Hey Product Hunt! 👋
Every time I opened an interesting paper I ended up with 15 tabs trying to answer the same basic questions: is this a big deal, who is building on it, and what should I read next?
PaperScope puts that on one screen. Paste a title or a DOI and you get a draggable map of neighbouring papers, where the venue sits in its field, how citations have trended, which countries cite it, and the researchers citing it most. There are also author and head-to-head compare modes, plus one-click BibTeX, poster and share exports.
Free, no login, open source, and every number comes from OpenAlex.
I would love feedback from anyone who reads papers regularly: what would make this a daily tool for you?
