Sciweavers
Academic network aggregating research paper preprints and free online tools.
Sciweavers is an academic network that aggregates links to research paper preprints and organizes them into proceedings by conference name, year, or subject area. It addresses the challenge of discovering relevant papers within large volumes of preprints by sorting links using traffic-derived mechanisms, helping researchers identify top-ranked papers more efficiently.
The platform offers several preprint-related modules: Sci2Explore for browsing papers, Sci2Fame for viewing top-ranked papers by year and field, Sci2Track for monitoring paper traffic and statistics, and Sci2Claim for claiming ownership of preprint links. Additionally, it provides a suite of free productivity tools, including i2PDF for PDF utilities, i2OCR for optical character recognition in over 33 languages, i2IMG for image conversion, iTex2Img for converting LaTeX equations to images, and various keyboard tools such as i2Speak for IPA phonetics, i2Type for international on-screen typing, i2Arabic for Arabic transliteration, and i2Bopomo for Chinese Zhuyin input.
Sciweavers is designed for researchers and academics who need to navigate preprint literature and access practical utilities. The site does not mention a free plan, trial, or specific pricing editions; its preprint tools and productivity features appear to be available without charge.
