## What is Scira?

Scira is an AI research assistant for asking questions, exploring sources, and keeping research organized from your iPhone.

Start a thread, choose the sources Scira can use, and get cited answers you can inspect. Attach images, files, and documents for context, use voice input when typing is slower, and keep related work together with projects. Scira syncs with your scira.ai account so your threads, preferences, usage, and artifacts stay available across devices.

Features:
- AI chat and web research with cited sources
- Source controls for web, academic, Reddit, GitHub, stocks, crypto, YouTube, and more
- Image, photo, document, CSV, DOCX, XLSX, and PDF attachment support
- Voice input for chat prompts
- Projects for organizing related threads and files
- Optional notifications and Live Activities while Scira works
- Privacy and legal links available in app
