Why AskSia

The paper summarizer built for academic reading.

Most paper chatbots ignore the structure that makes a paper a paper. AskSia breaks each paper into abstract, methods, findings, and limitations, with page-level citations.

Sectional summary by default

AskSia identifies abstract, introduction, methodology, results, discussion, limitations, and references, and gives a structured summary for each section with citations.

Section by section

Up to 100 papers in one session

Drop a full lit-review reading list (30, 50, 100 papers) into one session. AskSia indexes every page across every paper and lets you ask cross-paper questions in one chat.

Lit review at scale

Cited to the exact page

Every claim in the summary carries a [N] marker. Hover it to see the exact page of the source paper with the passage highlighted. Click to jump into the paper at that page.

Page-level citations

arXiv, JSTOR, PubMed, PLOS

Paste public URLs from arXiv, JSTOR, PubMed, PLOS, ScienceDirect, and similar repositories. AskSia reads the paper directly without download. For paywalled papers, upload the PDF instead.

Repository support

Cross-paper synthesis

Ask 'which papers disagree on X?', 'compare methodology across these studies', or 'what are the open questions across this literature?'. Synthesized answer with per-paper citations.

Cross-paper synthesis

Reference extraction

AskSia extracts the references list from each paper and exports as BibTeX, RIS, or formatted citation strings (APA, MLA, Chicago), useful for building your own bibliography from a lit-review session.
