Handwritten notes, PDF markup, and AI study tools on one canvas
Low-latency ink with palm rejection, cross-out to erase, and handwriting-to-text conversion keeps writing close to pen on paper.
Import contracts, papers, or textbooks and mark them up by hand, with searchable annotations and clean exports.
Search across typed text, handwriting, and sketches, and turn notes into summaries, mind maps, or structured plans.
Work together in shared notebooks, documents, and whiteboards simultaneously, without version conflicts or file ping-pong.
Publication-ready scientific figures from text, sketches, or PDFs
Generate from text descriptions, hand sketches, reference figures, research PDFs, or lab photos.
Labels, arrows, shapes, and colours stay editable, and single regions can be regenerated with a prompt.
Match the visual conventions of Nature, Cell, or IEEE with one-click styles, or keep a consistent set across a paper.
Export SVG and PDF for submissions plus 300 dpi PNG, so figures drop into templates without rework.
