## What is Plainspeak?

Plainspeak decodes confusing paperwork in about two seconds.

Point your camera at any document you don't fully understand - a lease, a medical bill, an insurance letter, a contractor quote - and Plainspeak gives you the plain-English gist, the one catch buried in the fine print, the key facts and deadlines, and a ready-to-send reply.

HOW IT WORKS
- Scan a document (multi-page supported). Text is read on your device.
- Plainspeak explains what it actually says, flags THE catch, and pulls out amounts and dates.
- Get a drafted reply you can copy and send - dispute a charge, request itemization, decline a renewal.

YOUR VAULT
Every decoded document is saved and fully searchable, grouped by type - Lease, Medical, Insurance, Bills.

ASK YOUR DOCUMENTS
Ask "What's my deductible?" or "Can my landlord raise rent mid-lease?" and get an answer with a citation back to the exact page you scanned.

DEADLINES
Every response-by date, renewal, and due date becomes a tracked deadline so a 14-day window never silently expires.

FREE TO USE
Decode up to 5 documents a month with the full result card, unlimited saving and search, and deadline tracking - free.

PLAINSPEAK PRO - $0.99/month
- Unlimited decoding
- Ask across your whole vault
- Reply tone control and PDF export

Never sign something you don't understand again.
