Ubik is built to strengthen and speed up the research process. With powerful academic search and PDF annotation tools, Ubik's AI agents can find, cite, and highlight quotes in relevant academic papers.

Our core belief (my friend and I) is that AI should help bring out the best in humans. What does this mean?

Reading, annotating, and citing real work (PDFs)!

Upload, or search and add papers to your workspace. Our AI Agents can create notes that can be referenced contextually when prompting using the @ sign to increase accuracy and efficacy. Ubik helps turn ideas into high-level work with citations.

If you aren't writing research papers or don't need to search for academic sources, Ubik is still a great everyday, general AI workspace. With access to 20+ models, web search, a text editor (canvas), and unique PDF highlighting tools, Ubik helps humans develop critical thinking skills while using GenAI.

We are Ubik. You are Ubik. Everything is Ubik.

Thank you so much! PKD is the GOAT. Glad my dad introduced me to his writing when I was little, it has helped me laugh, escape, and analyze life through a lens I'm truly grateful for.
