Capture your first note

Bower turns voice recordings, photos, and files into searchable, editable notes. Try one of these:

Speak it

Open Bower on your phone, tap the capture button, and speak your observation. Bower transcribes it with scientific vocabulary recognition.

Photograph it

Tap the camera icon, point at a notebook page, instrument display, or label. Bower reads the image and extracts the text automatically.

Import it

On desktop, click Import or drag files in. Bower handles images, voice recordings, PDFs, and Word documents — even mixed batches.

Type it

Click New note and start typing. The editor supports rich text, tables, and markdown.

Ask Bird

Once you have notes in your workspace, open the Bird panel on the right side of the desktop app and ask a question in plain language:
  • “Summarise my notes from this week”
  • “Find all pH readings above 8.0”
  • “Help me plan an experiment to test salinity tolerance — what methods have we used before, and what does the latest literature suggest?”
Bird searches across everything in your workspace and gives you a synthesised answer with sources.
