AI Agents Research Digest

MoClaw uses its built-in web tools to search arXiv's API and listings for papers matching your specified topics and categories. It then reads each paper's abstract and available content, generates a concise summary, adds a 'why it matters' analysis based on your research context, and identifies cross-paper trends. The entire process runs automatically on your chosen schedule.

Absolutely. You can specify any combination of arXiv categories (cs.AI, cs.MA, cs.CL, etc.), keywords, author names, or even specific research questions. You can also set how many papers you want per digest, what analysis format you prefer, and whether to include trend summaries. Just describe what you want in plain English and MoClaw adapts.

Your digest is delivered directly in your MoClaw chat with rich formatting, bold titles, venue badges, direct arXiv links, and structured summaries. You can also export digests as Markdown files for your notes app, CSV files for tracking in spreadsheets, or copy-paste the content into Notion, Obsidian, or any other tool you use.

You can set any schedule that works for you, daily, twice daily, weekly, or even weekdays only. Most researchers prefer a daily morning digest to start their day, but you can also trigger a manual check anytime by asking MoClaw in chat. ArXiv typically posts new papers Sunday through Thursday evenings, so a weekday morning schedule catches everything.

Yes! While arXiv is the most common source for AI research, MoClaw can also monitor Semantic Scholar, Google Scholar, OpenReview, conference proceedings pages, research lab blogs (like Google DeepMind, Meta FAIR, OpenAI), and even Twitter/X for paper discussions. Just tell MoClaw which sources you want included in your digest.

Google Scholar alerts and arXiv notifications send you raw paper titles with no context, analysis, or prioritization. MoClaw reads each paper, writes a custom summary explaining what the paper does and why it matters to your specific interests, ranks papers by relevance, identifies weekly trends, and flags venue acceptances. It turns a firehose of papers into an actionable, prioritized briefing.

MoClaw offers a free tier that includes scheduled tasks and web browsing, so you can set up a daily research digest at no cost. The free tier supports daily schedules and standard digest formats. Premium tiers offer higher frequency checks, longer paper analysis, multi-source monitoring, and priority processing for large-scale literature reviews.

Definitely. Many researchers combine their arXiv digest with other MoClaw workflows, for example, tracking GitHub repos for new agent frameworks, monitoring Hacker News for AI discussions, setting up price alerts for GPU cloud instances, or even drafting weekly lab meeting summaries based on the papers flagged in your digest. Each automation runs independently on its own schedule.
