Welcome to Scholio's Private Beta

Academic writing finally gets the tool it deserves. Here's what's live on day one — and where we're taking it.

Academic writing is broken. Not the research — the tooling.

Google Docs doesn’t understand citations. Word has no real version control. Overleaf has no AI and collaboration is an afterthought. We’ve all been duct-taping our workflows together for too long.

Today, Scholio opens its private beta — and we’re starting to fix that.

What’s live right now

  • Markdown editor with live preview — citations, KaTeX math, footnotes, and Vega-Lite charts rendered as you type
  • Version control built in — commit with a message, diff any two versions, restore in one click
  • Role-based collaboration — invite co-authors, reviewers, and commenters; comments anchor to the exact text
  • AI assistant that reads your entire project before answering
  • Wikilinks between documents in the same project
  • Export to LaTeX (.tex) and Typst (.typ) with your bibliography embedded

Open source, your data

Scholio is free software. The code is auditable, the platform is self-hosteable, and your data stays yours.

What’s next

We’re shipping fast. On the roadmap: public document sharing, full-text search across your project, and AI improvements driven by your feedback.

Found a bug? Have an idea? We want to hear from you.
