Ask Goodnotes, Math Assist, and new handwriting editing capabilities enhance how users work, learn, and create

LONDON, Oct. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Goodnotes today introduced three AI-powered upgrades that build on its legacy of enabling smarter, more flexible ways to take notes and unlock the value within them. With over 24 million monthly active users, Goodnotes is now seamlessly integrating advanced AI where it matters most: right where people are already capturing and exploring ideas, learning new concepts, and staying productive.

 

Unveiled during a livestream event today, the updates build on more than 40 new features the company has brought to Goodnotes 6 in the past year. The new Ask Goodnotes lets users ask questions and get AI-powered answers based on their personal notes, right from within the Goodnotes 6 app. New handwriting editing capabilities make adjusting and reformatting handwriting as simple as typed text, helping users stay in flow as they take notes and develop ideas. And the new Math Assist instantly recognizes handwritten equations, offering quick calculations or suggesting next steps.

“We’re constantly inspired by the sheer volume of ideas and knowledge that our users capture in their Goodnotes notebooks. Our aim with Ask Goodnotes is to give users new powers to interact with their notes, documents, and PDFs, and unlock fresh possibilities for productivity, creativity, and learning,” said Steven Chan, founder and CEO of Goodnotes. “With our new handwriting editing and math features, we focused on how our proprietary machine learning models could be leveraged behind-the-scenes to make everyday note-taking and document annotation more seamless and intuitive.”

Ask Goodnotes allows users to ask questions, get summaries, clarify concepts, and generate interactive quizzes based on their personal notes. The AI assistant draws from all the various content types users may have in their notes, including handwriting, typed text, diagrams, and imported PDFs. Tuned for safety and reliability, Ask Goodnotes’ answers include citations that link back to the source material within the notebook and specify when information is drawn from general knowledge outside users’ documents. Accessible in one tap in any notebook, Ask Goodnotes is thoughtfully integrated in user workflows, including enabling drag-and-drop of answers right into notes and providing custom suggested questions based on document content.

Powered by Goodnotes Smart Ink—the company’s advanced in-house AI handwriting technology—the new handwriting editing capabilities in Goodnotes make it effortless to reflow, align, copy-paste, and otherwise adjust handwriting. These updates build on Goodnotes’ past breakthroughs in its proprietary AI handwriting technology, including the launch of the world’s first generative AI for handwriting with features like Spellcheck and Word Complete back in August 2023. Whether correcting meeting notes on the fly, making space for even more ideas in a mindmap, or reorganizing study materials for better learning, users can now edit and adjust their handwriting as easily as typed text.

Developed in response to the popularity of Goodnotes 6 features such as math handwriting recognition and interactive exam practice features, Math Assist provides instant math solutions and suggestions right within notebooks. Users can get a hand with math simply by writing a line of math followed by an equal sign, enabling quick on-the-fly calculations. For those building their confidence in advanced math including trigonometry and calculus, Math Assist offers suggested next steps for math expressions, system of equations, functions, and more.

These new features are all available as part of Goodnotes’ existing plans: Math Assist and the new handwriting editing features for all Goodnotes users, and Ask Goodnotes at no additional cost for all users with a paid plan (excepting regions with restrictions). They join a growing slate of AI-powered Goodnotes features, including Spellcheck and Word Complete for handwriting, handwriting recognition, math conversion, scribble to erase, circle to select, live audio transcription, and more.

Recognized as Apple’s 2022 iPad App of the Year and one of the “Best iPad apps to boost productivity and make your life easier” by TechCrunch, Goodnotes continues to lead the way in delivering innovative, user-centric features for productivity and creativity.

LEAP Group Relaunches HumanView, a Growth Intelligence System Built to Explain Why Customers Behave the Way They Do

Reimagined from the ground up, HumanView pairs statistical modeling with expert analysts to turn millions of real-world customer signals into business decisions

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LEAP Group today announced the relaunch of HumanView, its growth intelligence service. The new version has been rebuilt from the ground up and now has a dedicated home at leapgroupnetwork.com/humanview.

HumanView analyzes what customers say and do across social platforms, e-commerce sites, review platforms, search behavior and user-generated content, including signals from Reddit, TikTok, YouTube, Meta, Amazon and Walmart+ that general AI tools cannot always access. Because the data reflects unprompted, real-world behavior, it avoids the response bias built into surveys and focus groups.

The service works in three layers. HumanView captures signals at scale, decodes millions of records through validated statistical models such as regression, correlation and clustering, and then relies on experienced analysts to interpret the patterns. Clients receive clear, human-validated insights instead of another dashboard.

“Machines find the patterns. Humans find the point,” said Alan Gilleo, CEO at LEAP Group. “The first version of HumanView showed us how much customers reveal when nobody is asking them questions. This version is built to explain why they act the way they do, and to put those answers in front of everyone making decisions, from product to service to marketing.”

HumanView focuses on three areas:

Growth Intelligence: customer motivations and how people perceive a brand and its competitors

Market and Category Intelligence: product pain points, service friction, unmet needs and competitive gaps

Audience Intelligence: new segments, positioning opportunities and gaps in the market

Every model is designed and validated by data scientists and benchmarked before it informs a recommendation.

LEAP Group is a boutique marketing agency holding company with offices in Louisville, Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Chicago. Guided by the belief that brands should “Market Less. Matter More.,” LEAP gives clients access to specialized experts across its entire network. Learn more at leapgroupnetwork.com.

STEPHEN A. SMITH ADDRESSES WHITE HOUSE DINNER ATTENDANCE, REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO HBCUs AND PROTECTING CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN BLACK EDUCATION

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Stephen A. Smith, media mogul, New York Times bestselling author, and proud 1991 graduate of Winston-Salem State University, is addressing the public discussion surrounding his decision to attend a White House dinner with President Donald Trump, emphasizing his commitment to the long-term financial stability of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

For Smith, the decision was rooted in a commitment to institutions that have educated generations of Black leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and public servants.

“I will always advocate for HBCUs and the students whose futures depend on them,” Smith said. “My reason for attending the White House dinner was to discuss the challenges these institutions face in securing long-term funding and to make the case that corporate America must continue to invest in them.”

Smith acknowledged federal support through the FUTURE Act while expressing concern that political tensions surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) could discourage private companies from supporting HBCUs. He maintains that these institutions deserve sustained corporate partnerships, philanthropic contributions, and public investment.

“If we truly believe in free-market capitalism, businesses should be able to support educational institutions and charitable causes without fear of criticism or repercussions,” Smith said. “HBCUs have made extraordinary contributions to this country. They deserve sustained public and private investment.”

Ashley Christopher, Esq., Founder and CEO of the HBCU Week Foundation, recognized Smith’s advocacy and decision to engage with the administration.

“Stephen A. Smith has been a powerful advocate for HBCUs, using his platform and influence to shine a national spotlight on our institutions,” expressed Christopher, “His continued support of HBCU Week helps advance our mission of connecting students with life-changing educational opportunities, and we are proud to have him as our ambassador.”

Since Smith became an HBCU Week Ambassador in 2019, the initiative has facilitated more than 15,000 on-the-spot college acceptances and raised and awarded more than $150 million in scholarships, according to the HBCU Week Foundation.

As public discussion continues, Smith is emphasizing the importance of ensuring HBCUs have the resources and partnerships needed to educate future generations and expand opportunities for students.
