It seems like you might be referring to "PaperKit," which is a framework introduced by Apple to enhance the markup experience across various apps. PaperKit is used in applications like Notes, Screenshots, Quick Look, and the Journal app, providing a canvas for drawing and adding markup elements such as shapes, images, and text. It is designed to offer a comprehensive markup experience and is available on both iOS and macOS.
If you are interested in learning more about PaperKit, you can check out the session titled "Meet PaperKit" from WWDC 2025.
