EYEWEE™

You say it — eyewee carries it, guides it, and cracks the toughest problems.

For the postdoc carrying someone else’s unsolved dream project — alone, in a new country, with no time left over.

the 200-paper wall

Working alone isn’t rigor. It’s just noise.

eyewee brings together the guidance, the connections, and the sparks of insight a postdoc needs to crack the project, find the way through, and stop carrying it alone.

PREVIEW · LEVERAGE

Your PI handed you the hard problem. eyewee helps you crack it.

200 papers deep, one clear next step. eyewee checks the places a literature search misses — sequence databases, not just journals — so you know within minutes whether your angle is actually new.

Illustrative example — eyewee’s live conversation isn’t open yet.

I think I found a mutation in the HBV X gene that might explain why some patients don’t respond to therapy, but I can’t tell if anyone’s already reported this exact variant. I’ve read like 40 papers and I’m losing track.
EYEWEE
Let’s check three places, not just papers — a variant can sit deposited in a sequence database with zero papers ever written about it. Checking PubMed, GenBank, and EMBL now.
HBV X gene variant — search results
PUBMED
0 papers link this exact variant to treatment response
GENBANK
3 sequences deposited with this variant — none linked to a functional study
EMBL
Same 3 records — EMBL mirrors GenBank daily via the INSDC sync, so this confirms rather than adds
EYEWEE
So the mutation itself isn’t new — it’s been sequenced before. But nobody has connected it to treatment response. That gap is yours.
✦Novelty confirmed — this angle is unclaimed
My HBV conference talk is in 3 days and my daughter just got sick. I have zero time to rehearse. Can you make me a deck on my cccDNA findings?
EYEWEE
That’s a lot to be carrying into a conference. I’ve got it — building this now. You’ll get three versions automatically: a Main Presentation that’s clean and podium-ready, a Rehearsal Presentation with a scripted line on every slide — so if you blank out backstage, you have something to say instantly — and a Layman’s Presentation for anyone outside your field. No rehearsal required.
Main Presentation
3 slides · podium-ready, clean
PREVIEW
Rehearsal Presentation
3 slides · with reversal lines
PREVIEW
Layman's Presentation
3 slides · plain language
PREVIEW
✦All three ready — pick whichever you need, or grab them all
PREVIEW · LEVERAGE

Walk in ready — even with zero rehearsal time.

A stressed, unrehearsed postdoc should still be able to present with confidence. Every deck request comes back as three ready-to-use versions — automatically, not as an extra step.

Illustrative example — eyewee’s live conversation isn’t open yet.

Turns stuck into spark.

eyewee doesn’t just watch.
It sees.

My parents land in Chicago the same week as my grant deadline. I can’t get to O’Hare myself that day.
EYEWEE
Checking who else has a pickup near that date. Matched you with a connection also meeting someone at O’Hare on the 18th — same high-scrutiny safety check applies before any contact details are shared.
Travel Companion match
Arrival: O’Hare (ORD) — Dec 18
Matched with: Postdoc, same metro, pickup same day
Coordinating: pickup date and time
✦Trip matched — both earn a badge once it’s completed together
PREVIEW · DOC2POSTDOC

Someone at the gate, even when you can’t be.

When your parents are flying in and a deadline won’t let you leave the lab, Travel Companion matches you with someone else already headed to the same airport — the same safety layer as every other Doc2Postdoc connection, and a badge for both of you once the trip is done.

Illustrative example — Doc2Postdoc matching isn’t open yet.

PREVIEW · NAVIGATE

Real questions, from a real community.

Not hypotheticals — this is what shows up in a postdoc group chat every week, and how eyewee actually answers.

“Is anyone currently staying at Maple Pine? I need info on the management before I sign.”

EYEWEE CONNECTS YOU
Found a postdoc already living there, opted in to intros — matched through Doc2Postdoc, not a guess.

“Is anyone here on a J1/J2 visa? I’d love to know their real experience.”

EYEWEE CONNECTS YOU
This is better answered by someone who’s lived it than a policy page — matched with postdocs on J1 status willing to share.

“How do I change my address with USCIS while my green card is processing?”

EYEWEE ANSWERS DIRECTLY
The E-COA tool in your USCIS online account updates every pending case at once. Form AR-11 by mail is the fallback — both within 10 days of moving.

Illustrative examples — eyewee’s live conversation isn’t open yet.
