Show HN: Interactive Literature Reviews with Visual Knowledge Maps

[kanodiaashu]

I built a tool for academics and practitioners that turns literature reviews into interactive, visual experiences. Upload PDFs and HTML sources, and AI creates a knowledge map showing how everything connects.

What it does: - Upload research papers (PDFs) and web sources (HTML) - AI generates interactive knowledge maps from your sources - Skim read at a high level or read per-source/section summaries - Expand/build further specific sections of the map that interest you - Read original sources in context - Ask questions about the research and get contextual answers

I have curated some reviews on LLMs, Diffusion Models, Vision Language Models, AI Agents, Robotics, and Text-to-Speech.

Why I built this: I was constructing lit reviews with ChatGPT and getting lost in the walls of chat; I wanted to make a better experience for myself.

Please give me feedback on the UX/anything else!

I appreciate that you curated some examples so I could see the intent out of the box
