Logically.app (formerly Afforai)

Juggling a reference manager, a PDF reader, a note app and a chatbot is a common tax on anyone writing a paper.

Logically.app, formerly Afforai, puts those jobs in one workspace.

It is an AI research assistant that helps you manage references, run literature reviews, annotate files, take notes and write papers.

The product draws on ideas from Zotero, Mendeley, ChatGPT and Adobe Acrobat.

Inside your documents, Logically.app can summarize them, translate them and answer questions about their contents, which is where its chatbot and AI summarizer side shows up.

It also works as a document extraction tool for pulling information out of the files you upload.

The makers claim 5x better quality and 10x more coverage than other AI chatbots.

See that as a marketing claim and test it on your own sources.

The appeal is mainly consolidation: students and researchers who want reading, citing and drafting in one spot.
