## What it is
Dr. Claw is an open-source, model-agnostic AI research assistant that provides a desktop and mobile UI for Claude Code, Cursor CLI, Codex, and OpenRouter models. It orchestrates a multi-agent pipeline covering the full research lifecycle: literature survey, ideation, experiments, paper writing, and presentation generation.

## Use cases
- automate literature reviews with citations from arXiv and Semantic Scholar
- generate research ideas with multi-persona evaluation
- run AI-assisted experiments and statistical analysis
- draft academic papers in IEEE/ACM format with LaTeX
- create slides, narration, and demo videos for research promotion
- use Claude Code and Codex from a desktop or mobile UI

## When to choose
- you want an end-to-end AI research pipeline from idea to publication
- you need a free, open-source alternative to Claude Science
- you want model-agnostic access to Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, or OpenRouter models
- you want research artifacts like survey reports, paper drafts, and slides generated automatically

## When to avoid
- you need a simple chatbot without research workflow structure
- you require a permissively licensed library for embedding in proprietary software (it is GPL/AGPL dual-licensed)
- you need guaranteed peer-reviewed accuracy from AI-generated papers
- you prefer fully managed cloud services rather than running agents locally
