Each project has a live paper feed in the app. This feed is designed for fast review:
  • On desktop, you get a two-pane workspace with the paper list on the left and paper details on the right.
  • On smaller screens, the list stays on the page and paper details open in a sheet.

​
Open the feed

  1. Go to the Dashboard.
  2. Open a project.
When you open a project, you land directly in its feed.

​
Use the left-side controls

The left side is your triage area. Use the search box to filter the list by:
  • Paper title
  • Author names
  • Summary terms

​
Feedback filters

Use the feedback pills to focus the list:
  • No feedback: papers you have not rated yet
  • Useful: papers that fit the project well
  • Very useful: the strongest positive signal
  • Not for me: papers that are not a fit for this project
You can combine search and feedback filters. Click an active filter again to clear it.

​
Understand paper cards

The paper list is intentionally compact. Each row shows:
  • Title and authors
  • Source
  • Relevance percentage
  • Relevance class such as Must read or Related
  • An optional feedback status icon in the top-right corner

​
Open paper details

Click a paper in the list to inspect it in the detail pane. The right side shows:
  • Full title and authors
  • Metadata
  • Feedback controls
  • Abstract
  • Why the paper matched
  • Optional project note
  • Actions such as View PDF, View on source, AI summary, and Share

​
Leave feedback

The feedback controls help you classify what belongs in the project feed.
  • Useful: a good match that should help shape future recommendations
  • Very useful: a standout paper you want Paperzilla to treat as a strong positive example
  • Not for me: a poor fit for the project
If you choose Not for me, add a reason:
  • Off-topic
  • Low quality
If a paper no longer matches the active filter after you rate it, it may disappear from the left list. The detail pane stays open so you can finish the feedback action.

​
Why feedback matters

Feedback is not just for organizing the current list. It helps Paperzilla improve what it recommends next for that project.
  • Positive signals such as Useful and Very useful help reinforce the kinds of papers you want more often.
  • Negative signals such as Not for me help reduce papers that are off-topic or low quality.
  • The No feedback filter helps you work through fresh papers without losing track.

​
Suggested workflow

  1. Start with No feedback.
  2. Search if you want to narrow the list by topic, author, or phrase.
  3. Open papers one by one and read the right pane.
  4. Mark each paper as Useful, Very useful, or Not for me.
  5. Use Very useful to build a shortlist of the strongest papers.
  6. Use AI summary or Share when you want to go deeper or send a paper to someone else.

​
When the feed is empty

If a project is new or very narrow, you may see no papers yet. Try:
  1. Waiting for the next evaluation cycle.
  2. Widening interest text slightly.
  3. Removing overly strict exclude terms.
  4. Enabling adjacent papers.
