Vellum: Your Reading Space
PDFs, highlights & notes
Free
Keep your reading and ideas together. Read PDFs and saved articles, highlight passages, and take notes. Optional AI uses your own provider API key.
Read a PDF. Save an article. Keep your ideas with the page.
Vellum brings PDFs, web articles, highlights, and notes into one reading workspace on iPhone and iPad.
READ AND RETURN
Import PDFs, open web articles, and return to your recent reading. Search documents, bookmark important pages, and save offline copies of web articles.
KEEP YOUR THINKING WITH YOUR READING
Highlight passages and add annotations. Each document has its own Scratchpad for your notes, with Markdown and LaTeX support. On iPad, keep the page and Scratchpad side by side.
ASK QUESTIONS WITH OPTIONAL AI
Connect a supported AI provider using your own API key to ask questions about your reading. Vellum asks for permission before sharing document content. You can read, annotate, and take notes without an AI account.
BRING YOUR SAVED ARTICLES
Optionally connect Readwise Reader or Raindrop.io to access your reading list. These services require their own accounts.
Vellum is free to download and use, with no Vellum subscriptions or in-app purchases. Optional AI and reading services have their own eligibility requirements, availability, and fees.
