Ask your own library. Get answers with the page they came from.
Auto-Reader turns the PDFs, books, documents and spreadsheets on your phone into a private research assistant. Ask a question and Ask AI answers from your files only, citing the passages it used, so you can check every answer in seconds. Made for researchers, lawyers, students and anyone at work who lives in documents.
Your files stay on your phone
No account, no upload. Your library is read on your device, and with cloud features switched off Ask AI, text recognition and translation run on the phone itself on supported devices. Contracts, case files, research papers and course readers never leave your hands, which makes it suitable for confidential material.
Answers you can verify
General chatbots answer from the internet and sound sure even when they are wrong. Ask AI answers from the documents you chose and points to the exact passages, so you can open the page and read the source yourself. Ask about one file, or search across every book and document in your library at once.
Who uses it
- Researchers: ask across papers, books and reports to find where a method, finding or quote appears, then summarise a chapter or compare sources.
- Lawyers and legal teams: find a clause, a date, a party or an amount in contracts and case files, and see exactly where it is written.
- Students: search your textbooks and lecture PDFs before an exam, get a hard passage explained in simpler words, and look up terms in the offline dictionary.
- Employees and professionals: pull figures from reports and spreadsheets, find a policy in a handbook, and catch up on a long document you set aside.
Catch me up
Coming back to a book or a long report after a week? Catch me up gives you a short recap of what you have read so far, so you can carry on without rereading.
A full reader, not only a chat box
Highlight, sign, fill forms and shrink large PDFs. Scanned pages are made searchable with built-in text recognition, so Ask AI can use them too. Translate a document into 100+ languages as you read, or switch to the text to speech reader and listen with word-by-word highlighting when your eyes are tired.
