1

Research creates a stream of copied fragments

Useful material comes from PDFs, web pages, lecture notes, chat, and documents during the same session.

2

History keeps material recoverable

TextStow records copied snippets so you do not need to paste every quote immediately just to avoid losing it.

3

Bookmarks turn sources into a working library

Save the best snippets as bookmarks, add categories, and clean messy PDF text before it reaches your draft.
