## What is Marmot Vault?

Marmot Vault turns your iPhone into a smart scanner that actually understands what you capture — and files it where it belongs.

WHY MARMOT VAULT
Most scanner apps stop at OCR and a folder. Marmot Vault reads what you capture, classifies it, files it, and gives you the right AI tools for the job. A receipt becomes part of a money brief. A prescription label becomes part of a health brief. A boarding pass joins a trip brief. The work that used to take a notebook, a folder, and a spreadsheet happens in the time it takes to take the picture.

VAULTS WITH A POINT OF VIEW
Create a vault for any goal — Maldives 2026, Garage Inventory, Q3 Expenses, Family Health — and pick its category at creation. The category drives the AI tools the vault gives you. Receipts vaults open with a Money Brief: total spend, period, top categories with percentages, top vendors, largest charge. Health vaults give you a Health Brief: meds, dosages, providers, refills due. Trip, Home, Identity, Work, and Research each have their own lens.

MONEY THAT ADDS UP
Capture receipts and Marmot Vault detects refunds, deduplicates double-scanned ones, splits charges into 25 subcategories (Grocery, Restaurant, Coffee, Rideshare, Hotel, Subscriptions, Pharmacy, Streaming, and more), and shows it all as charts: a category donut, a daily spend bar, top vendors. Filter pills slice the report by subcategory in one tap.

HEALTH, IDENTITY, TRIP, HOME
Health vaults extract medications and dosages, surface refills due, track providers seen. Identity vaults track expirations, premiums, and renewal triggers across IDs, policies, and contracts. Trip vaults watch check-in windows and document expirations. Home vaults track items by location with QR labels you can print and stick on boxes.

CAMERA & TRANSLATE
Point your camera at foreign text and see translations live on screen. Display Mode flips the translation toward someone else — perfect for menus, signs, and conversations. Dozens of languages.

INBOX FOR EVERYTHING ELSE
Anything you scan that doesn't have a home yet lands in your Inbox. The first time a clear classification appears (receipt, prescription, contract), Marmot Vault offers to spin it out into a named vault automatically.

THE BURROW — YOUR WORKSPACE
A calm home tab with Focus, Tasks, Projects, Calendar, Journal, and Insights — everything across your scans, summarized into one dashboard. Burrow Intelligence answers questions grounded in your actual library, not a model's imagination.

AI THAT WORKS FOR YOU
- Document summaries you can listen to at adjustable speed
- Quality Coach grades your scans and tells you how to improve them
- Mind Maps generated from any document with PNG and SVG export
- Chat with your documents to ask questions and extract details
- Quick Reference Cards for instant offline access to key snippets
- Smart Collections that auto-group scans by rules you choose
- Flashcards generated from highlights for quick study
- AI freshness chips on every artifact so summaries never silently age

SMART SCANNING
Handwriting detection recognizes cursive and print. Auto-section detection splits multi-topic pages. Blank page skipping keeps your library clean. Enhanced PDF export bundles images, OCR text, and annotations into one shareable file.

PRIVACY & SECURITY
Your documents stay on your device and in your private iCloud account. Marmot Vault never sells your data. AI uses on-device models where possible and secure connections only when cloud processing is needed. Sensitive documents (ID, medical, financial) require your explicit consent before any cloud AI runs.

FREE VS PRO
Marmot Vault is free with generous scan limits. Pro unlocks unlimited scans, advanced AI features, and priority support.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-07-25

What's New in 1.3

Your scans now file themselves — and Home has a fresh, calmer look.

AUTO-FILE AT CAPTURE
No more stopping to pick a vault. Snap a document and Marmot Vault sends it to the best-matching vault on its own. Wrong guess? One tap to Undo. Prefer to choose every time? Flip it off in Settings.

SMART ITEMS
Scan a box and Marmot Vault recognizes what's inside on sight — even cables with no labels. It remembers the useful details (connector, length, color, brand) and makes them searchable. Then just ask the Burrow: "What's in my cable box?" or "Do I have a 2m USB-C cable?" and get a real answer.

A REFRESHED HOME
A cleaner Home puts one-tap scanning and your recent documents front and center, with clearer type and a more consistent look across the app.

Plus stability and reliability fixes. Thanks for using Marmot Vault.

