ResearchPilot AI — Research Assistant Platform
An AI-powered web platform that helps researchers discover papers, summarize findings, track citations, and organize literature reviews using LLM-based tools.
Problem Statement
Researchers spend significant time on manual literature search and organization. Existing tools lack integration between discovery, reading, and knowledge management.
Method & Approach
Built a full-stack platform with Next.js frontend and Go backend, integrating Semantic Scholar API and OpenAI API for summarization. Supports tagging, citation tracking, and Markdown note-taking.
Dataset / Data Source
N/A — uses Semantic Scholar and arXiv APIs as data sources.
Results
MVP deployed and tested by a small group of graduate students. Positive feedback on literature search and paper summarization features.
