Keep notes, research sources and attachments together on iOS, iPadOS and macOS. Hikari Scribe combines a research diary with linked timelines, PubMed and OpenAlex search, Zotero integration, bibliographies and citations. Browse journal data from your own SCImago CSV, transcribe audio on-device with Whisper, and capture ideas with the Apple Watch companion. This first beta focuses on personal workflows; multi-user collaboration is planned for later.
Over the past few months, a problem from my own research workflow has turned into an app.
As a neurosurgeon and researcher, I often found myself trying to reconnect things that belonged together: a reading note, the paper behind it, an image, a file, or an idea recorded on the move. Weeks later, finding the material was only half the challenge remembering how my thinking had developed was the other half.
