About alphaXiv - Understand Research Papers

Understand papers in minutes - not hours. For any PDF or research paper (arXiv, bioRxiv, etc.) you can: - Seamlessly chat with AI directly on top of the document. Highlight any section of the paper and "@" other papers to quickly add context and compare results, benchmarks, etc. - Generate beautiful research blogs with figures, key insights, and clear explanations from the paper with just one click. Read in multiple languages. - Bookmark to save and read later. BibTex citations automatically generated. To make this happen, Chrome will ask for permissions to read & change data on all sites. The alphaXiv extension makes no changes other than 1) the presentation of PDFs, 2) the presentation of arXiv abstract pages, and 3) the presentation of links to arXiv.
