AI THAT RUNS WHERE YOU CHOOSE

AreaderZ lets you decide where the intelligence happens:

• On-device - With Apple Intelligence, AreaderZ uses Apple's Foundation Model right on your device. Summaries work offline. Nothing ever leaves your Mac or iPhone.
• Fully local - Connect to Ollama, LM Studio, oMLX, llama.cpp and more running on your own machine. Private, free, and under your control.
• Your own key - Bring your own key for any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Your key is stored securely, encrypted in Apple Keychain, and never shared with us.

NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED TO USE

No sign-up and no usage quota. We don't collect your browsing history, article content, or API keys. There is no AreaderZ server in the middle of your reading.

WHO IT'S FOR

• Avid web surfers who frequent their favorite news sites, blogs, newsletters
• Researchers and students racing through papers and long reads
• Readers of foreign-language news who want instant, natural translation
• Privacy-conscious users who won't send their reading habits and history to a third party cloud (we use iCloud to store your data privately and not on our server)
• Anyone with Apple Intelligence who wants AI that works offline

GETTING STARTED

Install, open the app once to enable the extension in Safari, and pick your provider. On Apple Intelligence devices you're done - no key, no setup. Otherwise paste one API key or point AreaderZ at your local model.

Note: On-device AI requires a device with Apple Intelligence. Apple M3 or iPhone 16 and above recommended. Local and bring-your-own-key (BYOK) modes require access to a compatible server or provider; availability and costs depend on the service you choose.

Read faster. Translate anything. Keep your reading to yourself.
