Thanks, I'll keep on improving. Also what do you think about a paid version where AI is integrated? So imagine each paper having an AI generated image cover, the summaries being more descriptive, and you can also converse with the ai to explain specific words/concepts right in the app. Do you think people would pay for it?

The AI image cover idea should be free - colours help keep the mind from becoming distracted.

The content processing could be good, especially if it was to decrease the complexity of the language and simplify the concepts. I would take care that the descriptions could be horribly wrong and misleading.

I would probably look to monetize in a different way:

1. Synchronization of papers across devices.

2. Notes on papers, that could also be shared.

3. A service to find publications of that paper (arXiv isn't always updated with this).

I like that idea and do think it'll be quite valuable if it had that.

But you're probably better off discussing monetization with the other more intelligent experts here. I'm just a lurker :)
