DeepTutor is an AI research assistant that combines Zotero and AI for academic reading and research workflow management. It is meant for people who want to avoid switching among separate tools for papers, notes, and questions while working through research materials.
The service says it unifies managing papers, taking notes, and asking questions live in one reading workspace. It can understand an entire research library and answer with full context, and it supports importing files from Zotero, cloud drives, and SQL databases. DeepTutor also interprets figures, formulas, and text with verifiable citations, and it can run code and generate slides directly from papers. Other listed functions include translating papers into 14 languages, auto-tagging papers for easier organization, and sharing works with others. Its feature descriptions also mention context-aware answers and summaries, source-linked insights, and detailed summarization, comparison, and conceptual linking of sources.
DeepTutor is available as a webapp and as a download, with options to try it in the browser or download it for free. The site also says users can sign up to save chat history and access more features. It is described as built for researchers and students, and some user testimonials on the page also mention PhD students, professors, medical students, research assistants, and research fellows. The page presents it as an AI-powered reading workspace and research assistant rather than a standalone document repository.
The site includes links for pricing, user guide, FAQ, blog, changelog, about, terms of service, and privacy policy, and it identifies KnoWhiz in the footer contact area. Copyright on the page is shown as © 2026 DeepTutor.
