Terms of Use

PaperFinder is a free research-discovery service operated by Praneeth Labs. It searches public scholarly sources and links to legitimate, publicly available copies of research. It does not require an account and has no paid tier.

PaperFinder is a discovery and navigation tool. It links to legitimate, publicly available sources. You agree not to use it to infringe copyright, bypass access controls, or violate any third-party source's terms.

Search results, metadata, access information and AI-generated summaries are provided "as is" and may be incomplete or inaccurate. AI summaries are machine-generated — always verify against the original source. Nothing here is legal, medical, or professional advice.

If you add your own AI or data-source API key, you are responsible for its use and any costs your provider charges. Keys are stored in your browser and used only to fulfil your requests.

PaperFinder does not host or distribute copyrighted full-text works. Rights to papers, datasets, code and other resources remain with their owners. Access is via the original, legitimate source.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, PaperFinder is not liable for any damages arising from use of the service or reliance on its results.

We may update these terms; continued use constitutes acceptance of the current version.
