Perspectives+
Literature Notebook is one private study with two equal halves: a Review workspace for the works you read, and a Write workspace for the works you create. Both cover Fiction, Nonfiction and Scholarly, and both go far deeper than a notes field.
Notebook Free is available at no cost. Notebook Plus is $10 a month or $100 a year and Studio is $18 a month or $180 a year, each with a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers — one trial per account. Payments and subscription management are handled by Stripe.
Workspace one
For works created by other people. Record what you read, save passages with their context, work through analysis pages built for that kind of text, and set works against each other.
Workspace two
For original work you are creating. Hold ideas until they are ready, plan with pages made for the form, draft in a real section hierarchy, and revise in deliberate passes.
Whether you are analysing someone else's book or building your own, the category shapes the questions you are asked.
Save a passage with its location, your note and a category, so the quote still means something months later.
A novel, a memoir and an empirical paper ask different questions. Core pages guide you; optional pages can be marked not applicable.
Turn a saved passage into a source attached to a specific section of your own draft, and keep that lineage visible.
Markdown notebooks, Markdown manuscripts, and a complete archive of your whole account whenever you want it.
Scholars building a literature review sit alongside people reading a novel for pleasure, a memoir, or the current book club pick — the same workspace, adapted to the work in front of you.
Click through a real working pass in each workspace. Everything shown is illustrative sample data — no account needed.
Step 1
Step 1
Your library, drafts, notes and highlights are accessible through your account, except where limited support, security, infrastructure, or legal access is required — enforced in the database itself rather than by hiding things in the interface. Sign in with email or Google, and explore a sample notebook first if you would rather see it in motion.
The Notebook plan is free forever and includes both workspaces and all three categories. Compare plans or read what we store and why.
