Turn a Dense Academic Paper Into a One-Page Argument Map
You have a paper due for seminar, a highlighter running dry, and a growing suspicion you have read the introduction twice. This strips the paper down to its actual argument: the claim, the evidence, the bits the author is quietly unsure about. One page, no re-reading required.
