Roadmap
Research writing features we are working on and planning to build — updated every week from June 12 onwards. To be fully transparent.

- Smoother Agent Conversations — Unified chat across the side panel and fullscreen mode, faster streaming, and more seamless tool runs (citations, edits, compile fixes) without losing context.
- Project Command Palette — Search-driven command bar in the project editor: insert LaTeX, open AI tools, compile, export PDF, jump to outline, and access workspace tools from one place.

Where to use Presentation & Poster Generators
Both tools live inside Bibby Agent on your LaTeX project — not as a separate upload page. Open a project, ask the agent, preview the compiled PDF in chat, then export.
Presentation Generator
- Open a Bibby project with your LaTeX paper or PDF
- Ask Bibby Agent: “Create a conference slide deck from my paper”
- Preview Beamer PDF in chat → export PowerPoint (PPTX) or PDF
Poster Generator
- Open a Bibby project with your paper or abstract
- Ask Bibby Agent: “Generate an A0 conference poster — emphasize results”
- Preview tikzposter PDF in chat → export print-ready PDF or PNG
Best for: conference talks, thesis defenses, poster sessions, journal clubs, and lab meetings. Pair with AI Paper Review before you submit or present.

What's Coming Next
Starting June 12, we ship a major update every week — a full platform redesign plus new AI research skills.
The AI scientist — coming soon
Bibby is evolving from a LaTeX editor into an AI research assistant — with literature review search, hypothesis generation, in-editor code execution, and data analysis built into your workflow.
Weekly Release Schedule
One major update every week from June 12 onwards.
More Blogs & Niche LaTeX Content — Weekly
New in-depth tutorials, field-specific LaTeX guides, cheatsheets, and blog posts published alongside our weekly releases. Explore our LaTeX guides →
AI Search Engine for Scientific Research
A dedicated AI-powered search engine built for science. Search across preprints, peer-reviewed journals, datasets, and lab notebooks — and get synthesized, cited answers instead of just links.
Know What the FDA Thinks — Regulatory AI
Instantly answer regulatory questions by referencing up to 1,000 documents from public health authority databases — FDA, EMA, WHO, and more — without hallucinations. Designed for researchers in life sciences, clinical trials, and drug development.
Data Analysis
Upload datasets and let Bibby help you explore, visualize, and interpret results. Statistical summaries, chart generation, and analysis narratives that plug straight into your paper — all grounded in your actual data.
Presentation & Poster Generators
Generate full academic slide decks and conference posters from your paper inside Bibby Agent — compiled PDF preview plus PowerPoint and PNG export.
Code Execution
Run Python, R, and analysis scripts directly inside Bibby — no context switching. Execute code blocks, inspect outputs, and iterate on experiments without leaving your research document.
Literature Review Search
Dedicated literature review workflow in the editor and Bibby Agent — scan real sources, synthesize cited summaries, and draft related-work sections grounded in verified papers.
Hypothesis Search
AI-powered hypothesis generation and search grounded in your research context. Explore testable hypotheses from your notes, papers, and open questions — with citations and reasoning you can trace back to the literature.
Full Platform Redesign
A ground-up redesign of the Bibby editor and dashboard — cleaner typography, faster navigation, and a more focused writing experience. The new look sets the foundation for the AI scientist skills shipping over the following weeks.
Writing Styles & AI Personalities
Choose the writing personality that fits your paper. Options include: concise & precise, expansive & scholarly, conversational & clear, or formal & authoritative. Adapt your AI co-author to match your journal's tone or your own voice.
Advanced AI Model — Claude for Research Writing
A more powerful AI writing model fine-tuned specifically for academic research — built on Claude (Anthropic). Deeper scientific reasoning, better section coherence, and more nuanced language that sounds like a seasoned researcher, not a chatbot.
Status Page — Uptime & Reliability
A live status page so you always know if Bibby AI is fully operational. Track uptime, incidents, and scheduled maintenance in real time — because your deadlines can't afford surprises.
AI-Generated Academic Lab Websites
Generate a beautiful, professional academic website for your research lab in minutes — powered by AI. Showcase your team, publications, projects, and open positions without writing a single line of code. Perfect for PIs and research groups who want an online presence that reflects the quality of their work.
Choose Your Own LLM
Select between Gemini (Google) and Claude (Anthropic) — two of the most powerful and research-compliant AI models available. We will never use OpenAI for security and ethical reasons.
Research Paper → GitHub Academic Website
Automatically generate a public GitHub academic website for your research paper — so anyone can find, read, and cite your work online.
Automatic Journal Preparation
Paste in a journal's author guidelines and Bibby AI automatically reformats your paper to match — margins, font sizes, section ordering, citation style, and more.
LaTeX to Word & Word to LaTeX Converters
Seamlessly convert your documents between LaTeX and Microsoft Word with preserved formatting and equations.
