Every source, searchable to the sentence.

Save papers, articles, recordings and passages as you read. Teak reads the text inside them, so you can find a source by the line you remember.

From source to draft

  • PDFs you can search

    Teak reads the text of PDFs, Word and PowerPoint files when you save them, and the first pages of scanned PDFs, so search finds a document by a sentence in it.

  • Transcripts of what was said

    Teak transcribes the voice memos and videos you save, and many podcast episodes you link to, so search finds a phrase someone said.

  • Notes that link

    Type [[ in a note to link another card. Open any card to see the notes that link to it.

  • Quotes that keep their source

    Text you save from a page with the browser extension keeps the page it came from, and a quotation with who said it becomes a quote card.

  • Read, then mark it done

    Mark articles, books and papers as read when you finish them. Search is:todo to see what's left on your list.

  • Write in focus

    Press ⌘E to write in one quiet column with a word count. An existing note saves on its own as you type.

Questions, answered

Can Teak search inside my PDFs?

Yes. Teak reads the text of PDFs when you save them, so search finds a document by a sentence in it. A scanned PDF without a text layer is read too, from its first 3 pages.

Can I search what was said in a recording?

Yes. Teak transcribes the audio and video you save, so search finds a phrase someone said. A podcast episode whose page links to its audio gets a transcript too.

Can I take my research with me?

Yes. Export everything, with original files, as a ZIP at any time. You can also import your browser bookmarks or a Teak archive.
