Moving from Overleaf
Bring your Overleaf project to scime draft in one step.
scime draft is a free LaTeX workspace for machine learning papers: write with your co-authors, check what reviewers will check before you submit, and answer the reviews, with AI included. Your Overleaf source ZIP imports unchanged.
Drop your Overleaf ZIP, no sign-up
In Overleaf: Menu → Download → Source. The quick check reads the source for venue rules, anonymity leaks, missing figures and labels, cite keys missing from your .bib, and typos, in memory and without storing it. Sign up and the ZIP is imported as a project right away.

Questions
Is scime draft free?
Yes. The editor, collaboration, compiling, the submission check and AI are free right now. If paid plans are ever added, we will say so clearly in advance.
Will my paper compile the same way?
Most papers compile unchanged. If a package or font is missing, the compile log says which one, and Fix with AI next to the error can help.
Is my manuscript used to train AI?
No. scime does not train AI models on your manuscripts. With your own API key, your provider's data terms apply.
Can I go back to Overleaf?
Yes. Download the project as a ZIP from scime draft and upload it to Overleaf (New project → Upload project).
Is scime draft affiliated with Overleaf?
No. scime draft is made by Latentic Labs and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Overleaf.
