Arxivo

Desktop-first research agents

Cursor for research.

Arxivo is moving the serious research work into a desktop app: projects, papers, agents, evidence, and drafts in one focused workspace. Web stays here for download, account, billing, provider status, and shared read-only artifacts.

Use the right surface for the job.

The browser is no longer the main workbench. Install desktop for dense review and drafting; keep iOS for capture, status, and mobile decisions.

Desktop workbench

macOS 12 (Monterey) or later

Primary workspace for PDFs, projects, evidence maps, agent runs, and long-form drafting. macOS 12 (Monterey) or later • Apple Silicon and Intel builds. Desktop releases publish to GitHub Releases.

iOS control center

Start lightweight review, check run status, capture papers, and keep research moving.

Workflow

Agentic research without losing the sources.

Arxivo treats papers, evidence, and drafts as reviewable artifacts. The model helps move work forward; provenance stays visible.

Build a project

Collect papers, notes, source lists, and questions into one research workspace.

Run agents

Scout literature, map evidence, draft sections, and audit claims with source visibility.

Review artifacts

Inspect outlines, evidence reports, shortlists, and drafts before anything becomes final.

Models and privacy

Provider choice is part of the product.

Arxivo supports managed cloud, bring-your-own-key, and local modes as separate expectations. The web shell explains routing and billing; secrets and local execution belong to the app surfaces designed for them.

Arxivo Managed

Managed cloud model routing for users who want the simplest setup.

Cloud processing disclosed before agent work starts.

BYOK

Bring provider keys for teams that want their own model accounts and billing.

Arxivo charges orchestration separately from provider tokens.

Local

Use the desktop app as the bridge to local Ollama and private local runs.

Local inference does not spend Arxivo managed model credits.

Billing preview

Three modes, one account shell.

Managed

Arxivo model credits and subscription status.

BYOK

Platform/orchestration plan; provider tokens stay with your provider.

Local

Desktop/local worker expectations with no managed model credit spend.

Shared artifacts

Share the output, not the whole workbench.

Web artifact pages are read-only: shortlists, outlines, evidence reports, and draft previews with provenance summaries and a path back to the desktop app for editing.

Evidence report preview

Retrieval-augmented generation evaluation

Shared artifact pages summarize what was reviewed, which sources support the claims, and what still needs human review.
