Octree – open-source AI LaTeX Editor

Generate Agent can spit out a complete, compilable LaTeX paper (sections, abstract, citation scaffolding, placeholders for figures/tables) from one prompt and also returns a compiled PDF — that is an unusually concrete AI UX for research writing. It also promises TikZ generation and an inline PDF preview, which are genuinely useful. My caveat: automated citation/text generation risks hallucinations and the real value will depend on model provenance, reproducibility settings, and how well it integrates with existing citation workflows.

Paper Banana – AI academic illustration generator

The product nails a focused niche: text-to-academic-figure workflows with extras like I2I editing, a multi-agent Retriever→Planner→Stylist→Visualizer→Critic pipeline, and explicit support for diagram vs. plot modes. The landing looks tidy and the mention of DDPM/ResNet and plot-code output suggests real engineering under the hood, but the space is crowded (BioRender, generalist image LLMs, fig-helpers) and model transparency, failure modes and export fidelity for journal submission are the open questions.
