Paperite

What Paperite is

Paperite is a web-based collaborative AI workspace for academic writing. It generates outlines, sections, or full drafts for research articles, literature reviews, essays, case studies, and technical reports, and can use uploaded academic papers and PDFs as source material. Its literature review feature identifies themes, trends, influential papers, and research gaps across uploaded literature. A research library organizes references and accepts BibTeX imports; Paperite can insert in-text citations and create bibliographies in over 2,000 citation styles. The editor supports Rich Text, Markdown, LaTeX, and Typst while preserving document structure across formats. Exports include Word, PDF, LaTeX, Typst, Markdown, and BibTeX. Collaboration features include real-time editing, inline comments, and version history. Changes are cached locally and synced when the user reconnects. The Free plan costs nothing and has limits on uploads and AI use. Plus costs $15 a month billed annually, while Pro costs $29 a month billed annually.
