Ive always been interested in health, studies, all that stuff, but honestly it's just too much. Every day there are hundreds (if not thousands) of new papers, and most of them are either super technical, not relevant, or just impossible to keep up with.
So I built something mainly for myself.
It scans a large number of new studies daily, filters them down, and gives me a small set of summaries that are actually readable and (hopefully) relevant. Not trying to replace experts or give medical advice — more like a first-pass filter so I don’t miss important stuff.
One thing I care about a lot is making it easy to understand. So instead of academic language, it breaks things down into simple points, in your own language.
Long term, I want it to be more personalized — so you only get topics you actually care about (like heart health, chronic pain, etc.), instead of everything.
Not sure yet if this is actually useful for others or just solves my own problem, but that’s where I'm at right now.

2000 papers a day is a wild volume claim but honestly for health research the more interesting question is how you separate signal from noise. medical literature has such huge quality variance - is this filtering by journal, methodology, replication status, or something else

Hi, Im filtering based on some criteria like study type, participant count, replication status, etc. You can find more information on our faq on the homepage. If you need more, just ping me. Best,
