Translate entire LaTeX academic papers while preserving formatting and structure.
Proofread and improve grammar in research papers and Markdown documents using AI.
Summarize ArXiv papers by pasting a URL to quickly understand key findings.
Analyze entire Python or C++ codebases to understand structure and generate documentation.
Requires API keys for OpenAI and Claude; Docker simplifies setup but not mandatory.
GPT Academic is a Python-based web application that provides a feature-rich interface for interacting with large language models, with a specific focus on academic and research workflows. The description and README are primarily in Chinese. The tool is designed to make tasks like reading, proofreading, translating, and writing academic papers faster and more convenient, while also supporting code analysis tasks. The application works as a Gradio-based web UI that you run locally or on a server. It connects to multiple AI models simultaneously, including GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 from OpenAI, Claude, Chinese models like Qwen, ChatGLM, DeepSeek Coder, and others, letting you query several at once for comparison. The plugin system is a key feature: one-click plugins handle specific tasks like translating entire LaTeX papers (preserving the formatting), summarizing ArXiv papers by URL, proofreading grammar in LaTeX documents, analyzing entire Python or C++ project codebases, translating or proofreading Markdown files, batch-generating code comments, and more. The interface renders mathematical formulas in both their raw LaTeX form and the typeset display form side by side, which is useful for academic work. You would use this tool if you are a researcher, graduate student, or academic who frequently reads and writes papers, especially in fields that use LaTeX, and wants to use AI assistance for translation, polishing, and summarization without tediously copying and pasting. It is also useful for developers who want to analyze codebases with AI. The tech stack is Python with Gradio for the web interface, supporting Docker deployment. Multiple API keys from different providers can be configured simultaneously.
