Over the past few weeks, I used Unriddle AI, now operating under the name Anara, to evaluate how it functions in a typical research setting. The tool is designed to process various content types such as PDFs, scanned documents, articles, audio, and video. In practice, it provided features like document summarization, note organization, and citation management, which can support common academic and professional workflows. This review is based on direct use of the platform and outlines both its practical functions and the areas where it may have limitations, depending on user needs.
To begin using Anara, you’ll need to create an account through their official site.

It works best when used as a support tool, not something to fully replace reading or writing. How useful it is really depends on your workflow and how you use its features.
