Use Cases
Three research jobs Mdtero already makes easier
These examples map directly onto the current workflow: discovery, translation reading, and evidence-preserving review work.
Weekly Discovery
Pair Semantic Scholar discovery with a reproducible capture loop
Use Semantic Scholar to surface new papers, then feed the shortlisted links into Mdtero so each candidate becomes a consistent package for screening and note taking.
Every Friday, collect this week's promising papers from Semantic Scholar, send the selected links through Mdtero, and return a shortlist with package links and one-line relevance notes.
Translation
Translate a paper without losing its research structure
Instead of pasting a raw PDF into a chat, start from the Markdown package and produce a cleaner translation that still preserves figures, sections, and references.
Take this Mdtero package, translate the paper into Chinese, keep the section structure, and flag any equations, figures, or ambiguous terminology that need manual review.
Literature Review
Draft a literature review from evidence-preserving packages
Once a set of papers is normalized into the same package format, your agent can compare claims, extract methods, and draft a review without fighting format drift.
Compare these Mdtero packages, group them by method and evidence type, then draft a literature review outline with citations back to each paper package.
