What is iAcademic?
The official website of AIXueShu is titled "AIXueShu_AI Document Reader". Its official description states that it is "an intelligent document management platform built on an independently developed AI academic large model", specially designed for researchers and scholars. It integrates academic dialogue, document management, AI document reading, AI writing, and AI document translation (with format retention) all in one platform, aiming to simplify the cumbersome scientific research process. Targeted at researchers and scholars, the platform emphasizes consolidating various capabilities in one place rather than scattering them across multiple software applications.

- Research group members who need to take notes while reading and link their notes to the literature.
- Master's and doctoral students who need standardized citation formats when writing papers.
- Researchers who struggle with reading English literature and need translation with the original layout preserved for comparison.
