Discover is a public feed of the latest AI research from arXiv — each paper distilled to a layered read.

Visit gist.is/discover. No account. No install. Just click and read.

What you get

Every paper in Discover has the full layered reader:

  • The Gist — the finding in one sentence.
  • The Logic — the argument structure: what the authors claim, how they tested it, what the evidence says. As many slides as the proof needs.
  • The Challenge — the strongest objection to the paper's claims.
  • The Rebuttal — the answer to that objection, from a new angle. Not a simple defense of the paper; it reframes the question both sides were arguing.

Research papers are argument-shaped, so every Discover read follows this arc.

How to use it

  1. Go to gist.is/discover.
  2. Read the Gist. Swipe (or press ) to go deeper.
  3. Press Next when you are ready for another paper.

The feed refreshes continuously as new papers land on arXiv. Every session is different.

Share anything you find

See something worth sharing? Use the share button in the reader. The recipient gets the same layered read — no account or install needed on their end.

Listen to it

Every Discover paper can be listened to, not just read. Press play to hear the Gist and each layer read aloud. Useful on a commute, while walking, or when you just want to rest your eyes.

Discover versus the extension

Discover is a browsing surface — it brings papers to you. The extension lets you Gist anything you find yourself. They complement each other: use Discover to explore, use the extension to read what you already have.

What is next

  • The layers — the structure behind every Discover read.
  • Install Gist — bring the same layered reading to everything you read, not just arXiv.
