Research Log
Knowledgeweight 1tracker · keeps what you put in
The perfect source, found at midnight in the fourteenth open tab, is gone by morning. Research Log is the habit that saves you: a running record of what you looked into, what you found, and where it lives, kept as you go rather than reconstructed in a panic. Future-you, writing the thing up, will be quietly grateful.
This is not a screenshot. It's the real tool, running right here — go on, put something in it.

Questions people ask
What goes into a Research Log?
Whatever your digging turns up: the questions you chased, the sources you found, the notes on what they said. The discipline is writing it down at the moment of finding, and the log makes that easy.
Who is the Research Log for?
Students, academics, journalists, and the professionally curious — anyone whose work involves finding things out and then, weeks later, proving where they found them.
Does the Research Log work offline, like in an archive or a library basement?
Yes — it's one HTML file that runs entirely in your browser, no connection or account required. Your notes and sources never leave the page, and the file is yours for good.
