Very useful as a support in reading… Very useful as a support in reading literature and in dense works such as systematic reviews.

Has potential Scholarcy has the potential to be the best summary research organising tool, and for some, I believe this can be an amazing tool. I am autistic, and when I read papers, I often have no idea what I should be highlighting, Getting to the gist of things can be a challenge. This is a pro with Scholarcy as it also provides a synopsis. It allows you to click on the citation from that paper and sometimes connects you to the right page. It has a feature where you can hover over acronyms if you've forgotten what the acronym is, which I thought was amazing as it saves you from scrolling to the top of the paper. However, Scholarcy does not show you the full pdf, and when you click on the full text, their AI often changes the structure of the text so that it is disjointed and hard to follow. For example, it may randomly put a citation link in the middle of the text. This can cause me to feel very stressed. The interface was quite a lot for me, sensory-wise, if they had a more simple interface, that would be ideal. You can't edit the important notes, and when you highlight the full text, it asks you to join an external app called Highlight, which may be the best thing in the world, and maybe if it was the beginning of the university year and I had time to figure out how they interlinked, it may work seamlessly. Scholarcy also does not offer student discounts, unlike their competitors, however, they said they will be updating this. Probably after a few more updates, Scholarcy could be a very strong tool.

No value added This service basically copies and pastes certain sections of articles/chapter and claims that this is "AI summarizing." The quality dropped significantly, interestingly enough, a few weeks after my free subscription expired. The interface is also glitchy. Do not pay money for this service.
