Features

The digital memory of a physical book.

AI reads the page for you. Covers, quotes, highlights, handwritten margin notes; all under one roof, reachable in a heartbeat.

My Library

All your books with their covers in one place. Each book has its own memory, its own moments.

Snap a page, text is ready

AI reads the photo. Printed text, highlights, underlines and handwritten margin notes, each recognized separately.

Reading Moments

Every page is a "moment": quote, note and photo together. AI adds a short summary and automatic tags to each one.

Search everything

Book titles, authors, quotes, margin notes: browse all of it with a single query.

Reading assistant

Chat with AI over the quotes you've saved. It answers like a calm librarian: brief, clear, unopinionated.
