CrucibleIQ โ€” Full Workflow

Video coming soon

See how CrucibleIQ takes you from sources to finished paper

Less time on busywork. More time on your research.

Find anything across your sources

Search every source in your project by meaning, not just keywords. Describe what you remember and get the exact passage and page in seconds. No more opening PDFs one by one.

Stop switching between apps

PDF reader, notes app, citation manager, and Word. That's 4 apps and constant context-switching. CrucibleIQ brings sources, annotations, citations, and writing into one workspace.

Citations that build themselves

Drag an annotation into the Writer and the citation generates itself, parenthetical or narrative, in any style. Switch from APA to Chicago with one click. The bibliography builds automatically from your citations.

How It Works

From Chaos to Finished Paper.

Everything you need to research and write, in one place. No tutorials required.

1

Gather Your Sources

Upload your PDFs, DOCX, or EPUB files, or search 474M+ academic papers with one search. Metadata is extracted automatically. No manual data entry.

Sound familiar?

"I know I read this somewhere but I can't find it."

"Wait, how do you cite a website in APA again?"

"I've got PDFs everywhere and no idea what's in them."

"It's 2am and I'm still formatting my bibliography."

It's not you. The tools weren't built for this. We built something that was.
