You can think of Stempad as a Notion for science. It's the world's first true pen-and-paper alternative to fast scientific writing. Switch between different forms of technical visualization with the ease of a stylus and the convenience of your keyboard.
Tl;dr: Stempad is an editor that makes it easy to do fast scientific writing. Take notes, write papers, collaborate in real-time, share your work with the world, and more. Try it out at https://www.stempad.io/editor.
🛑 The Problem
Handwriting (via paper/tablet/board), a medium that is often substandard, is currently the only viable way to do fast or impromptu scientific writing.
► Students often resort to text editors unoptimized for science, such as Notion or Word, to take notes and write assignments.
► Scientists use PowerPoint, wrestle with slow and expensive legacy software, and resort to handwriting to take notes, create write-ups, or make presentations.
► Professors often upload low quality scans of their messy handwritten class notes.
• There are many more examples like these!
🔬 Stempad To The Rescue

I'm thrilled with this app's performance; it's swift and handles everything I throw at it. The interface is clutter-free, which I appreciate, and the color scheme is both unique and visually engaging, @ralphrouhana !
I adore the idea of fusing contemporary technology with the tactile sensation of pen and paper! It appears that this could lead to much more effective scientific documentation. I'm eager to watch it develop!
It echoes useful to be able to effortlessly transition between several types of technical visualization. How does it manage big datasets or intricate diagrams? I wish you luck using this novel strategy!
This does appear perhaps a really clever way to handle scientific writing! Combining keyboard and stylus input could greatly speed up the procedure. I'm excited to see your innovative work in action. Congratulations!
Can users insert complex diagrams or sketches directly into the app, or do they need to import these from other software?
Congratulates on launches!
Hey @ralphrouhana
Stempad is like a digital notebook for scientists. It lets you write and draw like on paper, but with the power of a computer. You can easily switch between writing, drawing, and adding data. It's like having a smart whiteboard that you can carry with you.
Congrats on the launch of Stempad!
How does it compare with traditional text editors when it comes to handling scientific equations? Does Stempad support LaTeX or any other equation languages?
Damn! Writing in it would be smooth. And to think, one can write anything in it.
Looks useful for not just scientific writing but any kind of notes.
I really liked the try section on the landing page! cool work! congrats on the launch!
OMG OMG such a pretty graph(the butterfly one).
As an engineering student, I love it.
Is it possible to show the graph by turning the code in the inapp like the graph from the Python code shown in the thumbnail?
awesome
Awesome! Excited to see how it transforms classrooms and inspires the next generation of innovators! 🚀✨
Wow, Stempad looks incredible! Combining the ease of a stylus with keyboard convenience is brilliant.
Hey Ralph,
How does it handle complex scientific diagrams or equations compared to traditional text editors?
Congrats on the launch!
Wow, this sounds super promising, @ralphrouhana! The whole idea of combining handwriting with tech for scientific writing is genius. I can totally see how this could make life a bit easier for students and researchers. Love that you’re addressing the issues with current tools! Also, that discount is a sweet deal—perfect time to try it out! Can't wait to see how it evolves!
How one can insert into the block those sketches, graphs etc.? I managed only text. How can I change it? 😅 Is it a part of the higher plans?
