KEY DETAILS YOU CAN CHECK GEESI can identify useful details already written on the page, including dates, deadlines, amounts and actions. Each detail links back to the passage it came from, so you can check the source yourself. If the answer isn’t on the page, GEESI tells you: “This page doesn’t say.” No guessing. ASK THIS PAGE Ask questions about what you scanned: “When is this due?” “What do I need to bring?” “Does this mention a fee?” “What am I being asked to do?” Answers are grounded in what the page actually says. 40 LANGUAGES → ENGLISH GEESI translates text from 40 supported languages into English, including Spanish, French, Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Urdu, Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Swahili, Amharic and many more.
