Read and evaluate texts your way. Citavi fits all reading styles: you can minutely analyze and comment on the text – or quickly highlight the most important sections. Working in a team? Easily share your insights with your colleagues.

Evaluate
  • Read PDFs and highlight important sections. You can later revisit the text and transform highlights for additional work in Citavi.
  • Write up detailed evaluations for your references or quickly rate them with stars.
Excerpt quotations
  • Save information and ideas while you read: copy quotations, summaries, thoughts, comments and image quotations.
  • If you’re using Citavi for a paper or a report, assign them to the chapters, sections and subsections in your outline.
  • All items automatically include their source information. Citavi protects you from unintentional plagiarism.
  • Citavi's hierarchical category system is perfect for organizing your quotations, images, summaries, comments, thoughts, and ideas into sections for later use in a document.
See the big picture
  • Export all knowledge items as a compilation – with their categories and including a bibliography. This gives you a good overview of how far along you are in your project.
  • Compilations can also be used as a handout in team meetings or for discussions.
