Show HN: Ask research paper figures (step-by-step explanations)

loganye Monday, February 02, 2026

I’m building DeepTutor to reduce the time spent reading papers. One feature we shipped: you can prompt a figure/plot and ask: “Explain what the figures mean step-by-step.”

It outputs a structured interpretation: axes/curves, phase changes, and the takeaway.

I’d love feedback on: 1) what figure types are hardest to interpret 2) what you’d want in the output (e.g., assumptions, caveats, comparisons)
