ExplainThisDoc: The Smart Archive Update
Now keep originals, annotate, sign & understand-in one place
ExplainThisDoc has evolved from just explaining documents into a modern, smart document archive. Keep originals, explanations and your work connected. Highlight, annotate and sign. Link related files and personal notes. Archive without AI, summarize on-device with local AI, or get detailed explanations with Pro analysis. New text review lets you compare recognized text against the original, correct it and share it—all in one workflow.
Hey everyone!
ExplainThisDoc started as a side project to help people understand confusing documents. But while building it, I discovered what I wanted for myself: a better version of my giant pile of paperwork. Adding documents was easy. Finding that one contract months later took forever.
That’s what inspired The Smart Archive Update: scan or import, keep the original, and find it again with search, tags and on-device summaries. Deeper AI explanations are there when I need help understanding something.
The idea is simple: “scan and forget” - until you need it again.
How do you deal with your own document pile?
