LitMind

• Inspiration Reading research papers takes time. I wanted a tool that helps students quickly understand papers and organize useful information for future research.

• What it does LitMind summarizes research papers, extracts chemical compounds, fetches molecular data from PubChem, generates BibTeX citations, and exports Markdown notes.

• How I built it Built with Python and Streamlit. It uses PyMuPDF for PDFs for paper metadata, and PubChem for chemical information.

• Accomplishments that I'm proud of Built a complete literature analysis workflow. Connected multiple scientific databases. Generated research-ready notes automatically.

• What I learned I learned how to build a full-stack Python application, work with scientific APIs, and automate research workflows.

• What's next for LitMind Add better AI summaries, semantic search, RDKit support, molecule visualization, and integration with tools like Zotero and Notion.
