Paper Digest

Overview

Turn any academic paper into a structured, actionable research card. SoMark first parses the PDF into clean Markdown — correctly handling two-column layouts, inline formulas, figure captions, and reference lists. The AI then extracts a standardized research card ready for literature reviews, Notion/Obsidian databases, or team knowledge sharing.

Why SoMark first?

Academic PDFs are structurally hostile to standard text extraction: two-column layouts get scrambled, tables lose their alignment, figure captions drift out of context, and equations become gibberish. SoMark recovers the correct reading order and structure, which makes the subsequent AI analysis dramatically more accurate.

In short: parse with SoMark first, then extract structured insights.


When to trigger

  • Extract methodology, datasets, or results from a paper
