Show HN: Dread Rising: Talk to Your Papers Before They Haunt You

Operating in show hn launch, Dread Rising operates.

Profile

Built Dread Rising because I got sick of reading 14 research papers just to retain 0 facts , it’s a tool that lets you drop in PDFs, gives you the highlighted the important stuff, chats with you like a smarter friend, finds related papers on arXiv, cross-checks answers with Google (if you turn that on). It’s Streamlit + Gemini + my frustration distilled into something actually useful. Use the hosted version here or run it locally from GitHub , clone it, install the deps, add your Gemini API key, and summon the beast. It's not here to write your paper, just to make sure you can.

Dread Rising is positioned in show hn launch, a segment that rewards a clear, focused offering.

Directory data places it at the Show HN launch stage.
