Research you can scroll through
Schrollar presents research in a feed, making it easier to browse papers before opening the full text. Our team built parallel search pipelines across academic sources and used LLMs to synthesize the results.
We used natural language inference to check whether generated claims were supported by the source material. The aim was to make summaries useful without losing the connection to the papers behind them.
My contributions focused on feed and detail views, onboarding, export, comments, source presentation, and model prompts/configuration, alongside some processing and grounding work. Search and infrastructure ownership are shared across the team.
The hackathon part
I messaged Niles about joining, then we brought in Gabe, Abby, and Charles. That became admulto. We spent late nights working at Aerie and filmed a demo together.
We realized about an hour before the initial deadline that we still needed a submission deck. We rushed it, made the top seven, and somehow repeated the deck scramble on finals day. We finished as 2nd runner-up.
