I was hoping for this to announce a tool for research.

Anyone know of the best way to do something like:

"Find most relevant papers related to topic XYZ, download them, extract metadata, generate big-picture summary and entity-relationship graph"?

Having a nice workflow for this would be the best thing since sliced bread for hobbyists interested in niche science topics.

Recently found https://minicule.com which is free and lets you search + import, but it focuses more on "concept-extraction" than LLM synthesis/summary.

I built a public literature review search tool for some graduate student friends that became pretty popular in the Santa Barbara area. It actually does exactly what you are describing.

It’s not neural network based: it leverages hierarchical mixture models to give a statistical overview of the data. It lets you build these analysis graphs via search or citation networks.

This is genuinely incredible, tried it using a recent-ish paper on the pharmacology and mechanisms of the Androgen Receptor and my mind is blown:
