# Sidenote

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/563165/Sidenote

> Sidenote is an AI reading assistant that runs in a browser side panel and helps people summarize, question, and verify the documents they read online. It works wherever reading happens: PDFs, scanned documents, Confluence and Notion wikis, Google Docs, SharePoint and OneDrive files, Gmail attachments, arXiv papers, Slack threads, and ordinary web articles, all without leaving the current tab.

Who uses Sidenote: knowledge workers who need to trust what they read, including consultants, analysts, legal and compliance teams, researchers, students, and teams that maintain wikis on Confluence or Notion. It suits solo users through mid-market firms.

What makes it different is verifiable output. Every summary and chat answer includes inline citation markers that link directly to the exact passage in the source document. Clicking a citation scrolls the original into view and highlights the passage, so claims can be checked in seconds rather than by rereading entire documents.

Additional capabilities include built-in OCR for scanned PDFs, summaries, chats, and glossaries that span multiple documents, and cached documents that reopen without using additional quota. A Slack integration answers questions across a team's saved documents.

Privacy and control: data lives on UK-based servers with row-level security. Store mode keeps documents for the life of the account, while Discard mode purges content within 24 hours. Shared links create static snapshots that can be revoked at any time.

Sidenote is available for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox and supports 17 languages. A free tier makes it easy to evaluate before upgrading, and every plan includes email support.
