The notes you never reopened, the PDFs, the voice memos: share them with your assistant once. Ask later, in your own words, and the answer opens the original note. What you saved is there the moment you need it. No ads, and nothing to sell you: no sponsored answers, no commissions, and a direct line to the founder. It reads only what you send it. No inbox access, nothing to connect, and new people on a thread wait for your OK. It never sends, buys or books on your behalf. One plan covers up to six of you, each archive private. And it is yours to see, export and delete: your recordings, photos and files stay in your own iCloud, encrypted by Apple, and we never train AI models on what you save. You already know how: share a note or a PDF, leave it a voice memo, or CC or forward an email. WHAT YOU CAN DO — Ask anything about your own life. "What did Jordan say about Tokyo?" "Where did I park on Tuesday?" "What was that restaurant my brother mentioned?" Your Equerry searches across every note, email, voice memo, and photo you've sent it, and answers with the source. — Forward anything by email. Every account gets a personal inbox at mail.getequerry.app. Forward a receipt, a newsletter, a shopping list, a flight confirmation — it lands in memory in seconds, with a push back so you know it arrived. — Set up Routines that do the work for you. Routines are little assistants-within-the-assistant. A Morning Brief that summarizes what matters. A Watcher that pings you when a topic you care about moves. A Reminder that keeps context with the nudge. A Meeting Prep brief that lands before your next meeting, built from your calendar and what you've saved. A Custom Routine you describe in plain language. — Save from anywhere on your iPhone. If you can forward an email, you already know how to use it. Forward, share, snap, speak, paste — that's how you talk to your Equerry. MEMORY YOU CAN TRUST You can see everything Equerry remembers, and delete anything, anytime. Tap any saved note to see exactly what was extracted from it. Open Settings → Your memory for a full searchable list of remembered facts. Source chips in chat show which memories the answer came from, and let you flag anything that isn't right. PRICING Start exploring with a one-time demo. Then $39.99/mo or $329/yr.

Your recordings, photos and files stay in your own iCloud. The text of what you save and the email you CC is kept on our servers so it can be searched.

We show no ads, and nothing you save or ask is used to advertise anything to you. Details: getequerry.app/privacy. AN ASSISTANT WHO KNOWS YOU The word "equerry" means the personal attendant to royalty — the person who manages the household, the schedule, the correspondence, the little things and the big ones. Everyone who had one relied on them. Equerry gives that to you, in your pocket. Subscriptions auto-renew through your Apple ID unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.
