Annotate PDFs with Sticky Notes and AI Citations

Upload lecture slides and PDFs, add sticky notes to mark up key sections, and let AI cite the exact page it pulled an answer from.

Notova’s PDF Annotation turns any PDF or slide deck into an interactive study document. Drop sticky notes on the parts that matter, and when you ask Notova a question, its answer comes with small citation buttons that jump straight back to the exact page and section they came from.

Plain highlights and margin scribbles get lost, and AI answers that don’t point back to your material are hard to trust. Notova keeps your notes attached to the exact page and shows you where every answer came from.
