AI document conversion for math, chemistry, tables and full PDFs
Recognises printed and handwritten math, chemistry diagrams, tables and text across many languages and returns editable output such as LaTeX, Markdown, MathML, SMILES or ChemDraw.
Screenshot any region of your screen or a web page and copy the converted math, chemistry or text straight to your clipboard with a keyboard shortcut.
The OCR API and Files API let you embed the same conversion engine in your own product, with support for Python and CLI workflows and full PDF document processing.
Convert PDFs to LaTeX, Word, Excel, Markdown, HTML or Overleaf-ready output, and images to LaTeX, AsciiMath, CSV or other structured formats.
A free, AI-powered academic search engine for 240M+ papers across every scientific field
Search 241 million-plus publications from every scientific field using natural-language queries that match meaning rather than exact keywords.
Each indexed paper gets a one-sentence machine-generated TLDR so you can triage results before committing to reading the full text.
An augmented PDF reader that highlights citations, definitions, equations and figures inline, and shows which later papers cited the passage you are reading.
See how a paper was cited, whether citations were influential, and which references shaped the work — useful for literature reviews and citation chasing.
