Source Processing

Six source types. One research pipeline.

Research doesn't arrive in a single format. Upload PDFs, audio recordings, video lectures, web articles, images, and plain text. Kognific's AI pipeline extracts structured knowledge from every format and makes each source citable, searchable, and ready for synthesis.

  • Process PDFs, audio, video, web pages, images, and plain text through a single workflow
  • Each source is extracted, summarized, and enriched with bibliographic metadata
  • Key concepts and findings are identified and indexed during processing
  • Processed sources are immediately available for Q&A, synthesis, and drafting
  • Batch upload processes multiple sources in parallel without manual configuration
  • Every processed source can be cited in APA, MLA, Chicago, IEEE, Harvard, or Vancouver

PDF Processing

Layout-aware extraction handles multi-column academic PDFs, tables, figures, and footnotes. Processes preprints, journal articles, dissertations, and reports with equal accuracy.

Audio and Video Processing

Transcribe lectures, conference talks, seminars, and interviews. Key points are extracted with timestamp links. Transcripts are searchable and citable alongside your PDFs.

Web Page Processing

Paste any URL and Kognific fetches and processes the page as a research source. Articles, blog posts, reports, and documentation are extracted, structured, and added to your library.

Image Processing

Upload images containing research content: figures, tables, charts, posters, whiteboard photos, and screenshots. Kognific extracts and structures the visual content for your research library.

Metadata Enrichment

Title, authors, publication date, journal or venue, and DOI are extracted or inferred during processing. This powers one-click citation generation in six academic citation styles.

Structured Summaries

Every processed source receives a structured summary covering key findings, methodology, theoretical contributions, and limitations. The full text is indexed for search and Q&A from the moment processing completes.
