A complete reading workspace
Everything around the PDF.
Nothing between you and the PDF.
Read without browser chrome
A calm surface for papers, books, and long technical documents.
Keep notes beside the source
Every highlight and thought returns to the sentence that created it.
Ask the passage, not the void
Send only the context you choose to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, or Ollama.
Own the file and the reading trail
No Quire account, no document upload, and no proprietary library lock in.
More than a PDF viewer
A reading engine that keeps the evidence attached.
Quire treats the page as the center of the workspace. Notes, answers, and reading controls orbit the document instead of replacing it.
01 · Selection scoped
Ask exactly what you mean.
Select one sentence or a full passage. Quire sends only that context and keeps the response beside the source.
Self attention connects every relevant word directly, without waiting for recurrent steps.
02 · Read your way
Typography that adapts to the reader.
Choose a familiar font, tune the scale, and switch themes while preserving the original PDF.
03 · Return tomorrow
Your reading trail remains.
Highlights, notes, page position, and useful answers return with the document.
Three direct steps
From file to focused reading
in under a minute.
- 01
Open a PDF
Drop in a local file or import a paper link. Quire opens directly to the page.
- 02
Read, mark, ask
Highlight a sentence, add a note, or ask your chosen model for a clear explanation.
- 03
Return with context
Reopen the document and every useful thought is still connected to its source.
Your best reading happens when the page and your thinking stay together.
Local by default
The document remains yours.
Quire reads PDFs from your Mac and stores provider credentials in the macOS keychain. There is no Quire account between you and your library.
- 01No document upload
- 02No library lock in
- 03Local Ollama support
Before you download
Questions from careful readers.
Does Quire upload my PDF?
No. Your documents stay on your Mac. Quire only sends selected context when you deliberately use an AI feature.
Which AI providers are supported?
Quire supports OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, and local Ollama models. You choose the provider and supply the key.
Can I use Quire without AI?
Yes. The PDF reader, highlights, notes, typography controls, and read aloud tools work without a model connection.
Will Quire change my source file?
No. Quire keeps reading preferences and annotations separate, so the original PDF remains intact.
Do I need a Quire account?
No account is required. Download the app, open a PDF, and start reading.
Which Macs are supported?
Quire currently supports Apple silicon Macs running on M-series chips.
