What is Genei?
AI Research and Summarization for Academics and Analysts
Genei is an AI-powered research tool that combines document summarization, keyword extraction, and note-taking to help academics and knowledge workers process large amounts of reading material more efficiently. It ingests PDFs and web articles, extracts the key information, and allows users to build research notes connected to the source material.
