Live compilation

No more 30-second compilations. See your edits on the PDF in real time.

Never copy a BibTeX again

Literati ships with a citation database of 200M papers, all with BibTeX we pull straight into your .bib file. Download the paper and read and annotate it in the app.

Built so you can trust and control AI agents

Claude Code and the in-app agent both reach your paper through the Literati plugin — which can only add citations that came back from the citations API.

Find the papers you are missing

Add related work with our Claude Code plugin. Claude can only update .bib files by adding papers through our citations API — which means it is impossible for it to hallucinate a paper.

Synthesize what you have read

Chat with Claude about the papers in your library, with evidence you can click through to. When the picture is clear, ask it to draft your related-work section.

Check your work, claim by claim

With /review, Claude collates every citation claim and presents line-level evidence, so you can check each one for faithfulness. Git tracks and commits it all through the plugin MCP — no Git bridge needed, though we built one anyway.

…and debug LaTeX errors

When a build breaks, the compile bar offers to debug it. The in-app agent reads the log, patches the source, and recompiles until it is green.
