👋 Hey Product Hunt!
I’m Sina, founder of Chirpz AI — a tool I built as a researcher who got tired of spending hours digging for the right papers. You know the drill: you have an idea, open Google Scholar or ArXiv, type a dozen variations of your query, and end up buried under irrelevant results.
That’s the gap Chirpz closes — it’s the AI that bridges your thoughts to the unknown citations that fit best. Instead of you hopping across tabs, Chirpz brings the discovery to you. It understands your writing and finds the perfect paper, all inside a single, focused, and magical environment.
What it does:
✍️ Write or import into the Chirpz notebook—a minimal editor built for focused work.
🪄 Type /Cite — your magic button for instant discovery. It reads your context and scours research databases.
👀 Get a ranked list of most relevant papers with relevance scores, ready to review at a glance.
🔗 Insert your citation: auto-insert the best match or choose manually—all without leaving your editor.
Who it’s for:
🎓 PhD students & researchers writing “Related Work” or exploring new topics.
📝 Grad students racing to find foundational papers for projects.
🧑💻 R&D teams, engineers, and data scientists exploring the academic roots of new tech.
🧠 Curious minds who simply want to know where ideas come from.
🚀 Try it out here: https://chirpz.ai
I’ll be here all day to answer questions and hear your feedback — what topics are you exploring, and what would make Chirpz even better?
Thanks for checking us out 🙏

@sina_tayebati that's total relief. congrats on the launch, keep it up at Chirpz!

@mohsinproduct Thanks for the support Mohsin. would love to hear feedback 🚀

@sina_tayebati Chirpz looks super promising I love the idea of writing directly in your notes and instantly finding relevant research papers without leaving the page. That “/cite” feature feels like a real time-saver for anyone doing research or writing technical content.
Chirpz
@chrishicken Thanks so much! 🙏🏼
That’s exactly what we aimed for — making it effortless to discover and cite papers right where you write. The “/cite” feature was built to help researchers not only find papers effortlessly but also uncover citations you never knew existed. Really glad it resonates with you! 🚀
Hi Sina, this looks super useful! Quick question: does it or will it have the ability to read paid journals through a university ID? Although I assume doing this may involve obtaining some approvals etc. Either way, really useful tool.
Chirpz
@jollytango Thanks for the great question! We don’t currently support authenticating to paid journal databases using your personal university credentials, but we’ll keep this idea in mind for future updates to better support researcher community.
This looks super useful, especially for people tired of juggling between ArXiv, Google Scholar, and endless PDFs. How does Chirpz decide which databases to search from like is it limited to open-access sources or does it integrate with paid journals too?

@lak7 Thanks, Lakshay! Glad to hear Chirpz resonated with you.
Under the hood, Chirpz first reviews your paragraph and overall writing context, then intelligently decides which database to query. Generally talking, for topics in computer science, math, physics, or AI, it primarily uses ArXiv, since it’s the most up-to-date and widely used source in those areas. For other topics, it taps into broader open databases.
Currently, Chirpz doesn’t provide full access to paid or licensed sources, but it does collect all relevant metadata so you can still reference those papers.
Searching across databases and surfacing top matches with citations and metadata. Smarter research, zero tab-hopping.

@vivek_sharma_25 that’s precisely the idea 👌🏽
I have an idea of how it could be used in patent litigation. Feel free to reach out if you wish to discuss.
Chirpz
@founder_haagknight Thanks for reaching Jonathan, it sounds very interesting!
Very useful, great idea. What scholarly sources does it use for its search?
Chirpz
@ron_creates Thanks a lot! Chirpz currently searches across Arxiv for computer science focused topics, and Semantic Scholar and OpenAlex for broader research domains — with more database integrations coming soon. 🚀
I've pasted abstract of ReAct paper, says no result, should I expect this outcome?
Chirpz
@cheng_ju Hi Cheng, no thats not what we expect. did you try typing \Cite and tapping on the button? There’s also a magic button on the left side of each paragraph that can activate the agent and search for papers relative to your whole paragraph. Let me know how it goes.
