You might also check our related tools: mad-research (https://lnkd.in/dtGSi8zP), which stress-tests your paper or proposal with a Claude/Codex debate, and paper-workshop (https://lnkd.in/dk5NQpcE), which simulates an expert workshop on your stuff.
If you have any comments or feedback, we'll be happy to incorporate them into the tools.
