DeepTutor is an AI-powered research assistant designed for deep reading, understanding, and retrieval of academic materials from your own research library.
Whether you’re a PhD student reviewing literature, a researcher reading new papers, or a student working through dense course materials, DeepTutor is designed to support deep, focused reading without changing your existing workflow.
Ask questions directly from your papers
Get clear, citation-backed answers grounded in your own documents.
Understand figures, formulas, and complex sections
Go beyond plain text to interpret charts, equations, and technical content.
Compare ideas across multiple papers
Synthesize insights and contrasts from several documents in a single conversation.
Work with your existing library
DeepTutor integrates seamlessly with Zotero, so you can keep using the tools you already trust—while exploring and understanding your entire library through conversation.
DeepTutor is built on top of the open-source Zotero project. Zotero manages your research library—including collections, metadata, and PDFs—while DeepTutor adds AI-powered tools for reading, asking questions, and generating insights from your materials.
If you’re new to Zotero, refer to the official Zotero Quick Start Guide and Zotero Connector to help you get started.
