Bridge vs AC Matrix

Introducing Bridge: a reliable tool to send, transform and receive data between your favourite magic apps. Want to use an impression pad to generate video reveals? Or how about being able to send to your printer app in the background? Imagine - a spectator writes any celebrity on an impression pad. Behind the scenes, Bridge connects this with a printer app, allowing you to reveal the celebrity's name printed in your pocket. Furthermore, Bridge also includes the same cutting-edge AI first introduced in our award-winning apps DFB X and WikiTest to transform your inputs before passing it on to your reveal.  For example: - *Letters to number position in alphabet* - "marc" automatically becomes "13 1 18 3". - *Famous movie of celebrity* - gives the most famous movie starring the actor entered. - *Zip code lookup* - "10010" becomes "New York". - *Emojify* - turn text into emoji. - *Birthday of celebrity* - return the birthday of any famous person. ...or create your own and add any more you can think of! With Bridge AI, Bridge can take that celebrity input, find their most popular film, and pass that on to the printer app instead, printing the poster of that movie! Previously, if you wanted to share data between magic apps, other magic apps have been typically repurposed. But now, using the same, reliable technology that powers WikiTest, Bridge is the first app intentionally developed to share data between your favourite apps. Bridge uses other apps or Shortcuts to pass through data for inputs and reveals. As well as adding support into my own apps, developers of many third party apps either have or have said they will build in native support for Bridge, including PeekSmith, AWP Lumen, Glyphs, TAP - The Architect Of Predictions ...with many more to come. Bridge even includes its own custom Shortcut actions, accomplice mode, input and output APIs to link with other apps, a URL scheme, its own Peek Screen and more. Have one app send text to Bridge, and have another app poll Bridge to link them together. Simply copy your API URL into your favourite magic app to begin using Bridge. - Use Bridge with any existing or future magic app that supports sending or receiving text - Standardised input and output Web API for other apps - Works with iOS Shortcuts - send and push data to and from Bridge, and even change your Bridge AI prompt via Shortcuts - Integrated Peek Screen - Accomplice Web Control Mode - For most uses and integrations, the Bridge app doesn't even need to be open! Note that Bridge AI requires credits or you can use your own self-funded API key. Credits can be purchased in-app if desired. Note also that third party integration features are unlocked via the included one time in-app purchase.

AC Matrix turns your phone into a magic instrument. Everything an audience sees looks like an ordinary phone doing ordinary things. Everything you do to control it is invisible. SLIDE EFFECTS Flash through your own screenshots and clips, full-screen. Because the media is yours, the effect can be anything a phone screen can show — a home screen where the icons gather into one corner, a photo that changes when you turn the phone around, a lock screen that shouldn't exist yet. • Cut instantly, or cross-dissolve over a length you choose • Hold a slide for a set delay before it changes • Let a slide advance itself, so a beat lands on time and not a moment late • Name your slides so a long routine stays readable while you build it TRIGGER IT HOWEVER YOU LIKE Every slide chooses its own way in: a tap anywhere on the screen, a shake of the phone, or a hand gesture seen by the camera. Mix them inside one routine — tap, tap, shake, pinch — so no single tell repeats. AI CLEANUP, ON DEVICE Box out a clock, a notification, a status bar, anything that gives the game away. An inpainting model rebuilds the area from its surroundings, on your phone, and stores the cleaned copy alongside the original. One toggle switches between them. Works on stills and on video, either as a single patch or frame by frame. Cleanup runs in the background with a Live Activity, so you can watch a long job finish from the Lock Screen instead of holding the app open. BUILT FOR PERFORMING • Two-finger swipe down to leave — there is no visible quit button, and that is the point • Swipe right to step back a slide if you need to • The screen stays awake and the status bar stays hidden • Open the app straight into a performance, so nothing is ever seen but the effect LEARN IT BY WATCHING IT Every setting that describes a behaviour over time is shown as a small looping animation, not a paragraph. A "?" next to any control opens the tutorial already scrolled to the right topic. There is a filmed clip of one routine being performed, start to finish, if you would rather just watch one first. PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION AC Matrix has no network code functionality. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is analysed, no account is required. Camera frames are read for hand detection and discarded — never recorded, never saved, never sent. The AI cleanup model runs entirely on your device. Requires iOS 17 or later. Camera gesture triggers need a physical iPhone.
