Audemic Scholar turns academic PDFs into an audio workflow for reading, listening, highlighting, and notes.

What is Audemic Scholar?

Audemic Scholar is a web and mobile product for PhD students and researchers who want to read academic papers in a less time-consuming way. It turns research PDFs into an audio-first reading workflow while keeping the text, notes, and structure available in one place.

The site positions the product around three main tasks: uploading or importing papers, listening to either full text or key statements, and organizing insights with highlights and notes. It also adds accessibility-oriented options such as playback speed controls, a dyslexic font, background color choices, and a read-along view that tracks spoken text.

What can Audemic Scholar do?

PDF upload and import

Upload a PDF research paper or import it from a reference manager, then work from the same paper inside Audemic.

Audio reading modes

Switch between the full text and key statements, and listen to academic papers with neural, non-robotic voices.

Immersive read-along

The reader highlights text as it is spoken, making it easier to follow along while listening.

Highlighting and note taking

Save interesting passages with highlights and notes, then organize them for later review.

Translation support

Translate papers from English into Spanish, which the site says is currently available.

Flexible reading workflow

Adjust playback speed, reorder paper sections from the sidebar, and use the app across devices with mobile sync.

Use Cases

“Listen to papers away from the desk”

Researchers can turn dense papers into an audio workflow when they want to review literature while commuting, exercising, or doing other tasks.

“Annotate while reading”

A user can upload a paper, follow the text as it is read aloud, and keep highlights and notes together for later writing or review.

“Adapt reading for personal preferences”

People with accessibility needs can use playback speed, background color choices, and the dyslexic font option to adapt the reading experience.

“Continue across web and mobile”

Users who organize literature across devices can sync papers to the mobile app and continue listening or reviewing on the go.

“Review papers in shorter passes”

Researchers working through difficult sections can switch between full text and key statements to focus on the most relevant parts first.
