Your documents have stories. Now you can hear them. OneScribe turns every receipt, contract, ID, and letter you scan into something you can actually use — read, understood, searched, and exported. All of it happens on your iPhone. NEW — TALK TO YOUR DOCUMENTS Ask a question out loud and hear the answer back. Voice conversation runs entirely on your device: on-device speech recognition, on-device AI, on-device speech synthesis. Ask "when does this warranty run out?" while you're still holding the box. WHAT IT ACTUALLY DOES Scan with the camera or import from Files. OneScribe reads the page, works out what it is, and builds a Data Card designed for that specific document. Receipt? Every line item, tax, tip, and total. Contract? Deadlines, renewal windows, and the clauses worth a second look. Prescription? Dosage, refills, and the prescriber. Boarding pass, W-2, wine label, lab result, lease, vehicle title — 83 Data Cards across 70+ document types. Not a wall of OCR text. Structured information you can search, sort, and act on. PRIVACY IS THE ARCHITECTURE, NOT A SETTING Every other scanner uploads your documents to understand them. Your tax returns, your medical records, your contracts — sitting on somebody else's hardware. OneScribe runs its AI on your iPhone through Apple Foundation Models. There's no account to create. We never see your documents. Your library syncs across your devices through your own iCloud — to you, never to us. BUILT FOR HOW YOU ACTUALLY WORK • Ask your whole library questions in plain English • Chat with any document in any of 7 personas, from Just the Facts to Deep Dive • A daily briefing that surfaces what needs attention before you go looking • Proactive alerts before warranties lapse, returns close, and documents expire • 19 smart export modes — Calendar, Contacts, PDF, CSV, tax package, expense report, property binder • 14 Siri shortcuts, so you can ask without opening the app • Natural-language search across everything you have ever scanned MADE FOR THIS iPHONE iOS 26 exclusive. Liquid Glass throughout. Scan something. Then ask it a question.

About

Features
Read full description

WHAT CLAIR MIND IS A private, local-first notes app. You capture a thought, it gets filed and titled for you, and over time you can see how your notes connect. Notes, notebooks, tasks and search all work fully offline and on-device. SIGNING IN — PLEASE READ The app offers Sign in with Apple and Sign in with Google only; there is no password-based login, so there are no demo credentials we can supply. Please tap "Sign in with Apple" and use your own Apple ID — account creation is instant, free, and requires no payment. Everything except the AI features works WITHOUT any account. You can install, capture notes, create tasks, browse notebooks and search with no sign-in at all. The AI features require an account because each request costs us money per call and is metered per user. Signing in is free and includes 1,000 words of AI per month at no charge. WHERE TO FIND EACH FEATURE - Capture a note: the round "+" button, bottom right of any tab. Type, then Save. The note lands in "Unsorted". - Create a task: same "+" button, then tap the checklist icon at the bottom right of the sheet to switch from note to task. - Ask AI: the "Ask" tab, centre of the bottom bar. Type a question about your notes. Requires sign-in. Past conversations are behind the history icon, top left of that screen. - Connections: open any note, then tap the flower icon above the note body. - Notebooks: the "Notebooks" tab. Tap any notebook to see its notes. - Tasks: the "To-Do" tab. Tap a list to open it; tap the circle on a row to complete it. - Your activity, plan and settings: the "Me" tab, then the gear icon, top right. FREE VS PRO - Free, after signing in: the entire app, plus 1,000 words of AI per month. - Pro (auto-renewing subscription): a much larger monthly AI allowance and voice capture (the microphone in the capture sheet and in Ask AI). - The paywall appears when the free AI allowance runs out, and from the "Unlock AI with Pro" row on the Me tab. - Restore Purchases: Me tab → gear icon → Account. ACCOUNT DELETION Me tab → gear icon → Account → Delete Account. It is a press-and-hold confirmation, then the account and its server-side data are removed. PRIVACY Notes live on the device. When you use an AI feature, the relevant note text is sent per-request to our AI provider to generate that one response; it is not stored server-side and is never used for training. This version adds analytics covering the first-run setup flow only, including a screen recording of onboarding with all typed text and images masked; recording stops before you reach your notes. Both are declared on the privacy label and in the app's privacy manifest, and described at https://clairmind.ai/privacy.
