Show HN: I built Goodreads for academic papers to help my wife survive her PhD

My wife recently started her PhD and while she uses Zotero as a citation manager, she was really missing a tool for keeping track of what she's reading right now/has already read/needs to read next. This overwhelming experience might be familiar to other researchers working on a niche field where every paper is called pretty much the same thing

So I built her Paperstack. It's basically Goodreads, but for research papers:

- Save articles to familiar To Read/Reading/Read stacks - Tag articles with logical projects/chapters/whatever your system is - Get AI-generated summaries so you can quickly decide if a paper is worth your time

I would love feedback from any students and researchers managing paper overwhelm!
