Recogito
What Recogito is
Recogito is a free web service for working with annotated material. It offers guest access and comments, allowing people to review and discuss content without requiring an account. The service is hosted in Vienna, Austria. Recogito does not provide real-time editing, so collaborators should not expect simultaneous live changes. Its pricing model includes a free plan, and its native app coverage is web rather than a separate desktop or mobile application. Recogito suits readers who need a browser-based, no-cost workspace where guests can access material and participants can leave comments. Its main points are web availability, free access, guest participation, and commenting, with real-time editing explicitly unavailable.
