Edited May 3, 2025A: Hi, not at the moment. We will be working on PDF upload and scanning in future versions, table and formula extraction are valuable and we'll be considering the different needs, but I don't have an exact timeline for these features yet. Here's our full roadmap, in case that helps! https://roadmap.readwonders.com/

Just to confirm, your current sources of research contents will not be able to incorporate any online data, tables and formulas? How would this tool help me for any scientific related topics which requires access to these types of data for intepertation?

Hi Dlee, thanks for your follow-up question. To clarify:
1) Our sources will contain data, tables, and formulas as it is published scientific literature.
2) Our strength is currently in literature retrieval and management (we have features for review, like highlighting, but are still working on PDF processing)
3) We're working on PDF full-text use, which will include tables, etc.
