Scholarcy breaks long academic articles, reports and book chapters into short summary flashcards that show key points, findings and references. It is designed to help you decide quickly what is worth reading in full.
Users import papers in various file formats, read the summaries, highlight and edit text, take notes and organise flashcards into collections. Paid users can create a literature matrix comparing many papers and generate bibliographies in one click.
The free Article Summarizer allows up to 10 summaries. Paid monthly and yearly plans unlock unlimited summaries and the advanced features, with a one-week free trial; the yearly plan is advertised as 25% cheaper. Exact paid prices were not shown on the pricing page when we checked.
Useful for MPhil and PhD students, but summaries are a starting point, not a replacement for reading key papers.
