No accounts, no tracking. PRIVACY FIRST Your photos and extracted content are stored on your device and synced through your private iCloud container — only you can access them. The only external communication is Claude AI analysis (which you initiate). There are no user accounts, no analytics, no ads, and no data collection. You provide your own Claude API key — we never see it. Requires a Claude API key from Anthropic (https://console.anthropic.com). API usage costs are determined by your Anthropic account.
