## What is PubMinder?

PubMinder is an AI-powered research feed for scientists, students, and curious minds. It aggregates the latest preprints and journal articles from bioRxiv, medRxiv, arXiv, and PubMed — then summarizes each one in 2–3 plain-English sentences using Apple Intelligence (on-device) or Groq's free AI.

WHAT IT DOES

Fetches the newest papers from the subjects you care about
Summarizes every abstract automatically — no reading walls of text
Opens papers in a built-in reader, so you never lose your place
Lets you save and share papers with one tap
Search your saved papers and sort by date, title, or source
Supports keyword filtering so only relevant papers reach your feed

ORGANIZE YOUR LIBRARY (PRO)

Add tags and notes to any saved paper
Group papers into collections and browse by project
Export your library to BibTeX, RIS, or CSV — import straight into Zotero, EndNote, or Mendeley, with authors, year, and journal included

SOURCES INCLUDED

bioRxiv — biology and life sciences preprints
medRxiv — medical and clinical preprints
arXiv — physics, mathematics, and computer science preprints
PubMed — peer-reviewed journal articles via NCBI E-utilities

AI SUMMARIZATION
On Apple Intelligence-capable devices (A17 Pro, A18, or M-series chips, iOS 26+), summaries run entirely on-device — no internet, no API key needed. On other devices, PubMinder uses Groq's free cloud AI. A free Groq API key takes about 2 minutes to set up at console.groq.com.

PRO
AI summaries and your saved library are free. A single one-time purchase (no subscription) unlocks tags, notes, collections, unlimited subjects, and library export.

PRIVACY
PubMinder does not collect personal data, require an account, or track you. API keys are stored in the iOS Keychain, not in plain text.
