What makes this different

This isn't a summary tool. It's a clarity engine.

  • Explains the why, not just the what
  • Uses plain language without dumbing things down
  • Shows examples that make things click
  • Says when something is unclear or missing
  • Respects that you're intelligent — just human

Best for

  • Reviewing contracts before you sign
  • Understanding medical test results
  • Making sense of HR or workplace documents
  • Learning new technical or financial concepts
  • Reading dense articles without re-reading them five times

Explanations are educational — not legal or medical advice. When something matters, we help you ask better questions, not replace professionals.

"This explains things the way I wish people did."
