Anara builds a personal library from a researcher's uploaded PDFs and connected sources, then lets you search the literature, ask questions across documents with inline citations, and draft and cite papers. It searches PubMed, arXiv, and JSTOR directly and connects to Zotero, Mendeley, Notion, and cloud drives. A free plan covers core reading and search; paid Plus, Pro, and Max tiers raise limits and add team features.
