ArchiveSorter vs Smart Archive by Software EZ

Archive Sorter turns scans, photos, and shared files into an automatically organized document archive — powered by on-device AI, with no account and no tracking. Scan paper documents with your camera or import files from Photos, Files, Mail, and other apps. The app recognizes text with OCR, classifies each document using AI running directly on your device, and files it into your personal folder structure with a meaningful name and date. • Scan documents or import from any app via the share sheet • Full-text OCR for searchable content • Automatic classification, naming, and filing • AI runs on-device — your documents never leave your device • Review area to verify and correct classifications • Ask questions about your archive with source citations • Support for personal and household document archives • Works with local storage or iCloud Drive Requires a one-time AI model download (~2.5 GB) on first launch. iCloud synchronization also requires an internet connection. All document processing then runs entirely on your device.

Smart Archive takes care of tedious document filing – fully automatically, on iPhone, iPad and Mac. Scan or import a document once. Smart Archive then does the rest: it creates a meaningful name, detects the document type, finds the right folder and adds suitable tags. You save time and concentration instead of working through file names and folder structures. FROM PAPER TO ARCHIVE IN FOUR STEPS • Scan conveniently – choose "Automatic" and the camera captures each page as soon as it is positioned correctly. Multiple pages in one go, no internet required. • Review the pages – rotate, reorder or discard pages before the document is saved. • Let AI do the filing – name, document type, sender, date, amount, folder and tags are recognised automatically. • Find it in seconds – search every recognised word and combine folders, document types and tags. PRIVACY BUILT IN • Text recognition (OCR) runs locally on your device – scanning, filing and searching work without internet. • For the analysis, the AI included in Smart Archive receives only the recognised text – never page images or files. No setup, no API key of your own. • Without an internet connection the document is still saved and can be named and filed by hand. • Business: your own instructions for the AI.
