Why students love Scholarly notes

Stop wrestling with formatting. Let AI handle the hard parts.

Built-in tools

Everything you need to take better notes

All the tools to write, format, and organize your notes

How it works

From blank page to polished notes

Start writing in three simple steps — the editor does the heavy lifting.

  1. 01

    Start a page

    Open a new page and just start typing. No setup, no formatting menus to learn first.

  2. 02

    Let AI help

    Accept autocomplete suggestions, select text for AI editing, or press Cmd+J to ask for a hand.

  3. 03

    Study & export

    Add flashcards inline, organize into folders, then export to PDF, Markdown, or Word on a paid plan — or share with a free link.

The bigger picture

Notes should make studying easier, not harder

Most note apps stop at capturing text. Scholarly notes are built for studying — every page connects to flashcards, AI chat, and your other materials, so the notes you write become the material you revise.

The AI editor removes the busywork. Autocomplete finishes your sentences, AI Edit reshapes a paragraph or table on demand, and Cmd+J answers questions without leaving the page. You spend your time understanding the material, not formatting it.

When it is time to revise, your notes are already study-ready: drop in flashcards, organize pages into folders alongside your PDFs and AI Meeting Notes, and export clean documents on a paid plan to share or submit. One workspace, from first draft to exam day.
