Chonvy
Chat with any research PDF
Upload a paper, explore its structure, and get answers cited to the exact passage — not vague summaries.
Free to try · No sign-up · Built for students & researchers
Like ChatGPT for papers — but every answer is grounded in your PDF, with citations you can open.
How it works
From upload to cited answer in three steps
- 1
Upload your PDF
Drop a research paper or report. We extract sections, figures, and tables while the viewer opens.
- 2
Explore the structure
Jump through the outline, skim figures, and select text or regions on the page as context.
- 3
Ask with proof
Chat about methods, results, or figures. Every answer cites a passage you can open instantly.
Why Chonvy
Built for how researchers actually read
Summarize, compare, and ask questions — with the paper always in view.
Citation-backed answers
Every reply points to a specific passage so you never have to trust a black box.
Side-by-side reading
PDF, outline, and chat stay open together — built for how researchers actually work.
Figures & tables extracted
Browse figures and tables from the sidebar instead of hunting through dozens of pages.
Select & ask
Highlight text or box a figure, then ask what it means in the paper’s own context.
