Reify is an AI-native LaTeX editor that removes the pain of technical writing. It auto-fixes compile errors, generates full project templates, and lets you add tables, figures, math, and citations using natural language. Upload images or notes and Reify converts them into clean LaTeX. A faster, smarter workflow for students, researchers, and engineers who want LaTeX without the friction.
Hey Product Hunt I’m Hans, 19, and I built Reify because I was tired of losing hours to LaTeX errors instead of actually writing.
The idea came after a Saturday in the library where I spent the whole day fighting a lab report and did almost no original thinking. I wanted an editor that feels alive; one that understands the project, fixes issues automatically, and lets me focus on ideas, not syntax.
Reify is an AI-native LaTeX editor I built from scratch:
Project-aware assistant that can see your whole project, create files, refactor sections, and help with structure, not just single lines.
Auto-fix compile errors: when a build fails, the assistant opens right in the PDF tab, gets the error log, and works through the fixes.
Smart project wizard: describe what you’re writing (paper, thesis, CV, etc.) and what you need (figures, tables, bibliography, style), and it scaffolds a ready-to-write project for you.
Under the hood, Reify has native git-style history, cloud projects, and a custom compilation pipeline tuned for speed. It’s early and not perfect, but I’m shipping fast.
My goal with this launch is simple: make technical writing feel effortless for students, researchers, and engineers.
I’d love your feedback: what would Reify need to do for you to actually switch from your current LaTeX setup?
