The shelves

Pages

Real sketchnotes from arXiv papers and technical notes — with a biology page in the mix. Yours can be lecture notes, a PDF, or anything you're learning.

The flow

How it works

From dense notes to a page you'll actually reopen — without another endless scroll.

  1. Bring any source

    Paste lecture notes, an AI answer, a PDF, or an arXiv link — Papyr meets you where the material already is.

  2. Get a page you’ll keep

    Generate an AI sketchnote or an editable structured page. Long docs become multi-page explain books in Workshop.

  3. Revisit and bind

    Save to your library, organize notebooks, and bind pages into a book when you want a polished study artifact.

Before you ask

Questions

What is Papyr?

Papyr turns notes, PDFs, arXiv papers, and AI answers into sketchnotes and editable explain pages you can keep and bind into a book.

Can I turn a PDF or arXiv paper into study notes?

Yes. Import a PDF or paste an arXiv URL. Papyr can produce sketchnotes or a multi-page explain book that walks the document section by section.

Do I need my own OpenAI API key?

Free includes 5 editable structured pages per month — sign in to generate. New accounts get 2 free Papyr credits.

Who is it for?

Anyone learning — school, research, work, or curiosity. No age gate.
