Helpful tool for researchers. Thanks a lot.

Awesome! Very helpful for me. IMHO, it's very easy to use. You just open any abstract page of arVix and send it to paper.cool via right-click menu, then you will get a high quality summary of the paper created by LLM. But right now, it can only create summary in Chinese using KIMI chatbot service.
