Publish your study notes
Publish your study notes. Let readers subscribe to your study.
Most people never do anything with their notes. thinking-ape is a publishing platform for your study notes, where readers subscribe directly to your ongoing study, chapter by chapter, timestamp by timestamp, as you work through books, videos, and papers.
How it works
How to publish: Everything here is built around one unit, a source and the notes you wrote from it.

Why notes deserve to be published
Almost no one does this
Study notes stay buried in private apps. A published, subscribable study is rare, so yours stands out the moment it exists.
Show how you actually think
Readers get a window into someone else's cognition, the real reasoning as it happens, not a tidy summary after the fact.
Compare your notes with others
Working through the same book, video or paper? Follow someone else's study and see where your thinking lines up, and where it doesn't.
