## Description

Your reading list. Ready for your commute.
You keep saving papers. You rarely get to read them. ResearchPod turns the research papers on your list into audio explanations, so you finally get through your backlog on the way to work.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Save a paper. Share it from Safari or your PDF app, search arXiv and PubMed, or upload a PDF.
2. Get an episode. In about two minutes, two hosts walk through the question, method, findings, and limitations. Not a flat read-aloud.
3. Listen on your next commute. Download it, put your phone away, and arrive knowing which papers deserve your desk time.

BUILT FOR THE WAY IN
- Offline downloads for the underground and no-signal stretches
- Background and lock-screen playback
- Full transcript when you want to follow along
- Send papers in from any app with the share sheet

AND WHEN YOU GET TO YOUR DESK
- A written summary of every paper
- Ask the paper a question and get answers cited to the page
- Audiobook-style narration when you want the text verbatim

Used by grad students, postdocs, and faculty at Duke, ETH Zurich, TU Munich, KTH, and LMU.
