An open-source AI review tool for researchers

Analyze your paper from multiple angles.
Revise with clear priorities.

CScope is an open-source AI paper review and revision tool for researchers. Given a paper in PDF or LaTeX and a target venue, it surveys the surrounding research, examines the method and experiments, checks consistency across the manuscript, and produces venue-specific review feedback and revision suggestions.

Analysis workflow

A connected workflow built around the paper's central contribution.

Evidence from earlier stages informs later assessments, while every conclusion can be checked against the manuscript and the relevant literature.

01

Research landscape

Starts from the Related Work section and in-text citations to map adjacent research directions and explain where the paper sits within them.

02

Conference compliance

Checks page limits, anonymity, fonts, page size, and other format requirements defined by the target venue.

03

Method and technical approach

Examines whether the proposed method is coherent, whether key design choices are justified, and whether related work suggests viable alternatives.

04

Logical consistency

Checks whether claims are supported and whether the text, equations, figures, tables, conclusions, and appendices agree with one another.

05

Multi-perspective review

Reviews novelty, methodology, logic, experiments, and writing from separate perspectives, then combines them into a venue-aware assessment.

06

Section feedback and revision plan

Identifies problems section by section and turns findings from the full workflow into a revision plan ordered by importance.
