Description
If you write in Overleaf, Briefly helps you stay on top of the research behind it.
Every day, Briefly delivers a personalised AI research brief based on your tracked topics and your Overleaf project themes. It surfaces the papers most relevant to your work, so you spend less time searching and more time knowing. Simply connect your Overleaf account to access Briefly, pull in your active projects, and move between reading and writing without switching tools.
Summaries that save you hours. Daily AI research briefs break down the papers most relevant to your work and explain why they matter. Crisp, clear, and immediately useful.
A tailored insights feed that knows you. Briefly surfaces papers based on your Overleaf project themes, not just keywords you remembered to track. No more scrolling through overwhelming TOC alerts.
Listen anywhere. Audio summaries of your daily brief for the commute, the lab, or the moments between writing sessions.
Search backed by Dimensions. Find papers from the world's most comprehensive research database, right inside the app. Perfect for scanning a new area or preparing for that quick catch-up with your PI.
Your Overleaf projects, wherever you are. Access the latest compiled PDFs and stay on top of collaborator comments from your phone. Handy for journal clubs, hallway chats, or those "can you send me that draft?" moments.
Briefly is by Digital Science, the team behind Dimensions, Altmetric, and Overleaf. We build tools that help researchers do their best work, and Briefly is the latest.
