How CastReader Works with ResearchGate
Built for academic reading and discussion catch-up
Abstract First
🔊 Paper Abstracts Read in 30 Seconds
ResearchGate surfaces the abstract prominently on every paper page. CastReader reads it first so you can triage — then continues into the intro section if you want more, or the discussion Q&A below.
Reads Count Skipped
No 'Reads: 47 · Citations: 12'
ResearchGate metadata — read counts, citation counts, RG Score, 'Who read this?' lists — is visible on every paper but useless as audio. CastReader skips it and reads only the paper content.
Q&A Discussions
Author Q&A Threads Read in Order
ResearchGate uniquely lets readers ask questions under papers, and authors often reply. These Q&A threads are some of the best content on the site. CastReader reads questions and answers in order, similar to how it handles Stack Overflow.
Request Full-Text Skipped
Chrome Stays Silent
'Request full-text' buttons, 'Invite this researcher' prompts, ad panels — all skipped automatically. Your paper feed becomes a commute briefing instead of a UI clutter parade.
