  • Source Citations

    Every answer references the exact file and passage it came from. Click any citation to open the original document.

  • Ask Across Your Library

    Search across PDFs, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, Markdown, HTML, EPUB, and more. Drop a file directly into chat for instant scoped answers.

  • Two Chat Modes

    Researcher mode answers strictly from your indexed documents. Assistant mode handles open questions with optional web search, always opt-in.

  • Flexible Model Choice

    Run the bundled local model or connect your own Ollama instance. Choose Small, Balanced, or Quality to match your hardware.

Translate Documents Offline

Open any file from your library or upload a new one, and get a full translation powered entirely by your local model. Nothing sent to the cloud.

  • World Languages

    Translate to Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, and many more, using the same local model you use for chat.

  • Multiple Translation Tones

    Choose Natural for flowing prose, Formal for professional documents, or Literal for word-for-word fidelity.

  • Formatting Intact

    Headers, tables, lists, and code blocks all survive translation intact, preserving the original structure.

  • Export Ready

    Download as Markdown or plain text, or copy the full translation to clipboard in one click. Works with PDFs, DOCX, and any file in your library.

Built-in domain expertise

Specialist modes that tune how the AI reads and analyzes your documents. All local, all private, selectable per chat.

  • Financial Analyst

    Interprets budgets, invoices, and financial documents with precision. Flags cost drivers and downside risk.

  • Legal Counsel

    Reads contracts and agreements carefully. Surfaces key clauses, obligations, and liability allocation.

  • Medical Advisor

    Helps interpret health records, clinical notes, and insurance documents. Separates documented facts from interpretation.

  • Security Auditor

  • Technical Specialist

    Understands code, specs, and technical docs. Precise with terminology, architecture tradeoffs, and feasibility risks.
