VigyaanSetu

Support VigyaanSetu — Making Research Understandable for Everyone Scientific knowledge is growing faster than ever, but understanding research papers remains difficult, time-consuming, and inaccessible for many students, educators, and early-stage researchers. Complex mathematics, dense language, and lack of intuitive explanations often create a barrier between knowledge and learning. VigyaanSetu is an open, research-driven initiative aimed at solving this problem. VigyaanSetu is being built as an open-source, multimodal research environment that helps users: Read and understand research papers interactively Explain mathematical equations in plain language Chat semantically with papers instead of skimming PDFs Convert research papers into clear, narrated explainer videos Preserve academic integrity through transparent, verifiable outputs The goal is not to replace researchers, but to act as a research co-pilot that accelerates understanding, learning, and dissemination of scientific ideas. 🎯 Why Support This Project? This project is: Fully open-source (no proprietary lock-in) Built using freely available models and tools Designed with academic ethics, reproducibility, and transparency in mind Focused on education, accessibility, and research productivity Your support directly helps with: Cloud compute for testing models (summarization, math reasoning, video generation) Dataset preparation and benchmarking Improving mathematical visualization and video quality Maintaining documentation, demos, and reproducible pipelines 💰 Funding Goal: $500 USD The initial funding target of $500 will be used strictly for: Temporary GPU / Colab compute for model testing Video generation experiments (visuals + narration) Hosting demo artifacts and documentation Ensuring the project remains free and open for everyone No funds are used for salaries or closed development. 🌍 Impact By supporting VigyaanSetu, you are contributing to: More accessible scientific education Faster research comprehension Ethical and transparent AI for academia Tools that benefit students, educators, and independent researchers worldwide Even small contributions help move the project forward. 🤝 Thank You If you believe research should be understandable, visual, and accessible, your support makes a real difference. Every contribution brings VigyaanSetu closer to becoming a public, open research companion for the global academic community.
