What Scrintal is
Scrintal is a visual thinking tool for collecting ideas in documents and boards and showing how they relate. Its infinite canvas holds PDFs, images, notes, and documents for reading, note-taking, and watching videos together. Users can connect ideas with arrows and bi-directional links, then turn blocks into documents with a click. An AI Assistant is included to streamline time-consuming work. Friends and colleagues can be invited to collaborate in real time. Scrintal presents the product for learners and researchers working on learning and research. It runs on the web, Windows, and macOS, with downloads listed for Windows, macOS, and macOS Intel. The paid Scrintal Pro plan lists unlimited documents and boards, unlimited file uploads, real-time collaboration, priority support, and community calls with the team; no price is listed. The maker, Scrintal, was founded in 2020 and is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden. Its privacy policy says personal data is processed under the GDPR and other applicable rules.
