## What is Parch?

Parch turns your iPhone into a private document scanner — and it does the whole job on the device.

Scan any document — receipts, contracts, forms, notes — to a crisp, searchable PDF. Parch reads the text with real on-device OCR, so your documents never touch a server. No account. No cloud. Nothing leaves your iPhone.

WHY PARCH
• Real OCR, on-device — searchable, selectable text, and it works offline
• Clean scans — automatic edge detection, perspective correction, and page reordering
• Export anywhere — PDF and editable .docx, all generated on-device
• Private by design — your documents stay on your iPhone
• No ads, ever

FREE TRIAL, THEN PARCH PRO
Scan your first 5 documents free. Parch Pro unlocks unlimited scanning and every export option — monthly or annual.

Built for anyone tired of cloud scanners that upload their paperwork to someone else's server. Scan, read, export. Privately.
