For grad students
A dissertation's library, kept in one piece
From comps reading lists to the defense, a graduate degree is one long act of collection. Keep every paper, chapter scan, and seminar video in a library that's searchable by concept, marked up with your own thinking, and ready to cite when the writing finally starts.
How it plays out
- Bring in the comps list — PDFs, chapter scans, and the videos your advisor keeps sending
- Search by concept when a seminar discussion sparks a half-memory
- Build the literature review as notes and links, not a graveyard of highlights
- Write chapters with citations pinned to the exact passages they rest on
- Export everything, any time — the library follows you past graduation
