Among others, Docear offers a single-section user-interface that allows the most comprehensive organization of your literature. With Docear, you can sort documents into categories; you can sort annotations (comments, bookmarks, and highlighted text from PDFs) into categories; you can sort annotations within PDFs; and you can view multiple annotations of multiple documents, in multiple categories, at once. A ‘literature suite concept‘ that combines several tools in a single application (pdf management, reference management, mind mapping, etc.). This allows you to draft your own papers, assignments, thesis, etc. directly in Docear and copy annotations and references from your collection directly into your draft.

CiteDrive
CiteDrive is a cloud-first, collaborative, BibTeX-native reference manager designed by and for Overleaf, LaTeX, and R Markdown users. It was designed from the ground up to stay out of your way so you can focus on writing.
CiteDrive was born out of a shared desire among our team, friends, and colleagues that managing references felt so cumbersome compared to today's consumer-grade tools and collaborative editors. Worse, there were no really good solutions that were truly designed for LaTeX and R Markdown authors, rather than being an afterthought.
CiteDrive continues to focus on refining and simplifying the experience of finding references and citing as you write. After some failed experiments, the first end-to-end solution for Overleaf and R Markdown users was tested in the fall of 2021, and quickly evolved into the platform that exists today.
