Features

Everything linXiv does, organized around a single library you host yourself.

Search & save

Search arXiv, OpenAlex, or your local library. Resolve any DOI. Keep versioned metadata in your own SQLite database.

Projects & notes

Group papers by research thread. Attach reading notes scoped to each project — one paper can belong to many contexts.

Knowledge graph

Explore papers, authors, and tags in an interactive force-directed graph with live physics controls.

Read in-app

Embedded PDF viewer and rich paper detail views. Full-text search over downloaded TeX source.

Import & export

Bring in PDFs, BibTeX, and .lxproj archives. Export projects to Obsidian, BibTeX, or shareable .lxproj bundles.

Built to self-host

Run linXiv on your laptop, lab machine, or server. Your PDFs and metadata stay under your control — not a vendor's cloud.
