Paper2Starup

Thousands of research papers are published every day, but most never reach the real world because researchers lack the tools to turn theory into business. Our project, AI Research-to-Startup Generator, bridges this gap. Using GPT-5, the app takes any research paper (PDF or text) and converts it into a clear plain-language summary, identifies practical startup use cases, generates a draft pitch deck outline, and proposes monetization strategies. Designed with a simple Gradio-based UI, it enables students, researchers, and innovators to instantly explore the entrepreneurial potential of their ideas. Scalable across industries, this tool has strong appeal for universities, innovation hubs, and investors.
