Merge papers, OCR archive scans, summarize with AI, compress preprints for arXiv. Built for researchers who care about reproducibility and privacy.
Academic research generates an absurd amount of PDFs: papers from journals, scanned archive documents, conference proceedings, working drafts shared with collaborators, preprints for repositories. Most researchers hack this together with Mendeley, Zotero, Adobe Reader, and a desperate prayer.
Konomic gives you the specialized PDF operations researchers actually need — combining bibliographies, OCR-ing 100-year-old scans, compressing files for arXiv's 50 MB limit, summarizing papers with AI for fast literature reviews. All on EU servers with GDPR compliance.
Adobe Acrobat at $19.99/month — comes out of personal budget when grants don't cover software
100+ papers in a literature review, each needs to be skimmed
Old archive scans are unsearchable — manually retyping takes weeks
Conference proceedings come as 200 separate PDFs that need merging
Preprint exceeds arXiv's 50 MB limit but you can't lose figure quality
Need to share working drafts with collaborators across institutions
