Hi HN!<p>Open Paper allows you to annotate and understand your research papers with an AI copilot.<p>I wanted a paper-reading assistant that let met actually dig into papers in-place while benefiting from AI tooling. When it comes to studying, I'm not a fan of the typical chat interfaces that obfuscate uploaded files and turn them into black box 'content'. Hence, I've implemented a split-pane view.<p>To mitigate the risk of hallucinations, all AI responses come with grounded citations that refer back to the source material in-flow.<p>Some feature highlights:<p>- Actually read your papers in one place with an AI chat<p>- Generate an audio overview from any paper<p>- Find related papers (powered by OpenAlex)<p>- Every AI response comes with grounded citations<p>- Inline annotations<p>- Compose your knowledge base with uploaded papers<p>- Swap between GPT4 and Gemini2.5 Pro<p>- Shareable annotations<p>What are you looking for in a research assistant? Would love to get some thoughts / feedback on what I've built so far :). Thank you!<p>Check out the GitHub --> <a href="https://github.com/sabaimran/openpaper">https://github.com/sabaimran/openpaper</a>
