PaperCat
A quiet librarian
for your research.
PaperCat watches the papers you read, learns what you care about, and recommends the next one worth your time.
How it works.
-
Install & sign in.
One click in the Chrome Web Store. Sign in with Google — no setup wizard, no questionnaire.
-
Read as you normally do.
Visit a paper on any supported journal. PaperCat automatically notes the title, abstract, and how long you read the paper.
-
A taste profile builds itself.
After a handful of papers, PaperCat forms a picture of your research areas of interest.
-
Wake to a small, sharp digest.
An email arrives every morning with a short ranked list of fresh papers, chosen for how closely they match your reading history.
