Snip Chrome Extension
The Mathpix Snip Chrome extension makes it possible to upload a PDF in your browser to your PDF collection in Snip instantly. It makes it easy to create a searchable, exportable collection of PDFs from arxiv.org and other online resources. Once in Snip, you can search and read your PDFs on any device, with the ability to export your documents to DOCX, HTML, LaTeX, and Markdown. You can also extract text from your PDFs and create research summaries via our Mathpix Markdown document editor in Snip.
The extension has special features for arxiv.org, including automatic naming of your PDF files, metadata extraction, and duplication detection to prevent adding the same PDF to your collection twice.
Your PDFs sync instantly across all of your devices so that you can add documents using the Chrome extension on the web and continue reading and editing on mobile or tablet.
