Knowledge layer that gives your AI the context it lacks
Save highlights and insights from webpages, PDFs, videos, social posts, newsletters, Kindle, and email using a browser extension or mobile capture.
Let AI suggest structure, group related insights, and use knowledge triggers and chat to keep your base tidy and searchable.
Feed your stored knowledge to any frontier model or custom agent via an AI Canvas and native MCP, so your context travels with you.
Build a common context space that both people and AI agents draw on for research, feedback, and collaboration.

AI academic search engine for peer-reviewed science
Ask a research question in plain language and get answers synthesized from peer-reviewed studies, with each claim linked to its source paper.
A visual summary shows how the scientific literature leans on a yes/no question, indicating agreement, disagreement or mixed evidence.
Narrow results by study design, sample size, journal quality, publication year and more to prioritize high-quality evidence.
Aggregate findings across many studies into structured summaries that map what is known and where the gaps are.
