The earliest known citation appeared in 2017. In that paper, published in Virologica Sinica, Editor Dongbo Nie and colleagues described Stork as "a practical tool that significantly improves the work quality and efficiency for journal editors. "

As Stork added more features, more researchers started using it in their work and began citing it in their publications. Nearly 70% of the citations appeared in 2024–2025, which shows how rapidly Stork's adoption has picked up. The papers come from seven countries and more than 30 universities and research institutes—about 80% from Chinese teams, with the rest from the United States, Malaysia, Australia, Japan, Russia, and Turkey.

Most of these studies were published in mainstream SCI and SSCI journals, and a number of them even appeared in high-impact venues (IF ≥ 10) such as Science Bulletin and Advanced Functional Materials.

Among the papers that cite Stork, about one-third come from medical and health-related fields such as nursing, dentistry, biomedical science, and radiation protection. Around one-fifth come from life sciences and agriculture, including plant science, ecology, and agronomy. The rest cover a wide range of areas—materials science, physics, engineering, environmental science, as well as psychology and the social sciences.

We warmly welcome researchers from even more fields to explore Stork's tools and let them support your work and publications.

In these papers, the most frequently mentioned one is the Writing Assistant:

It can help you with text polishing, grammar correction, and paragraph expansion, while also offering a Word Add-in for a smoother writing experience.

Another commonly cited set of tools includes Big Analysis and Citation Network:

Big Analysis allows a researcher to quickly understand all aspects of a field's progress in a matter of minutes, including growth trends, geographic distribution, experts (and their contact information), genes, diseases, brain regions, etc.

Citation Network allows researchers to quickly identify the classic/important papers in a field within a few minutes and do more research with less effort.

Stork's AI Paper is also becoming a popular advanced feature, offering structured draft to help researchers begin their writing process more easily.

Every citation is a reminder that Stork has been part of real research stories. And more are coming. Stork will stay by researchers' side—helping make the path from idea to publication a little smoother.

Studies show that mind maps help people organize ideas, make sense of complex information, and reduce mental effort. Many researchers also like to draw mind maps when reading papers.

But creating a mind map by hand takes a lot of time. You read the paper, mark the key ideas, reorganize everything, and then draw the structure from scratch. Sometimes it even feels tougher than reading the paper.

Now, ChatPaper can take over this step for you. With the new update, it automatically creates a mind map for any paper you upload. No extra tools, no manual drawing—the paper's logic just shows up right in your reading view.

You can still ask questions, translate sentences, and let ChatPaper explain terms as usual.

When you want the mind map, just click the Mind Map icon in the top right corner. ChatPaper will extract the structure of the paper—background, research questions, methods, key findings, and conclusions—and turn it into a clean, compact mind map.

You can expand or collapse each level by clicking the "+" or "–" icons.

The map is not only a quick summary—it can also be the starting point for your own notes.

• Edit text: double-click a node

• Add a sibling node: select a node → press Enter

• Add a child node or note: select a node → Ctrl + Enter

• Delete a node: select the node → Delete

Mind maps turn paper reading from a slow, heavy task into something clearer and more enjoyable. And you can put your focus where it really matters.

Give the new ChatPaper mind map feature a try!

There are moments in academic writing when you're just staring at a blank page, not sure where to begin. You can type in your paper title, and AI Paper will search real scientific literature and build you a high-quality draft.

Other times, you've already read a pile of papers but aren't sure how to turn them into a clear, coherent paper. To meet this need, this latest update allows you to upload your own reference list, either in .ris or .nbib format. AI Paper will write based on your chosen papers — keeping the draft closer to your research.

Step2: Enter your title and any other relevant materials. Under References, click [Upload RIS/nbib] and start writing.

Step3: Choose your file and upload it.

• .ris —— common to EndNote, Zotero, Mendeley, and other reference managers

• .nbib —— standard format exported from PubMed

Currently, AI Paper reads up to 100 references per uploaded file. 

Once uploaded, your paper will be written using those literatures, and each reference will appear on the right side of the screen.

While using Stork, you might often find papers you want to save or organize in your own reference manager. Whether you use EndNote, Zotero, or NoteExpress, exporting papers in RIS format is the most reliable way to do it.

The RIS format is a universal standard for reference data and compatible with almost every reference manager worldwide.

Now, you can export RIS files with just one click across Stork's many tools.

You can also export past papers under My Keywords.

True Cite includes three features:

① You Write I Cite: find references matching your text

② Citation Verification: verify references accuracy

③ Fill References: parse reference lists in various formats and fill in missing information

All support RIS export.

Big Analysis collects and analyzes papers based on your keywords, showing growth trends, geographic distribution, experts (and their contact information), genes, diseases, brain regions, etc. 

All related papers can be exported as RIS files for easy reference management.

Academic writing often feels like a quiet battle: There’s always something to write — an introduction, a discussion, an abstract, a short paper, or that never-ending proposal — but somehow, the first step is always the hardest.

That’s why AI Paper exists.
It’s already helped many of us get started: giving structure to introductions, offering outlines for discussions, and even helping design a clear framework for full paper.

But real research writing is rarely that neat.
Sometimes you just need a rough draft of a research plan.

Sometimes you want to write a review or a meta-analysis.
Sometimes you’re working on a grant proposal that doesn’t fit any existing template.

Now, you finally have a place for all of that — “Other”

Just tell AI Paper what you need to write, and let it do the heavy lifting.

No more clicking through fixed categories like Introduction or Methods — you decide where to begin.

For example, if you’re writing an NIH R01 proposal, you can paste the title and requirements directly, hit Start Writing, and watch AI Paper draft a well-organized, citation-rich text.

And if you want to bring in your own research background, you can upload supporting materials through Add supporting documents, so that the writing fits your project more closely.

When writing a review, you can be as specific as this:

Research writing doesn’t always start with a perfect outline — sometimes it just starts with an idea. Now you can turn that idea into words, directly.

Open AI Paper, click on “Other,”
and see what it can write with you, not for you.
