+
+[GitHub](https://github.com/TIGER-AI-Lab/ScholarCopilot) | [Demo Playground](https://fc08561cb587866f9a.gradio.live/)
+
+ScholarCopilot-v1 is the foundation model of ScholarCopilot. Scholar Copilot improves the academic writing process by seamlessly integrating automatic text completion and intelligent citation suggestions into a cohesive, human-in-the-loop AI-driven pipeline. Designed to enhance productivity and creativity, it provides researchers with high-quality text generation and precise citation recommendations powered by iterative and context-aware Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
+
+The current version of Scholar Copilot leverages a state-of-the-art 7-billion-parameter language model (LLM) trained on the complete Arxiv full paper corpus. This unified model for retrieval and generation is adept at making context-sensitive decisions about when to cite, what to cite, and how to generate coherent content based on reference papers.
+
+## 🌟 Key Features
+
+- ** 📝 Next-3-Sentence Suggestions: Facilitates writing by predicting the next sentences with automatic retrieval and citation of relevant reference papers.
+- ** 📚 Citation Suggestions on Demand: Provides precise, contextually appropriate paper citations whenever needed.
+- ** ✨ Full Section Auto-Completion: Assists in brainstorming and drafting comprehensive paper content and structure.
+
+The current version of ScholarCopilot primarily focuses on the introduction and related work sections of academic papers. We will support full paper writing in future release.
