Paper in, PDF out,
in about four seconds

Point the camera at a page. It finds the edges, straightens the perspective, removes the shadow of your own hand, and gives you a clean PDF you can send straight away.

Search inside the paper

Every scan is read and indexed. Type a word from the middle of a contract and the page it sits on comes back — in 40+ languages.

Filed where you'll look for it

Folders, tags and dates. Set a rule once — receipts to Tax, payslips to Work — and new scans land in the right place on their own.

A scanner that gets
the boring part right

Sign it, merge it, shrink it under the upload limit, lock it before you send it. The jobs that send people hunting for a desktop app, done on the phone already in your hand.

Photo Import

Import photos from your gallery and convert them into clean, organized PDF files with one tap.

File Import

Import existing files from your device and merge them into a single PDF document.

Three steps, then it's
muscle memory

Step 1

Any angle, any light, on a desk or in your lap. The frame snaps to the page and shoots when it's steady — you don't have to line anything up.

Step 2

It arrives already flattened and brightened. Nudge a corner if you want to; most of the time there's nothing to fix.

Step 3

Share straight to mail, chat or cloud. The file is named from the text on the page, so it isn't Scan_0043 six months from now.

What people say
after the first week

I photographed eleven months of receipts in one evening. Searching for the plumber's invoice took four seconds, which is roughly eleven months faster than the shoebox.

The last scanner I used stamped its own logo across a signed contract I'd already emailed to a client. That was the end of that. This one just gives me the file.

Questions people ask

How does the camera scanning work?

Point your camera at any document. The app automatically detects edges, corrects perspective, and enhances contrast to produce a crisp, readable PDF scan.

What file formats are supported?

Export to PDF, DOC, PNG or JPG. On the way in, the app takes photos from your gallery, existing PDFs, and images from your cloud drive.

Can I merge multiple scans?

Yes. Scan as many pages as you need, drag them into the order you want, and merge the stack into a single PDF before you export it.

Is my data secure?

Scans live on your device and are encrypted in transit when you back them up. Nothing is shared with anyone, and a deleted document is gone from the backup too.

How do I cancel the subscription?

Open the cancel page, pick the store you subscribed through, and follow the two steps. No support call, no retention queue.

Where does my data go?

Into your own account and nowhere else. We never sell your documents and never train anything on them.
