We turn research papers into pages
people read to the end.
A reader gives your paper
about thirty seconds.
They skim the abstract, glance at one figure, and close the tab. That is not a problem with the work. It is a problem with the format.
So we rebuild it as something
you scroll through.
Humans learn better with surprise and delight
Every literature has the potential to surprise
But how do you provide readers with that delight?
1. Understand the technicalities and nuance of your literature
- We read the paper, the papers it cites, and the ones that disagree with it.
- Every claim gets mapped to its evidence, and to the caveat that qualifies it.
- We rebuild your numbers ourselves, so the model is ours to explain.
- Then we find the one idea a reader has to grasp before anything else lands.
2. Let your data come alive and tell its story through motion
- Distribution
- Relationships
- Comparison
- Time-based & temporal
3. Tell the story only a human can
- The machines draft fast; a human decides what the story is, and what stays out.
- We’ve told enough stories to know where a reader leans in — and where they leave.
- Imagination finds the picture that makes an abstract idea land.
- Empathy reads every scene the way your reader will, and fixes where they’d stop.
01 — How it runs
Five working days.
-
DAY 1
Send the paper
A preprint, a report, a deck, whatever exists. We read it and come back with the story we think is in it.
-
DAY 2
Approve the storyboard
Scene by scene, with the data visualisation. You correct the science here, before anything gets built on a misreading.
-
DAY 5
Your link goes live
A hosted page that works on a phone and holds up on a projector. One revision included.
A paper can be right
and still go nowhere.
Someone has to make it worth opening.
That part is ours.
02 — Work
Papers that became places you can walk through.
Each one is live. Open it on your phone and scroll.
The Invisible Dimension
How a flat plate remembers a three-dimensional scene, and what gets thrown away when it does.
Open live explainer
The Cells That Remember
Why a second dengue infection can be the dangerous one, and what T-cells were doing the whole time.
Open live explainer
When the Weather Became the Grid
A power system that now rises and falls with the weather, and what that does to a country's electricity.
Open live explainer
Send us the paper you wish more people had read.
Attach a PDF or a link. We will tell you whether it should be an explainer, and what it would cost.
