papers, patents, grants and people, and daily alerts track new work. The New York based service has run since 2018.
