Arxivist

Arxivist ranks each day's new arXiv papers against your own research — privately, on your device. HOW IT WORKS Tell Arxivist about your research once — by author name, by keywords, or by just picking categories to explore — and it builds a private, on-device profile. Every day, it fetches the newest papers in your chosen arXiv categories and ranks them by how closely they match, so the papers most relevant to you rise to the top instead of getting buried in a firehose of new submissions. PRIVATE BY DESIGN There's no account and no tracking. Your research profile, your bookmarks, and everything Arxivist learns about your interests stay on your device — none of it is ever uploaded. Ranking runs on a local machine-learning model, not a cloud API. To load papers quickly, the app asks a lightweight paper-cache service for each day's public arXiv papers in the categories you follow (category codes and a date only — no identifiers), and falls back to arXiv directly if it's unavailable. BUILT FOR HOW RESEARCH ACTUALLY WORKS • Cross-category discovery: if papers outside your selected categories keep matching your interests, Arxivist notices and offers to add that category • Bookmarks refine your ranking over time, blended alongside your original profile • 14 days of papers cached on-device, so you can browse offline — navigate back to any day, and Arxivist fetches that day's full announcement list if it isn't already cached • Works across arXiv's full category taxonomy spanning CS, math, physics, statistics, and more Arxivist is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by arXiv or Cornell University.
