Exclusive document handling solutions for academics
Addressing researchers' literature management pain points, Fenn offers a lightweight solution that differentiates itself from specialized software such as EndNote:
- Cross-format content association: Establish semantic associations between PDF papers, recorded videos, and handwritten notes. For example, when searching for "neural network gradient vanishing":
- Automatic association of PDFs of the same name with corresponding lecture video clips
- Recognizing handwritten annotations in scanned documents
- Support for direct indexing of Zotero repositories (needs to be checked in settings)
- Timeline Search ModeWhen you are writing academically, you can quickly locate recent references by using "Revision time:2023-2024 Citation", and realize version control by using "Creation time:Last month" and other conditions.
- OCR Enhancement Program: Special symbols for formulas in scanned PDF/images:
- Turn on "Enhanced Character Recognition" in Settings - Advanced.
- Use LaTeX syntax when searching (e.g. alpha_1)
- Secondary filtering by "similar graphics" for misidentified content
Typical example: A PhD student locates a certain experimental method description in 2000+ documents, which takes 2 hours in traditional way, and Fenn can complete it in 5 minutes by combining conditions such as "Immunofluorescence in mouse hippocampus Figure 3″.
