The Readwise alternative built for remembering

Saving highlights isn't the same as remembering them

Highlighting feels like keeping something. But most of what we mark fades within weeks unless we meet it again, briefly and at the right moments. A bigger archive doesn't fix that. Seeing the right lines again does. That's the whole idea behind Quotabl, and every feature is built around it.

What you get with Quotabl

• Kindle sync in about a minute. Sign in on Amazon's own page and Quotabl imports your books, highlights and notes from 13 Amazon stores. No exports, no files, nothing to configure.
• Every Kindle highlight, even the ones Amazon doesn't sync. Import My Clippings.txt from any Kindle e-reader for books you didn't buy on Amazon; duplicates from edited highlights are cleaned up and your notes stay attached.
• Paper books too. Point your camera at a page and tap the lines you want.
• A daily review that takes two minutes. A few highlights at a time on a spaced schedule; keep the ones that matter and they come back on a growing schedule.
• Your quotes where you'll see them. A Home Screen and Lock Screen widget with a new highlight every few hours, and a reminder at the time you choose.
• Margo, a reading companion who has read everything you highlighted. Ask what you keep coming back to, get a recap of a book from your own highlights, quiz yourself, or find your next read. Every answer points back to your highlights. Meet Margo.
• Quote cards worth sharing in five looks, story or square, plus full-text search, favourites, your own notes and a Markdown export of your whole library.

Who Quotabl is for

• You read on Kindle, an e-reader or the app, or on paper, and you highlight as you go.
• You want your highlights to find you, instead of sitting in an archive you never open.
• You'd like to think about what you read: what keeps coming up, what a book gave you, what's next.
• You want something that works in a minute and feels good to open every day.

What's coming

Kindle is where Quotabl starts. We're building more ways to bring your highlights in, integrations with the tools you already use, a web app and a browser extension, all with the same idea at the centre: what you read should stay with you.
