Frequently asked questions

What do I get with Pro for $19/mo?

Unlimited full summaries (one-liner + key contributions + 'why it matters' analysis) for every arXiv paper, no daily or weekly caps. Free users get 2 summaries per day and 5 per week.

How do I cancel?

From your account menu, click 'Manage Subscription' to open the Stripe billing portal. You can cancel anytime and keep Pro access until the end of your current billing period.

Can I sign in without a Google account?

Yes. ArXiv TLDR supports both email/password sign-up and Google OAuth. Your subscription is tied to your email regardless of how you sign in.

Where do the summaries come from?

Every TL;DR is generated by a state-of-the-art LLM from the paper's title and abstract on arXiv. We cache summaries so the same paper doesn't get re-summarized.
