The AI reader that helps busy people actually finish more books
Ask for a plain-language explanation of dense or confusing passages without leaving the book you are reading.
Bring your own library — ebooks, PDF documents and web articles are all supported formats.
Instant translations, pronunciations and definitions in more than 118 languages turn real books into study material.
The app learns when you are most likely to read and prompts you at that time instead of on a fixed schedule.
A free, AI-powered academic search engine for 240M+ papers across every scientific field
Search 241 million-plus publications from every scientific field using natural-language queries that match meaning rather than exact keywords.
Each indexed paper gets a one-sentence machine-generated TLDR so you can triage results before committing to reading the full text.
An augmented PDF reader that highlights citations, definitions, equations and figures inline, and shows which later papers cited the passage you are reading.
See how a paper was cited, whether citations were influential, and which references shaped the work — useful for literature reviews and citation chasing.
