Murfy
Freemium
Murfy is an online LaTeX editor for research teams, combining real-time collaboration with AI assistance for academic writing, compilation, and paper review. It supports unlimited collaborators and provides a browser-based workflow for creating, reviewing, and compiling LaTeX projects.
O que é Murfy?
Murfy is an AI-native, browser-based LaTeX editor for academic writing and research collaboration. It lets teams create and compile LaTeX projects, edit together in real time, and use AI assistance within the writing workflow rather than switching to a separate tool.
The editor combines collaboration features such as unlimited collaborators, comments, and track changes with academic-writing support for grammar, phrasing, and style. Murfy also includes an AI paper-review workflow that places critiques against relevant paragraphs and presents proposed fixes as diffs inside the editor.
For teams moving from Overleaf, Murfy provides ZIP import for existing projects and preserves the imported folder structure, .tex files, bibliography, and assets according to its comparison page. Its template library includes conference and journal formats that can be opened directly in Murfy.
O que Murfy pode fazer?
AI assistance for academic writing
The built-in writing assistant provides grammar, phrasing, and academic-style suggestions while accounting for LaTeX commands, equations, and citations.
In-editor AI paper review
Submit a draft for review and receive critiques attached to the paragraphs they concern. Suggested fixes are delivered as diffs so authors can accept or discard them.
LaTeX compilation and project history
Murfy compiles LaTeX projects in the editor and provides version history. The Starter plan includes 24-hour history, while Pro and Enterprise plans include full version history.
Overleaf ZIP import
Users can export an Overleaf project as a ZIP and import it into Murfy. The documented workflow preserves the project folder structure, `.tex` files, bibliography, and assets.
Conference and journal templates
The template library includes ready-to-use formats for venues such as NeurIPS, ICML, IEEE, ACL, and other conferences and journals, with templates available directly in Murfy.
Casos de uso
“Co-authoring a research paper”
A research group can keep its manuscript, bibliography, figures, comments, and tracked edits in one shared LaTeX project while co-authors work simultaneously.
“Checking a draft before submission”
Authors can run a paper through Murfy's review workflow to identify weaknesses in claims or presentation, inspect paragraph-level critiques, and decide which suggested diffs to apply before submitting.
“Moving an existing Overleaf project”
A team can export its current Overleaf source as a ZIP, import it into Murfy, verify the retained files and structure, and continue writing with its collaborators.
“Starting from a venue template”
Researchers preparing a conference or journal submission can select a supported template and open it in Murfy instead of setting up the project structure manually.
