Read scientific papers figure by figure.

BentoPaper is a PDF reader for biomedical and other scientific papers. It splits each multi-panel figure into its panels, links every panel to the sentences that cite it, and keeps your notes next to the evidence they came from.

• Panels, not just figuresOpen a figure and see each labelled panel on its own, so you can check panel C without hunting through the whole image.
• Text and figures linkedJump from a sentence to the panel it cites, and from a panel back to every sentence that discusses it.
• Notes that keep their sourceHighlights, notes and cards stay attached to the exact passage or panel, across all the papers in your library.
• AI help that shows its evidenceAsk a question about a paper and get an answer tied to the passages and panels it used.
