Your account

An online account keeps your searches, analyses, reviews, saved keys, and credits together. The Community edition you install yourself does not need a PaperSeek account.

Create an account

1. Click Not signed in at the bottom of the sidebar, then Create account.
2. Enter your email address and send the verification code.
3. Enter the six-digit code from the email.
4. Set and confirm a password.

Use at least eight characters, and follow any further requirements the form shows.

Sign in

Sign in with your email and password, with a one-time email code, or with GitHub, Hugging Face, or ModelScope when they are offered. Signing in with a provider only signs you in to PaperSeek; it does not let PaperSeek use that provider's models.

If you use more than one sign-in method, check the email and account ID in Settings › User before continuing. Two different email addresses do not share history.

Settings › User

Open it from the account menu (Account & credits) or from Settings.

• Account shows your email and account ID. The ID is masked; use Show or Copy when contacting support. It is not an API key.
• Credits shows today's remaining credits, the refill time, and what each task uses. See Service & credits.
• Sign-in methods links or unlinks GitHub, Hugging Face, and ModelScope, and sets a password for an account created without one. Unlinking keeps your history.
• Data management:
  • Clear keys deletes every model connection and data-source key saved to your account. Type clear saved keys to confirm. Submitted tasks are not affected.
  • Clear history deletes all searches, analyses, and reviews with their exported files; type clear to confirm. Running tasks are stopped first. Credit records are kept. This cannot be undone.

Signing out does not stop tasks that are already running.

Email or password problems

• Check spam and the spelling of your email address.
• Use the most recent code; requesting a new code can replace the earlier one.
• If you forgot your password, choose Email code in the sign-in dialog. Signing in with a code does not change your password.
• If saving the password fails, note the error and the time and try again. Never send your password or verification code to anyone, including support.

A temporary error during registration is no reason to create several accounts. See Troubleshooting.
