Immerse Research vs BTI Siddur

Immerse is a sacred-text reader built for research: read every tradition side by side, collect and annotate passages as you go, and turn them into organized, exportable compilations. It's an offline library of 400+ sacred texts — and a set of tools for building your own thematic compilations from across every tradition in it. BUILD COMPILATIONS Long-press any passage to select it, then add it to a compilation. Compilations are your collections: gather passages from the Qur'an, the Bible, the Upanishads, the Buddhist sutras, the Bahá'í writings and more under a single theme — Prayer, Justice, The Nature of the Soul. Your compilation grows one passage at a time, across every tradition in the library. ANNOTATE AS YOU READ Add notes to any selection. Create cross-references linking a passage in one book to a passage in another — the connections you notice, kept where you found them. When you build a cross-reference, tap Suggest a match to get AI-ranked related passages from across the whole library, each with a one-line reason. Everything anchors to the exact text you selected. EXPORT AND SHARE Export any compilation — or a set of cross-references, laid out side by side by tradition — as a Word document, PDF, spreadsheet, or Markdown file, complete with your notes. Or share your compilations or cross-references with a private link: anyone with the link can open them or save a copy into their own library. Ready to send, publish, or study from. A COMMUNITY OF READERS Make any compilation public and other readers can find it in Discover — preview its passages, then import the whole collection into your own library with one tap, and follow the readers whose work you want to keep up with. A living body of interfaith study, built by the people using it. THE LIBRARY 400+ complete sacred texts, all offline. Full-text search across every one of them at once — type a whole question and AI finds the passage that answers it, right alongside your keyword matches. Listen to any passage read aloud.

The digital Siddur of Beit Tefilah Israeli — Hebrew, Phonetic, English, and Español, side by side or one at a time. What sets this siddur apart: it weaves traditional liturgy together with contemporary poetry, songs, prayers, and readings — a living prayer book, not a fixed one. New material is added every week, so the siddur keeps growing alongside the community. BTI Siddur brings the full prayer book to your phone, covering Shabbat services and holiday liturgy: search any prayer by title, keyword, theme, or occasion; save favorites and personal notes; adjust text size and switch between light and dark mode. Live Service Mode — the flagship feature: the service leader navigates, and every participant's screen follows automatically. No more "what page are we on?" — just scan a QR code and pray together. Free to use. No account required.
