Since they all enjoyed reading, they wanted to discover ways to read more books in a shorter amount of time. During their academic journey, they leveraged note-taking as a means to remember the books they read, and realized the value it added to their learning process. Hence, they created an app to provide access to their notes at any time. More information...
