Reach for any paper - and it's already open.

At home, in the lab, on the ward - the full text is simply there. No password, no VPN, nothing to install. Your references, your highlights and your team are already on the page beside you. The bounce between tabs disappears, and what's left is the work - and the quiet pleasure of nothing getting in your way.

Everything in one place

Signed in before you reach for a password

Open a paper on a publisher your institution knows, and a quiet "Portium sign in" appears - one tap, and the full text is simply there. No new password, no VPN, no "which institution are you?" for the hundredth time. You're recognised, you're in, and what you read stays yours.

Signed in before you reach for a password

Good to know

No. You sign in with the institutional login you already use; on a supported publisher a "Portium sign in" suggestion appears and your access is passed through securely.

Your team, your research - one room that travels with you

References, highlights, notes and files in a single shared library - in sync the instant anyone touches it, a hover away from whatever you're reading. Nothing to install, nothing to email, nothing lost between five copies.

  • Reveal the Portium toolbar from any publisher page - just hover the top edge of any site you're reading and the bar drops in. Your whole workspace, one hover away, with nothing to install.

Good to know

Yes. Resources are linked into projects, not copied, so the same reference, highlight, or file can belong to many projects at once - and removing it from one never deletes it.

Save once. The citation writes itself.

Tap save from the toolbar and the paper is yours - clean title, authors and DOI already filled in, the full text and a snapshot kept safe, searchable in a keystroke. When it's time to write, it's ready in any of thousands of styles, or slips straight into a project. Nothing retyped, nothing lost, nothing left at a paywall.

Save once. The citation writes itself.

Good to know

Portium resolves metadata server-side from CrossRef and PubMed (by DOI or PMID) and from the page's citation tags, storing clean CSL-JSON - so most saves are accurate without any hand-editing.

Highlight anything, anywhere - and find it right where you left it

Select a line on any page or PDF and it's marked - a highlight, a note, no extension to add. Come back tomorrow or next year and it's exactly where you left it, even if the page has been redrawn. Every page you touch becomes a living text you can return to - yours alone, or shared with your team, each in their own colour.

Good to know

Yes. They re-anchor with multiple strategies, so they reappear even after a site re-renders or shifts its layout - and they load automatically the next time you open the page.

The next paper you need, already waiting

Keep anything worth returning to - tucked into folders, a keystroke from found. And as you read, Portium notices what you keep circling back to and sets the next worthwhile paper in front of you - personalised, ready to save or share with a project. For once, the paper finds you.

Good to know

Smart picks are personalised to you - Portium surfaces the pages you revisit and the ideas you keep returning to, so the most relevant pages are offered first rather than a generic list.
