Process flow: Collect sources -> Extract text -> Apply note structure -> Research summary tabs
Before (scattered input)
3 links, 2 PDFs, copied notes, and no clear structure for what matters vs what is background context.
After (structured output)
Overview: core thesis. Key findings: supporting points. Source notes: extracted evidence. Open questions: next research gaps.
Bring multiple inputs together
Break the research into useful sections
Reuse the same research format later
Why this matters
A few PDFs, several links, notes in another document, maybe some copied text. The research itself is not the only problem. The sprawl is.
Research notes are more useful when the material is split into sections like overview, key points, source notes, and open questions.
Useful research notes should still feel grounded in the underlying material, not like a generic AI rewrite with no connection to what you collected.
A literature scan, a competitive review, and a topic overview should not all end up in the same shape.
How it works
Upload files, add links, paste text, or bring in web material so the research starts from the sources you actually gathered.
Use a Blueprint to decide whether the notes should be organized as overview, key findings, source notes, questions, or another structure.
Refine the output, update sections, and export the notes once they are in a form that is useful for your project.
Why Heyblocks fits
Research work usually breaks when the material is scattered. One source says one thing, another adds context, and a third changes the angle entirely.
Heyblocks works well when you want to collect the material first, then turn it into a cleaner note structure you can review, edit, and reuse with the same Blueprint later.
FAQ
Yes. The useful part is not just condensing the material, but organizing it into a structure you can actually work from. Heyblocks helps do that with named sections and editable outputs.
Files, links, pasted text, and gathered web material are all useful inputs. The key is that your notes come from the material you collected, not just a blank prompt.
Because research is easier to work with when different parts are separated. A summary can help, but sections like key points, source notes, and open questions make the output more usable.
Yes. That is what Blueprints are for. You can save a format once, then apply it to future research projects so your outputs stay consistent.

Heyblocks also works for study videos, meeting recordings, and interview transcripts when you need structured notes instead of a raw transcript or generic AI summary.
