The Student-First PDF Tool
PDF.ai is great for documents, but TikoNote is built for students. Get quizzes, mind maps, and audio notes alongside your PDF interaction.
Documents vs. Exams
PDF.ai helps you read documents. TikoNote helps you pass exams. We add the layer of active recall that is missing from standard document AI tools.
The Missing Layer: Testing
Reading is passive. Testing is active. PDF.ai is a reader. TikoNote is a tester. By constantly quizzing you on the content, TikoNote ensures you retain the information.
