Research across documents

Ask one question across multiple PDFs.

Compare findings, trace disagreements, and build a connected view across a folder of documents without flattening every source into one answer.

Why Collate

Designed for questions that span a library.

Compare sources

Ask where documents agree, differ, or use different definitions for the same idea.

Work from folders

Organize related PDFs as a project and keep the material together over time.

Trace the evidence

Use source references to inspect the document behind an answer.

Synthesis

Bring related papers into one conversation.

Multi-document questions help reveal patterns without replacing the work of checking each source.

  • Select a relevant group of PDFs
  • Compare claims and terminology

Organization

Folders, persistent conversations, and highlights create a research trail you can revisit.

  • Group documents by subject or project
  • Preserve useful questions
  • Export selected answers, summaries, or highlights
