SafePulse is a private, local-first browser with a built-in AI agent that runs entirely on your device. Browse the web with the help of a personal AI assistant โ€” and a council of specialised agents โ€” without sending a single query to the cloud. No accounts. No tracking. No subscription. Ever. โ€” FEATURES โ€” โ€ข On-device AI Agent Ask questions about any page, get summaries, extract concepts, and have natural conversations about what you're reading. The model runs locally on your iPhone โ€” your prompts never leave your device. โ€ข Council of Agents Spin up multiple specialised agents โ€” Researcher, Critic, Coach, Writer, and any custom role you create. Configure each one's name, colour, icon, and behaviour. Switch instantly while you browse. โ€ข Highlighter Pens Five colour-coded highlighter pens turn the web into your personal notebook. Highlight anything, then ask the agent about that exact passage with one tap. โ€ข Notebook Bookmarks Saved pages aren't dumped in a flat list. They land in a ruled-paper notebook view alongside your colour-coded highlights, so research stays organised the way you actually think. โ€ข Inline Agent Sheet Pull up the agent as a bottom sheet over the current page โ€” no tab switching, no losing your place. โ€ข Multi-tab Browsing & Speed Dial Familiar tab management with a clean speed-dial home screen for the sites you visit most. โ€” PRIVACY BY DESIGN โ€” Everything stays on your device. SafePulse uses no analytics, no advertising SDKs, no telemetry, and no third-party tracking. Bookmarks, highlights, and chat history live in local storage you control. โ€” FREE FOREVER โ€” No subscription. No in-app purchases. No paywalled features. SafePulse is a free browser โ€” that's the whole product. Built for people who want a smarter web without trading their privacy to get it.
