PapersGPT brings AI capabilities directly into Zotero, allowing users to chat with PDFs and extract insights. Its AutoPilot feature functions as an autonomous research agent that can process 100+ papers overnight, analyzing them based on user-defined prompts and saving results directly to Zotero notes. The plugin supports a wide range of LLMs including Gemini, GPT, Claude, DeepSeek, Grok, and others, with MCP protocol integration for enhanced AI tooling.
