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.
Document API changes automatically and ship accurate release notes
Register your API environments and the platform monitors them for changes, so nothing is missed between releases.
Output follows the OpenRelease standard, giving every release a consistent, reviewable structure instead of an ad-hoc bullet list.
Publish as HTML or email, or export structured JSON, YAML and PDF on higher tiers for downstream tooling.
Push notes to Slack, Dropbox, S3 or a wiki, or send them by email, reaching engineers, PMs and customers from one source.
