About
Feynman is a mobile app that summarizes research papers into 60-word cards and lets you scroll through them in a social-feed style to explore what’s new. www.feynman.wtf
Impact
Feynman saves researchers hours, turns brainrot scrolling into productive discovery, and makes science accessible while spreading knowledge faster worldwide.
Progress
We’ve built and launched Feynman with key features: swipe to discover research papers, chat with AI, bookmark and save for later, and explore by category. The app is fully live on the App Store and currently awaiting review on Google Play Store.
Team
I’m a researcher and builder who knows the pain of endless papers. Having built AI products and consumer apps, I bring the domain insight and execution needed to create and scale Feynman for the community.

Season totals as displayed on the platform's public accounting — not a statement of amounts paid out. V2 = Venus sales + Venus extras. The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
