I’m working on Paperboy (https://www.paper-boy.app/) a self-hostable service that generates a personalized daily research digest from recent arXiv papers (and optionally a few other sources).

It fetches new papers, scores them against a “research profile,” then produces concise summaries plus a short “why this matters” style rationale, and outputs an email/newsletter-like HTML digest. There’s also a small API for generating a digest, checking status, and previewing the render.

I built it because keyword alerts and generic newsletters were either too noisy or missed the stuff that was actually relevant to what I’m working on right now.
