Comments

DoCube keeps reading local: PDFs (including scans with on-device OCR), EPUBs, web pages, Markdown, and lecture videos live in one library on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Highlights stay on the source so you can jump back to the exact page or timestamp, notes are searchable with BM25 plus vectors, and AI answers cite that spot. Free for 5 documents; Pro is a one-time purchase. If you read long sources and hate losing the page you meant, I would like to hear what you use today.

I like it Local-first reader + knowledge base for deep reading

Citing the exact page or timestamp for lecture videos is the part I'd use most. Does the on-device OCR handle mixed-language scans (say, Hindi + English textbooks), and do highlights sync between the iPhone and Mac apps without any cloud?

Local-first plus on-device OCR is the right call for scanned lecture PDFs — cloud readers tend to fall over exactly there. Two things I'd want spelled out on the page: how OCR is batched on a 300–400 page scan (does the import block while it runs?), and whether the one-time Pro purchase covers future major versions. And it would be worth showing an export sample — anyone with a few years of highlights will ask how they get them out as plain Markdown with the sources intact.
