## What is Sutra AI?

Sutra AI helps you read Buddhist scripture with an AI that explains difficult passages in plain language.

Reading the Dhammapada or the Pali discourses and stuck on a line? Just ask. The AI finds the relevant passages in early Buddhist texts, quotes them, explains difficult terms in modern language, and offers perspectives that support meditation and everyday practice.

Main features
- AI explanations of Buddhist scripture and Buddhist terminology
- Questions about the Dhammapada, the Nikāyas and other early Buddhist texts
- Conversational guidance on practice, meditation and inner work
- Difficult passages rewritten in simple words
- Save the answers you care about and revisit them anytime

Whether you are new to Buddhism, studying the sutras, or simply interested in meditation and mindfulness, Sutra AI gives you a calmer, clearer way into the texts.
