Open discovery first
Search, topics, metadata, source links, citations, and paper context stay easy to reach so scientific exploration can start without friction.
About Institium
Science, readable in every language.
Institium is a research workspace for finding scientific papers, understanding source context, reading PDFs, translating scientific work, and preserving the structure that makes technical literature usable.
Discovery
Papers, datasets, topics
One entry point for the research graph.
Reading
PDF-native workflow
Source PDFs, citations, notes, and translation in context.
Translation
Multilingual science
Titles, abstracts, page overlays, and whole PDF translation.
Mission
Make research searchable, readable, and useful beyond language borders.
A large share of valuable scientific and technical work is difficult to find because it is written in national languages, hidden behind inconsistent metadata, or locked inside dense PDF layouts. Institium is built to connect discovery with reading and translation so researchers can move from a question to a usable paper without losing scientific structure.
Translation as research infrastructure
Translation is treated as a serious scholarly workflow: page structure, formulas, figures, citations, and saved versions matter.
Designed for individuals and teams
Personal libraries, annotations, team licenses, usage accounting, and administrative boundaries are built into the same workspace.
Platform
What Institium brings together
Institium is a research workspace for finding scientific papers, understanding source context, reading PDFs, translating scientific work, and preserving the structure that makes technical literature usable.
Native-language search
Enter a concept in your own language and expand discovery across global scientific literature.
Scientific paper translation
Translate titles, abstracts, PDF overlays, and complete source PDFs for reading or print.
Citation and graph context
See cited works, citing works, and graph neighborhoods directly from a paper record.
Annotation workflow
Mark the original PDF and translated paper view, keep notes per page, and return to them later.
Stewardship
Built as durable research infrastructure.
Institium is designed to grow from a research archive into a professional academic network: careful about source access, billing clarity, team governance, and long-term access to saved research work.
Research work stays centered on papers, source context, access, and reusable scholarly notes.
Paid translation workflows are connected to transparent credit accounting.
Team controls separate ownership, billing authority, administration, and researcher access.
Saved papers, metadata, translations, notes, and graph context are treated as durable research assets.
