The problem it solves

Digging through Google Scholar or arXiv for a specific paper, then reading the abstract to see if it's relevant, takes real time out of your day. You want the key findings fast, not another browser tab open.

Who it fits

A researcher, student, or analyst who needs quick summaries of academic papers.

How it works

  1. You send a question, link, or topic through a chat message
  2. AI figures out what paper or search you're asking about
  3. The system finds and pulls the paper's title, abstract, and publication details
  4. AI summarizes the findings and sends the summary back in chat, or as a file if it's long
What you get

Paper summaries without the reading

You can ask about any academic paper and get a clear summary sent straight to your chat, no digging required.

What you get

A concise summary of the requested academic paper delivered straight in chat.

What you need

A Telegram bot account and a Google Gemini API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
