Who it's for

Built for anyone who wants to stay on top of it.

Family, single household or self-employed — the core problem is the same: too much paper, too little overview. PaperPeace adapts to whatever you need it for.

Families

Medical bills, school forms, contracts — the whole household's paperwork in one place, shared with your partner. Both of you see what's still open at a glance.

Shared folderMedical billsSchool forms

Decluttering & moving

Finally get rid of the binder tower: sorted automatically, searchable in seconds, as plain PDFs. No forced subscription, no lock-in.

Planning ahead

Powers of attorney, directives and insurance filed securely and shared with siblings — so the moment it counts, everyone finds what matters.

Securely sharedEncrypted exportLocal & GDPR

Self-employed

Collect receipts all year, keep private and business apart — and send them encrypted to your accountant at year's end. No accounting subscription.

Without your own server

The control of your own server. Without the server.

Until now you only had two choices: hand your most sensitive files to someone else's cloud service — or run a server yourself, with all the setup, updates and security holes that come with it. PaperPeace dissolves that dilemma. You get documents kept in sync across multiple devices and people — and you decide for yourself whether, and to whom, you entrust your data.

No server of your own

No installation, no updates, no security patches — and no open port to the internet that you'd have to lock down.

No third-party DMS cloud

No account with a provider that manages your files. All of the intelligence runs on your device.

You draw the line

Local only, on your home network, in your cloud or shared with the family — your choice, changeable anytime.

Your storage location — your choice, changeable anytime
Local iCloud Drive Dropbox Google Drive OneDrive FTP · SMB · WebDAV soon

Most people have long since entrusted their photos and documents to Apple — knowingly, once. PaperPeace doesn't force you to ask that same question of trust over and over again. You keep the choice — all the way down to: no one but you.

Intelligence on your device

Sorted automatically. No outside AI.

To recognize documents automatically, many apps send them off to a cloud AI service. PaperPeace doesn't. Text recognition, classification and learning from your corrections all happen entirely on your iPhone, iPad or Mac — no upload, no third-party service reading along.

On-device recognition

Document type, tags, correspondents and the text of scanned pages are all recognized right on the device — nothing is uploaded for analysis.

Learns with you — privately

PaperPeace gets better with every correction. The learned model stays on your device, and nothing is uploaded for training.

No account, no profiling

No PaperPeace account, no tracking, no cloud LLM. Your content is never turned into profiles.

GDPR-compliant On-device AI No tracking Made in Germany
Features

Feed it, sort it, find it.

From a stack of paper to an organized library: PaperPeace brings structure to your document chaos — feed it, sort it, find it. So you can focus on the things in life that matter, instead of shuffling paper.

01 · Feed

Drop it in — from anywhere.

Scan a document with your iPhone or iPad, send it straight to PaperPeace via the Share sheet from any app — or set up a folder that PaperPeace watches and automatically imports new documents from.

Share sheet Folder watching Scan with camera
02 · Sort

It sorts itself.

PaperPeace recognizes document types, tags, correspondents and people automatically. Thanks to built-in machine learning, it keeps learning and getting better. Recognition happens entirely on the device — your data is never sent over the internet for processing.

Auto-tags Correspondents Document types On-device ML
03 · Find

Search the words, not the filename.

Just start typing — PaperPeace searches every letter, including the text inside scanned documents. Quick filters let you narrow by type, tag, correspondent or date, putting the right document in front of you in seconds.

Full-text search Quick filters Tags & correspondents By date
04 · Integrated

Right where you already look.

If you like, PaperPeace integrates deeply into iOS and macOS: find documents straight from Spotlight, ask Siri for them — and if you want something more custom, build your own workflows with Shortcuts.

Spotlight Siri Shortcuts
05 · In sync

The same state on every device.

The same library on iPhone, iPad and Mac — the same tags, the same state, kept current in the background. You choose where it lives: locally, in iCloud Drive or with your own cloud provider. And through a shared folder you can easily work on the same documents together — perfect for family, your partner or a small office.

Never miss a deadline again.

Contract renewal, warranty or a tax deadline: set a follow-up and PaperPeace reminds you in time. Pinned documents show up as a widget right on your Home and Lock Screen.

07 · Share

Share securely — encrypted.

Need to send your tax records to your accountant? PaperPeace exports your documents into encrypted archives with strong AES-256 encryption — so sensitive files arrive safely.

08 · Format

Your data stays yours.

PaperPeace never stores your raw data in a proprietary format — it sits as plain, ordinary files at your storage location. So you can search and open it anytime, even without PaperPeace. The metadata it generates lands right alongside in easy-to-read Markdown files.

FAQ

Good to know.

The most important questions about everyday use, storage and privacy — answered briefly.

Can I use PaperPeace without any IT skills?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. No server, no account, no setup: install the app, scan or share in your first receipt, and PaperPeace takes care of recognising, sorting and tagging. If you can use a photos or notes app, you can use this.
Can I share PaperPeace with my partner or family?
Yes. Through a shared folder — for example in iCloud Drive — you both see the same library with the same tags and the same state. Either of you can file and find, so it's not just one person keeping track of the household paperwork.
Is PaperPeace any good for the self-employed?
For many people, yes. You collect receipts throughout the year, keep private and business apart with tags, and export an encrypted bundle for your accountant at year's end — without an expensive accounting subscription. It is not, however, a legally audit-proof archive (such as GoBD).
Do I need my own server?
No. PaperPeace needs no server, no database and no installation on a machine. The app runs directly on your iPhone, iPad and Mac — all of the intelligence included. There's nothing for you to host, update or secure against attacks.
How does PaperPeace sync without a server?
Through your storage location. PaperPeace puts your documents as plain, ordinary files in the folder you chose — locally, in iCloud Drive or with your cloud provider. Your devices sync themselves through those files, in the background. There's no central point reading along.
Which storage locations are supported?
Locally on the device, iCloud Drive (including shared folders for family or office), plus Dropbox, Google Drive and OneDrive. Storage on your own network share or your own server — via FTP, SMB or WebDAV — is in the works.
Can I get to my documents while I'm out and about?
Yes — as long as your chosen storage is reachable on the go, such as iCloud Drive or your cloud. Unlike a self-hosted server, you don't have to open a port or set up remote access for it.
Does a document ever leave my device for analysis?
No. Text recognition (OCR), classification and every other kind of recognition run entirely on your device. Nothing is sent to a server for processing — not even to us.
What happens if I stop using PaperPeace one day?
Your documents stay right where they are as plain, ordinary files at your storage location, with the metadata alongside in easy-to-read Markdown files. No proprietary format, no lock-in — you can open and search everything anytime, even without PaperPeace.
