Why use AutoLatex
AutoLatex is a browser extension that simplifies LaTeX equation generation for researchers and students. It uses LLMs to convert natural language and images into markdown and LaTeX, with instant rendering so you can edit on the spot. The tool offers customizable settings, keyboard shortcuts, and privacy control through user-managed API keys. By streamlining the process of incorporating complex equations into documents, AutoLatex enhances productivity in academic and research workflows, especially in deep learning fields.
You can also use it just as an LLM companion in the sidebar by switching off the latex renderer.
