Yea, looks like a lot of people uploaded articles today. I have a 20 article per day cap now because I’m paying for it. I could change to a simple cost+ model but don’t want to bother until I see if people like it. Ideas for splitting the difference so more people can use it without breaking my bank appreciated

You should just whip up some simple cost plus payment, with a low plus. I'd probably use it now.

cool, thanks

So far i really like what it does for the example articles shown. I want to test it on 1 or 2 articles I know well, and if it passes that test it's a product I'd totally pay for.

appreciate it, thanks

can i spin this up myself? is the code anywhere? thanks!

I don't want to downplay the effort here but from my experience you can get yourself a neat interactive summary html with a short prompt and a good model (Opus 4.5+, Codex 5.2+, etc).

Can you give am example of the most useful prompting you find for this? I'd like to interact with papers just so I can have my attention held. I struggle to motivate myself to read through something that's difficult to understand

What's the cost per article?

Avg cost $0.65

No, it’s not open source. Not sure what I’m doing with it yet. Can you give me more info on why you’d want to install it yourself? Is this an enterprise thing?

It's down and it could be interesting to iterate on.

Fair. If you want to see the architecture, here's the DevLog: https://johndamask.substack.com/p/devlog-now-i-get-it

Great work OP.

This is super helpful for visual learners and for starting to onboard one's mind into a new domain.

Excited to see where you take this.

Might be interesting to have options for converting Wikipedia pages or topic searches down the line.
