Saving is easy. Remembering why it mattered? That’s where Collabwriting shines.

Studying often means juggling a dozen tabs, scattered notes, and half-remembered links.

You find something useful in a research paper, another insight in a YouTube lecture, and a good quote in a PDF - but somehow, it all ends up lost or forgotten. Or buried somewhere in your Google Drive.

Sounds familiar, right?

That’s where Collabwriting helps.

Save What Matters, When It Matters

With Collabwriting, you can save key ideas from any source - academic articles, PDFs, YouTube videos, forums - with just one click.

Each highlight (we call it a snippet) stays linked to the original source and comes with your own notes, comments, tags, or reminders.

You can save key insights from any source:

  • Textbooks (PDF or web)

  • Lecture videos (YouTube)

  • Online articles and blogs

  • Discussion forums like Reddit, X, or LinkedIn

Every snippet you save includes:

  • What you found - the exact sentence or quote you saved

  • Why it matters - your comment, question, or thought right next to it

  • Where it came from - every snippet is linked to the original source

No more copy-pasting into random documents. Just highlight, add your thoughts, and move on.

A structure that actually fits the way you study

Collabwriting lets you organize everything into layers of structure:

  • Snippets - The highlights you save from any source

  • Hashtags - Tag snippets by subject or theme (e.g. #cellstructure, #frenchrevolution)

  • Topics - Group snippets that belong to the same concept (e.g. “Photosynthesis,” “World War II sources”)

  • Clusters - Bigger buckets for your study goals (e.g. “Biology Final Prep,” “History Essay Research,” “Group Project – Climate Change”)

So instead of bouncing between folders and files, you’ve got everything in one place - connected, searchable, and easy to review.

Learning is social - so is Collabwriting

Forget sending emails overloaded with links, screenshots, and “check this when you can” messages.

With Collabwriting, collaboration is simple and seamless.

  • You can share your work with anyone using just one Cowrite link. Your classmates or tutors can reply directly in context, without ever leaving the tool or juggling tabs.

  • Just @mention someone in your comment, and they’ll get notified instantly via email or Slack - even if they don’t use Collabwriting yet.

  • You stay in full control of what you share. Whether it’s a single Topic, a whole Cluster, or your entire Workspace, you decide who can view, comment, or edit.

Because learning is social, Collabwriting makes it easy to ask questions, share insights, and get feedback, right next to the exact sentence or highlight you’re discussing.

Ready whenever you need it

The snippets and notes you save in Collabwriting aren’t stuck inside the app.

When it’s time to write an essay, prepare a study guide, or work on a group project, you have plenty of easy ways to get your research out and into your favorite tools.

  1. You can export entire Topics - including all your comments - as an exact duplicate, even saving them into a different workspace if you want.

  2. Need just the snippets? Copy all highlights and comments from a Topic and paste them straight into Google Docs, Word, Notion, or any editor you like.

  3. If you prefer working with spreadsheets, download your whole Topic as a CSV file to open in Google Sheets, Excel, or any app that handles data.

  4. Want a physical copy? Save your snippets and notes as a PDF or print them directly - perfect for offline review or sharing.

  5. And for quick sharing or editing, simply drag and drop snippets from Collabwriting right into Gmail, Notion, Google Docs, or other apps without any extra hassle.

With so many flexible options, your research is always ready and organized wherever you need it most.

No more chaos. Just clarity.

With Collabwriting, you’re not just collecting random bits of information - you’re turning them into structured, meaningful knowledge.

From highlight → to note → to structured knowledge - in one click.

Study smarter. Research better. And finally feel like everything’s in one place - and making sense.

📌 The best study system is the one that helps you think, not just store.
