Thanks for the heads up, my kids and I caught a spectacular view of it!

I tried this on a manuscript—I’m impressed! It flagged:

- A missing variable in a first-order condition
- An outdated manual calc (“drop from X to Y is not Z%”)
- Inconsistent notation
- Miscellaneous typos (“and and”, “+ +”)
- Missing subscripts
- Several unclear passages
I've been working on a new tool, Refine, to make scholars more productive. If you're interested in being among the very first to try the beta, please read on.

Refine leverages the best current AI models to draw your attention to potential errors and clarity issues in research paper drafts.

I'm also impressed. I plan to use it with all of my papers going forward.

Nothing in particular that I can remember—I made the decision quickly and liked the metal smooth look

I hope there will be choice: let users use algorithm if it improves their feed, or opt out if it does not

Number of top 5’s: new metric coming soon to Google Scholar!

Has I4R thought about doing their own replication of this paper?
