What Premium adds — per product

Reference manager

Library, watched

Venue alerts — an email when a journal in your library changes indexing status. Full venue reports — the complete record behind every flag, exportable. Library health check — one report across everything you've saved.

Journal intelligence

Checks, at scale

Batch checks — paste a reference list, get every venue's record at once. Watchlists — follow venues you publish in. Shortlist reports — compare target journals side by side before you submit.

Reading assistant

Reading, unlimited

Longer passages — full sections, not excerpts. Unlimited daily use — the trial's daily allowance removed. Custom output styles — summaries the way you take notes.

How the trial works: every extension is free to install and runs one day automatically, plus two more days once you create your Noterva account — three days in total to try all three. After that, Premium keeps everything unlocked.

Plans

One account. One subscription. Everything unlocked.

Until now, each extension carried its own licence. That ends here: Noterva Premium is a single, account-level subscription — sign in once: your library and reports open on the dashboard from any computer you log in to, and all three extensions unlock on your devices. Existing Noterva Reference Manager (formerly Scholar Vault) premium licences are honoured and folded in, free.

FOUNDING  Founding member offer — our introductory pricing (Monthly ₹299, regular ₹599; Yearly ₹2,999, regular ₹3,999), locked in for your first year at signup. Applied automatically — ends when the first 500 members are in, and we won't extend it quietly.

How activation works today: install any extension and it runs a three-day trial (one day automatically, two more once you register). Premium unlocks all three — the team activates your extension Device IDs, usually within a day of verifying your upgrade.

Two ways to pay, both honest: redeem points — instant, no payment details — or pay by UPI, verified by the Noterva team, active within a day. No card forms, no gateway, no stored payment data. Cancel any time — you keep Premium until your paid period ends, and your data stays untouched.

Students

Students & early-career — 30% off your first Premium

Verify your institutional email, we approve it, and your first Premium is 30% off. Research tooling should be cheapest for the people with the least funding.

Referral

Give a month, get a month

Refer a colleague — when they take a paid Premium, you both get a free month. It doesn't combine with the student discount: you get whichever helps more, never both.

Earn it

Or simply: participate

599 points is a month of Premium, and a few studies earn it. The only "discount" that also advances someone's research.

The loop

Participate in research. Earn Premium. Do better research.

Your community points were always redeemable for cash. Now they also buy the tools: 599 points = a month of Premium, credited instantly, no payout review, no minimum threshold. Take part in a few studies and your research toolkit pays for itself — which is exactly the kind of ecosystem we want to run.

Questions, answered plainly

Premium FAQ

Is there a free plan?
No — Noterva is Premium-only, with a free trial to try it first. Every extension is free to install and runs three days: one day automatically, plus two more once you create your Noterva account. After the trial, Premium keeps all three unlocked. Pay by UPI, or redeem 599 community points for a month (registering and completing your profile already earns you 35).
What does Premium unlock?
Everything: venue alerts across your whole library, batch checks and watchlists, full exportable reports, and unlimited Assistant use with longer passages — across the Reference Manager, Journals, and the Assistant. Your library and reports open on the dashboard from any computer you sign in on; the extensions unlock on your devices.
How does points redemption work?
From your dashboard: choose your plan, confirm, and Premium activates on your account immediately. There's no minimum threshold — 599 points is one month, 3,999 is a year. Points and paid months stack; the subscription simply extends.
How do I pay with money?
By UPI, directly — pay the amount shown on your dashboard, submit the transaction reference there, and the Noterva team verifies and activates your subscription, usually within a day. We deliberately run no card gateway yet: no payment forms, no stored card data, nothing to leak.
How do the extensions know I'm Premium?
Your account carries the subscription. The extension versions currently on the Chrome Web Store unlock by Device ID — so when you upgrade, you list your extensions' Device IDs (shown in each extension's settings) and the Noterva team activates them together with your account, usually within a day. From the extensions' next update, they read your account directly: sign in once, or paste your extension key from the dashboard, and all three unlock across your devices — no Device IDs again.
Does one subscription really cover all three extensions?
Yes. Premium is an account-level upgrade — sign in with the same Noterva account in the Reference Manager, Journals, and the Assistant, and all three unlock. This replaces the old per-extension licences.
I already have a Noterva Reference Manager (formerly Scholar Vault) licence. What happens to it?
It's honoured, in full. Link your device licence to a Noterva account and the remaining term converts to Noterva Premium across all three products — an upgrade, at no cost. Nothing expires early, nothing is repurchased.
How do the discounts work — and will prices quietly go up?
Two discounts, both applied once you qualify — and they don't stack, so you always get whichever helps more: verified students get 30% off their first Premium, and referrals give both people a free month. On price: the founding rate is locked for the period you sign up at. When the founding window (the first 500 members) closes, the list price applies to new members — existing members keep whatever they signed up at until they cancel. We announce price changes; we don't slip them in.
Can I mix points and money?
Yes — use points when you have them, pay when you don't. Months stack; the subscription simply extends.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep Premium until the paid period ends. Your library, your citations, and your data are untouched — no lock-in was the deal, and cancelling doesn't change it. You can export everything at any time.
