Ponder

What Ponder is

A workspace for research material that assumes the hard part is connecting ideas rather than storing files. You upload papers and notes, arrange them on an infinite canvas, and ask questions against the library you have built.

It is aimed at depth: the stated goal is thinking through material rather than producing output faster.

What you can do with it

• Upload papers, notes and other sources
• Arrange material on an infinite canvas
• Link related ideas explicitly
• Ask follow-up questions of your own library
• Work through a literature review with AI help
• Share the workspace with a research team

Who it is for

• Academic researchers and students
• Analysts working across many documents
• Writers building up background material
• Research teams sharing a library

What to watch out for

• Answers reflect what you uploaded, so gaps in the library become gaps in the answer
• Citations and figures must be checked against the original source
• A canvas grows unreadable without regular tidying
• Uploading unpublished or licensed material needs a rights check
