LitraMind uses artificial intelligence to assist with drafting, rewriting, summarizing, paraphrasing, citation discovery, translation, and other academic writing tasks. AI-generated content is intended to support your work—not replace your professional judgment.

• Ensure compliance with your institution's AI policies.
• Use LitraMind as an academic assistant—not an author.
