Your quotes, connected across every book you've read
Every quote you save is automatically tagged with a few themes and compared by meaning against everything else you've saved. A passage from a novel can surface alongside one from a poem or a science book when they circle the same idea, and saved quotes come back later on a spaced-repetition schedule so you meet them again before they fade.
Available on web and iOS.
Storage is not the point; retrieval is. Automatic tagging matters because it means finding a passage later doesn't depend on you having filed it correctly at capture time — the moment when you are least willing to do admin.
The connections are drawn across your own library, which is what makes them worth reading. A reading history is otherwise a series of disconnected dots: fifty finished books with nothing running between them.
What it can't do
- Connections come only from passages you have actually saved. A library with a handful of quotes has few connections to find.
- Matches are scoped to your own quotes, and can include other passages from the same book as well as different ones.
- Automatic themes are a reasonable first pass, not a curator's judgement. They make things findable; they don't tell you what matters.
Questions people ask
- Does ReadingRate connect quotes between different books?
- Yes. Saved passages are compared by meaning across your whole library, so a line from one book can surface alongside a related one from another.
- Will I be reminded of quotes I saved?
- Yes. Saved quotes resurface on a spaced-repetition schedule, on the same principle as flashcards.
