Binaries now available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Development is underway for a web-based version, with P2P collaborative editing!

Before using Intrigue, you might consider using Snowball to find and screen relavant literature🔎

What is this?

Intrigue lets you quickly organize the papers you read alongside your thoughts in a visual & clean manner. Check out the web demo, which also serves as a tutorial.

Features include:

  • (v1.0+) Offline-first distributed collaborative editing. Create on Desktop, share to web. No central server, you keep and distribute your own data.
  • (v1.0+) Zotero Quick Copy translator allows you to copy an item in Zotero, and paste it in a new Intrigue note to create a Reference. Upon double-clicking, it will lead you back to the item in Zotero. You can download the translator here.
  • Automatically pull metadata of papers (using DOI), books (using ISBN), BibTeX, and web links using Citation.js.
  • Double clicking reference nodes takes you to a PDF at you-know-where.
  • Full WYSIWYG markdown support in the notes, powered by TipTap.
  • Everything can be grouped, snapped, and connected.
  • COMING SOON: Import BibTeX files exported from a literature search or other tools like Zotero.
  • COMING SOON: Export papers into a BibTeX to directly use in your paper-writing process.

Here's a screenshot of my work-in-progress research canvas: A screenshot of the app.

How to use?

It's simple!

  • Create notes: Double click to create a note.
    • Enter an DOI, ISBN, or URL into a note to have it automatically turned into a "reference note" (blue).
    • Double click the note again the edit. Or for a reference note, go to a site for PDF ;)
  • Snap notes: Drag one note onto another to snap them together.
  • Connect notes: Select a note, hold Command and click other notes to connect.
    • Click again to disconnect.
  • Pan canvas: Hold space to pan the canvas.
