Plica

Scan a page, clean it up and let Plica read it: it tells a receipt from an invoice, a contract or an ID, and pulls out the total, the date or the IBAN, each with its confidence. All of it happens on the device, every page is stored encrypted, and there is no account and no cloud.

Not on the stores yet. In internal testing on TestFlight and closed testing on Google Play. Not publicly listed on either store yet.

Interactive recreation

Walk a sample page through Plica: filter it, read its text, and see what Plica’s own rules find in it.

Runs Plica’s own document-recognition rules and image filters, ported to the browser, on one of the app’s sample documents. Text recognition is simulated: the app reads the page on your device with Apple Vision or ML Kit. Nothing leaves your browser.

See how Plica turns a page into facts it can stand behind, each with a confidence and sensitive data masked.

Why it exists

A private document scanner that reads the page on your phone.

A scanner sees the most sensitive paper a person owns — contracts, medical letters, bank statements, IDs — and the usual way to add intelligence to one is to send that paper to a server. Plica is built on the opposite rule: the documents stay on the device, encrypted, and anything clever happens there too or does not happen.

What it does

The parts that matter.

  • 01

    Scan, clean, recognise

    Multi-page capture or photo import with automatic cropping, colour, greyscale and black-and-white filters, and text recognition you can search across everything you have scanned.

  • 02

    Insights that show their confidence

    Receipts, invoices, contracts and IDs are recognised, and totals, VAT, dates, IBANs and tax numbers come out as cards with a confidence on each. Sensitive numbers are masked.

  • 03

    Act on it

    Export a searchable PDF, copy a total or an IBAN, or put a due date in your calendar.

  • 04

    Locked, and offline

    Face ID, Touch ID or the device passcode can lock the app. There is no account, everything works offline, and deleted documents wait thirty days before they are erased.

How it was built

Recognition and AI that run on the phone

Pages are captured with VisionKit on iPhone and ML Kit’s document scanner on Android, flattened and filtered on the device, and read with Apple Vision or ML Kit text recognition. Plica’s own rules then classify the document and extract its fields, each with a confidence. Summaries and “Ask this document” use Apple Intelligence or Gemini Nano where the phone has them, and otherwise quote the document’s own sentences. Pages, thumbnails and text are stored with AES-256-GCM in an encrypted database whose keys stay in the keychain or keystore. Plica runs no server of its own.

Where it stands

BETA

Plica 1.0 is in internal testing on TestFlight and in closed testing on Google Play, and has not been submitted to App Review yet. It is free with ads outside capture and editing; Plica Pro, monthly or yearly, removes the ads and adds summaries, questions about a document and high-quality PDFs. Nothing is publicly listed yet, so there is no store link here.

We do not publish download counts, ratings or revenue figures for any product. Nothing here has been on a store long enough for one to mean anything. Privacy information for Plica.
