Paperpile

Doctors don’t need another tab to manage. 💡 Tip: You can save multiple citations from an OpenEvidence response at once with the Paperpile extension.

How many tabs do you have open right now? You probably find papers with various tools: search engines like Google Scholar and PubMed, AI discovery tools like Consensus and Google Scholar Labs, and citation networks like ResearchRabbit and Litmaps. Each one adds more tabs and more downloads.

In case you’ve missed it, we’ve launched a YouTube channel 🎉 We’re starting with short tutorials on finding research papers, organizing your library, and best practices for reading and annotating. We’ll also publish tutorials showing you how to use new Paperpile features as they’re released.

Starting a literature review means solving two problems: finding the right papers, and keeping track of the ones you’ve collected. Join our webinar on November 4th. We’ll show you how to use ResearchRabbit to find papers, and Paperpile to organize what you find and cite it as you write.

An AI-generated claim isn’t the same as evidence. Even when an AI response includes a citation, you still need to search through the paper to check whether the source supports the claim. Paperpile’s AI integration gives you answers with clickable citations that take you straight to the evidence.

Not sure where to submit your manuscript? 🤔 The Paperpile Journal Finder helps you compare journals that match your manuscript. Search by title, abstract, or keywords, and get a ranked list of up to 100 journals with publisher info, indexing databases, quality metrics, and open access costs.

OneDrive sync is here, in private beta. 🌟 Sync your Paperpile library, including PDFs and supplementary files automatically to a Paperpile folder in your OneDrive. Works alongside Google Drive if you use both.

A NeurIPS submission got caught with hallucinated citations. The authors' admitted they asked ChatGPT to fill in BibTeX from paraphrased in-text citations. We ran a simulation to see how often this fails, and built a free tool to catch it. #AcademicSky

We spot-checked today's top AI assistants on the same task. ChatGPT and Claude were relatively clean. Gemini had more hallucinations. The difference? ChatGPT and Claude ran dozens of web searches while generating the output. Web search is what grounds these tools.

We ran a simulation to understand this. We took 76 references, paraphrased them, and asked different models to convert them to BibTeX. - The “thinking” or “pro” model in an AI assistant outperforms the “instant” or “lite” model. - Including web search results can reduce hallucinations.

Why now? This month alone, large-scale analyses in The Lancet and on arXiv highlighted how widespread hallucinated citations have become. And arXiv announced a severe penalty for submitting manuscripts with hallucinations.

Hallucinated citations are showing up in preprints. We built Paperpile Citation Checker to check your bibliography before you submit. Here's what we learned along the way 1/3

- The “thinking” or “pro” model in an AI assistant outperforms the “instant” or “lite” model - Including web search results can reduce hallucinations - The riskiest references to ask AI for are newer, less-cited papers. Highly-cited papers show up often in training data, so models get them right 2/3

At Paperpile, it's our job to be obsessed about citation accuracy. So we built a free tool to flag incorrect references before you submit a preprint. Paste in a BibTeX file and the Citation Checker verifies every reference in real time.

Paperpile now saves references directly from Google Scholar Labs, the new search tool that lets you find papers using natural language questions instead of keywords. The summary is automatically added as a note, so you keep the context of why a paper matched your question, not just the citation.

We've been working on something we're really excited about: a direct connection between your Paperpile library and the AI assistants you already use. ✨️ You can now send PDFs to ChatGPT, NotebookLM, or Claude. 1/2

Paperpile's first AI-native integration lets you send PDFs directly to ChatGPT, NotebookLM, or any supported AI assistant — right from your library 💫 Find the key quotation or data point that unlocks the next step in your research.

Presentation tip: Design your talk for non-specialists. While you should aim your talk at the majority of the room, make it accessible to the least knowledgeable person present. 1/2 #AcademicSky
