Papers, theses, books, slides: readers only ever see the typeset page.
So the page is where you should work, too.
No more compiling diffs in your head.
A source diff makes you imagine the PDF. Papilot shows it to you, typeset.
Mark a sentence, an equation or a figure, and write a note.
Your agent finds the source. You never open a .tex file.
Plain files on your machine. Every change lands in your Git history.
Sync with coauthors through Git. Pull, push, and let an agent resolve conflicts.
Free and open source. MIT licensed, for macOS, Linux and Windows.
