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.
Copy YouTube transcripts and drop them straight into ChatGPT
Grab the transcript of the video you are watching and put it on your clipboard without scrolling through YouTube's transcript panel.
Choose plain running text for reading and summarising, or keep timestamps when you need to cite a specific moment in the video.
Push the transcript straight into ChatGPT instead of copying, switching tabs and pasting manually.
Longer videos are split into chunked prompts so the full transcript still reaches the AI within message limits.
