## What is PDF Scanner?

PDF Scanner: PaperCue turns paper contracts, receipts, leases, invoices, and tax forms into clean, auto-named, searchable PDFs 100% on your device—with zero watermarks and no subscription.

Most scanner apps hold your documents hostage behind recurring subscriptions, cloud logins, or ugly watermarks. PaperCue is built for people who want a fast, private document camera that works offline and respects your ownership.

Start free with up to 3 scanned pages—complete with on-device Vision OCR, smart auto-naming, and watermark-free PDF export. When you need more, unlock unlimited scans and multi-document PDF merge forever with a single $9.99 one-time purchase.

SMART ON-DEVICE DOCUMENT SCANNING

- Automatic Multi-Language Vision OCR: Every scanned page is indexed on your device using Apple Vision with automatic language detection and correction, creating a selectable, searchable text layer inside your PDF.
- Smart Auto-Naming (`YYYY-MM-DD Type – Party`): PaperCue reads dates, document types (Lease, Receipt, Invoice, Contract, Tax, Form, Statement, ID, Letter), and vendor or counterparty names to name your scan automatically—with 1-tap document type swap.
- Full-Library OCR Search: Search across both document titles and recognized text inside every page, then jump straight to the exact page where a clause, vendor, or total appears.
- Multi-Document PDF Merge & Reorder: Combine 2 or more scans in any order into a single searchable PDF packet.

HOW THE FREE TIER & ONE-TIME UNLOCK WORK

- 3 pages free, zero watermarks: Capture up to 3 pages with full on-device Vision OCR, auto-naming, and clean PDF export at no cost. Every exported page is 100% watermark-free.
- Pay once ($9.99 lifetime unlock): PaperCue Unlimited Unlock (`papercue.lifetime`) is a single non-consumable In-App Purchase for unlimited scanned pages and multi-PDF merge forever.
- Your saved scans stay yours: Every document you have already saved remains open to view, search, copy text, and export as a searchable PDF at any time.

100% PRIVATE & ON-DEVICE

- Zero cloud uploads: Camera capture, edge detection, perspective correction, and Vision OCR run locally on your device.
- No account or tracking: Open PaperCue and scan immediately.
