AI app for science and research · no coding needed
Multi-source research capture and study library
Reduce time spent organizing and revisiting research material while keeping sources traceable.
Made for: Researchers, students and analysts who capture notes and media from many sources and need to search, study and question the saved content
What it does for you
The problem
Notes, recordings, scans and documents live in separate tools, so transcription, summarizing, search and study aids are manual and disconnected.
What it gives you
A searchable, cited library with transcription, summaries, study aids and question answering

Questions
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You copy and paste the prompts on this page into ChatGPT or Claude, and the AI does the building. When it asks you something, you answer in your own words.
What does it cost?
The quick version, the app pack and the step-by-step instructions are for members: you pay the membership price, not a price per app (see the plans). Building the full app uses your own ChatGPT or Claude subscription. Putting it online is often cheap or no cost at the start, and your AI tells you before anything costs money.
How long does it take?
The quick version: about two minutes. The real app: an afternoon for a first version you can use, longer if you want every feature.
Can I change it to fit my business?
Yes. Tell your AI what to change in plain words, like “add a column for the price” or “use our logo and colours”. Or have Nexibeo build and customise it for you.
More detailsHow the AI works, safeguards and what to build first
Reduce time spent organizing and revisiting research material while keeping sources traceable. For researchers, students and analysts who capture notes and media from many sources and need to search, study and question the saved content, convert text, images, audio, PDFs, videos, web links, scans and sketches into a searchable, cited library with transcription, summaries, study aids and question answering. The benefit is a testable hypothesis, measured through time from capture to usable summary and cited answers verified per query; do not assume that AI output alone produces business value.
Confirm the buyer's problem and scope, collect text, images, audio, PDFs, videos, web links, scans and sketches, then follow this sequence: 1. Capture text, images, audio, PDFs, videos, web links, scans and sketches into one library. 2. Transcribe recorded audio from meetings, lectures and voice memos. 3. Generate concise summaries with key points and tasks. 4. Answer natural-language questions from saved notes and documents. Resolve uncertain cases with qualified reviewers, approve the searchable, cited library, and measure time from capture to usable summary and cited answers verified per query against a documented baseline.
How the AI works
Use AI to interpret permitted inputs, suggest structured mappings and generate candidate outputs for the stated task modules. Use deterministic code for arithmetic, schema validation, hard constraints and reproducible tests. Review source-linked explanations and uncertainty before accepting results. On-device processing is limited to supported models and storage; final source verification and study decisions remain with the user. A model suggestion is never a verified fact, professional decision or authorization to act.
Safeguards
Preserve source attribution, quotation accuracy and usage permissions. Users approve substantive changes and sharing scope. One approved input set and one device platform; final source verification and study decisions remain with the user. Keep all consequential actions under authorized human control and do not fabricate missing inputs, permissions, professional judgments or market evidence.
What to build first
Pilot scope: One approved input set and one device platform; final source verification and study decisions remain with the user. Implement one approved input format, a bounded representative case set and the first three task modules: capture text, images, audio, PDFs, videos, web links, scans and sketches into one library; transcribe recorded audio; generate concise summaries. Support the remaining modules with operator review: answer natural-language questions, search by concept, generate flashcards and quizzes, auto-categorize, resurface saves, apply in-note AI edits, connect external AI providers, run on-device processing, sync across devices, scan and OCR, capture calendar details, store Markdown, group into spaces and cite sources. Include source references, corrections, basic organization access, approval states, export and value measurement. Use managed operator assistance for unresolved exceptions. The cost estimate covers this narrow prototype, not unrestricted multi-tenant scale, complex production integrations, specialist certification or physical operations.
What it can connect to
Author-owned notes, recordings, documents and permitted research sources. Cloud asset storage, calendar, external AI providers and export destinations. Start with file exchange and validate destination specifications before promising direct publishing. Start with authorized file exchange. Validate current provider access, usage rights and schema behavior before promising a connector.
The screens in detail
Primary screens: Capture inbox, Library and search, Study and question console. Use a thumbnail and list gallery for saved items, a large central reading and playback canvas, and a right-hand panel for sources, citations and AI actions. Let users compare a summary against the original recording or document. Display draft, reviewed and approved states. Provide a shareable collection link with comments anchored to the relevant item. Make the task-specific outcome a searchable, cited library with transcription, summaries, study aids and question answering visible beside its evidence, review state and value baseline.
