Inkive: Book Highlight Scanner
AI Snaps Highlights into Notes
Free · In‑App Purchases
Inkive is a smart reading companion that uses local AI to automatically capture your physical book highlights — no manual cropping required.
KEEP WHAT MATTERS
You underline an idea, highlight a sentence, or circle a passage worth remembering. But once the book is closed, those thoughts are easily lost. Inkive brings your marked passages into one searchable place, ready to review, edit, export, and share.
--------------------------------------
【MADE FOR PHYSICAL BOOKS】
Inkive is optimized for physical pages, common book layouts, and the natural ways readers mark what matters. From a subtle pencil underline to a highlighted paragraph, Inkive uses advanced text recognition to save your ideas without interrupting your reading flow.
