Feedback Form

Audemic

Audemic is an app for researchers that allows them to listen to Academic papers and take notes in an easily accessible way, with an initial focus on building the app for individuals who are neurodivergent and/or visually impaired.

In June we are commencing a project with the Co-Chair of the Disability Justice Caucus at Harvard Kennedy School. And as part of our product development, we would like to put the app into the hands of researchers and students who would find value from it, and get early feedback on how to improve. This could be via email, over the phone, or a focus group (We would be open to all forms of feedback)

Anyone an sign up and try out the app here, or for more information feel free to email the founder Joshua at (joshua@audemic.io)
