What it does

Written by AI from the README

Searches your PDFs' full text for original quotations and reviews supporting and opposing evidence with AI. Saves chosen passages as quotations or citations. Runs on Windows with a bundled Python runtime; models can be OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek or local Ollama.

Finding the exact passage that backs or contradicts a claim means re-reading many PDFs. This searches your own library and jumps to the highlighted passage. Its developer calls it experimental.

Your rating of Zitatlotse v0.30.0

Your review is public, under the name you give, and published with the directory's data under CC BY 4.0. Links are removed. We never store your IP address: a scrambled code made from it is kept for 30 days to catch fake reviews. Every review is checked before it's published; how fake ones are spotted isn't published, so it can't be gamed.
