AI academic search engine for peer-reviewed science
Ask a research question in plain language and get answers synthesized from peer-reviewed studies, with each claim linked to its source paper.
A visual summary shows how the scientific literature leans on a yes/no question, indicating agreement, disagreement or mixed evidence.
Narrow results by study design, sample size, journal quality, publication year and more to prioritize high-quality evidence.
Aggregate findings across many studies into structured summaries that map what is known and where the gaps are.
Private, on-device AI search for everything on your Mac
Files are indexed and processed entirely on your Mac, so your documents, recordings, and screen memory never upload to a cloud AI provider and search keeps working offline.
Query the contents of PDFs, Office and Apple documents, design files, code, images, audio, and video, returning the exact page, line, or timestamp instead of just a filename.
Recall meetings, chats, dashboards, and shared screens that were never saved as files, then jump straight back to the moment you need.
Auto-organize folders with live criteria, find and remove duplicate files, rename files based on their content, and convert documents, invoices, images and videos into structured CSV.