### 1.2 — 2026-06-18

Version 1.2 — Stability.

This release focuses on reliability.

• Fixed crashes that could occur when favoriting, renaming, or deleting a scan.
• Improved reliability of iCloud sync and background processing.
• Various under-the-hood fixes for a smoother, more dependable experience.

Thanks for the feedback that drove this — keep it coming.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-05-19

Version 1.1.1 — A scanner that understands.

LENS-AWARE AI
Vaults now have a category that drives the AI tools you get. Pick "Money" and the vault opens with a Money Brief — total spend, period, top categories, top vendors, largest charge — plus a Spend Snapshot card. Health, Identity, Trip, and Home get their own brief and recommended actions.

MONEY VAULT REDESIGN
- Spend Snapshot above your AI Summary — real numbers, no waiting
- Refund detection (negative or "refund" text on a receipt subtracts)
- Duplicate detection so a re-scanned receipt doesn't double-count
- Honest coverage: a "needs amount" chip when scans are missing totals
- 25 subcategories (Grocery / Restaurant / Coffee / Rideshare / Fuel / Hotel / Subscriptions / Pharmacy / Streaming / Gym and more)
- Filter pills to slice the report by subcategory in one tap
- Charts in the expense report: category donut, daily spend bars

SUB-VAULTS FOR TRIPS & PERIODS
Inside a Money vault you can now create sub-vaults — Trip ("Maldives 2026"), Period ("April Groceries"), or Custom — that inherit the parent's lens. Each sub-vault has its own snapshot, its own AI brief, and an optional date window.

CATEGORY-FIRST VAULT CREATION
"New Vault" now leads with category as the primary axis. Pick Money / Health / Identity / Trip / Home / Meetings / Research / ID & Cards / Custom and the icon, color, AI tools, and name suggestions follow. A small "AI you'll get" footer confirms each pick.

INBOX REPLACES THE GENERIC SEEDED VAULTS
First launch now creates a single Inbox for unfiled scans instead of seven generic catch-all vaults. The first time a clear classification appears, Marmot Vault offers to spin it into a real, named vault.

UNIFIED AI FRESHNESS
Every AI artifact (Today's Brief, Decisions, Follow-ups, Brainstorms, AI Summary) now shows an orange "N new" chip when new scans have arrived. One tap on "Refresh AI" re-runs them all. Today's Brief auto-fires after 3 new scans.

LENS-AWARE PULSE CARD
Pulse reads in each lens's language — Money Pulse (Quiet / Steady / Heavy spend / Spike), Health Pulse (Stable / Active care / Needs attention), Trip / Home / Identity each with their own status set.

THE BURROW
A calm new workspace tab with Focus, Tasks, Projects, Calendar, Journal, and Insights pulled from your scans. Burrow Intelligence answers questions grounded in your actual library.

INVENTORY & QR LABELS
Scan box contents, organize by location, print QR labels so you always know where things are. Home vaults track items by room with model numbers and warranties.

CAMERA & TRANSLATE
Live camera translation in 20+ languages, with a Display Mode that flips the text toward someone else.

MEDICATION LABELS
Scan a prescription or supplement and we extract active ingredients, dosage, route, warnings, and allergens automatically.

REFINED
- Brand-new Home with activity rings, Explore tiles, and a single calm hero
- Glassmorphic floating navigation: Camera / Settings / Scan / Burrow / Search
- 4-tab Scan Detail (Text, AI, Tools, Chat) with collapsible sections
- Enhanced PDF export with images, OCR text, and annotations baked in
- Live theme preview, settings search, refreshed onboarding with live demos
- Vault Gallery with day-grouping, pinch-zoom column count, OCR search, AI search FAB

RELIABILITY
- iCloud sync diagnostics: see exactly which records the mirror has processed
- "Rebuild from iCloud" archives your local store before re-downloading
- Race-condition fixes throughout the camera and recording paths
- Better lenient date parsing for reminders
- AI Summary no longer leaks prompt instructions into the user-facing card on local fallback
- Fully localized in Spanish

PRIVACY
- Sensitive documents (ID, medical, financial) require explicit consent before any cloud AI runs
- On-device AI for summaries, reminders, and Burrow answers wherever possible
