PowerNotes is a productivity tool that allows you to gather, organize, and track internet research easily and efficiently.

PowerNotes helps researchers make the leap from research to writing. First, the browser extension gives you the fastest way to save passages from the web, PDFs, and other digital materials. When you save a passage, you will also organize it and take notes. All saving will be done without leaving the source, so you won't need to copy and paste anymore! Also, the organizational structure is up to you. PowerNotes gives you a flexible organizational framework so that you can make the framework more sophisticated over time. So when you are doing research, you won't just be saving content, you will be creating an annotated outline at the same time. Everything that you gather will be saved in the Cloud.

Once you've gathered your research, you can view an outline of your research in our web app, where you can assess and reorganize it. We built an interface specifically designed for reorganization. You can just drag and drop your digital note cards, move them around with a simple menu (again, no more copy and pasting), and create blank note cards to incorporate your own thoughts. You can even turn your research outline into a writing outline so that you can more easily start that first draft. You can download your research into a MS Word or Google Doc, a spreadsheet, or RIS file.

If you are an academic, student, instructor, or otherwise just a person who has lots of interests but a hard time keeping track of them then at least watch the full promo video so you see a waide range of the extension's functionality. I started using Power Notes last year and wrote a brief letter to the developers thanking them for the ease and utility this app has added into my day to day for work as a researcher and hobby as a writer. I have tried using Evernote and Pocket as well as other less well known notetaking apps but nothing was designed with anything close to the ease of use as Power Notes. This is especially true if you use the ext for professional or academic reasons given its built in citation generation, export tool, and organization optimizations. Really, get this tool.

This checks so many boxes for what I've been looking for a long time. I do wish it had ipad/iphone apps for when I'm not at my desk but I can see how that would be a drastically different function from what the browser app does really well so the tradeoff for me is far worth it.

When I first learned about PowerNotes, I used it to organize ideas and notes for my own projects to get a better feel for how the program worked. Shortly thereafter, I began introducing PowerNotes to my (college-level) writing students, encouraging them to use it for their class assignments.

Each semester students comment on the program's intuitive, user-friendly interface, but my STEM students have consistently been the most enthusiastic users, saying that PowerNotes has made it much easier for them to gather information, organize ideas, identify and address gaps, and maintain cohesion (i.e., their papers still "flow"); most have said they plan to keep using the program in their other courses.

My students may like the fact that PowerNotes simplifies and streamlines their work but, as a writing teacher, I have seen a pedagogical value. Most notable is the improvement in both my students' writing process and in the documents they ultimately submit.

Saving time on tedious source documentation, students can focus attention on organizing and developing their ideas, share drafts with me and their peers quickly, and try out alternative structures with minimal repercussions. The result: more thoughtful, engaging arguments.

An incredibly useful tool, in and beyond the classroom!
