Use tool ↗About Logically
Logically is the current form of Afforai: a research workspace combining a reference manager, a PDF and EPUB annotator, and a document writer whose AI suggestions cite from your own library. It handles more than 10,000 citation styles and ingests PDF, EPUB, DOCX, PPTX, TXT, Markdown, URLs and DOIs up to 25 MB or 200 pages per file. Around it sit ten free mini-tools including a citation generator, summariser, paraphraser and AI detector. The free tier caps you at 100 MB of storage and five AI actions per category per day; Unlimited lifts every cap at $12 per user per month billed yearly.

Pros & cons of Logically
Bundling a reference manager, an annotator and a citing AI writer into one $12 subscription is genuinely cheaper than stitching Zotero, an annotator and a chatbot together. The rebrand is the thing to watch: old links, reviews and directory entries still say Afforai, and the free tier is tight enough to work mainly as a demo.
Pros
- Reference manager, annotator and AI writer share a single library
- Over 10,000 citation styles with automatic metadata extraction
- Ten free mini-tools usable without opening the main app
- 50% student discount and a 30-day money-back guarantee
Cons
- Free plan is capped at 100 MB and five AI actions per category per day
- Free PDF exports carry a watermark
- No public API, and the Obsidian extension is still in beta
Best for
- Students and researchers who want citations and drafting in the same editor
- Anyone consolidating a reference manager and an AI assistant into one bill
- Obsidian users who want citation-backed research over their own vault
Not for
- Developers who want API access to the library or the AI
- Anyone whose day needs more than five free AI actions per category
Watch out: Afforai is now Logically: afforai.com redirects to logically.app while the footer still credits Afforai Inc. as owner, so older bookmarks, reviews and pricing write-ups may not match what you actually get.
