AI Lens: Explain Anything
Point your camera at anything, or upload a photo or PDF. AI explains it, sums it up and answers your questions.
What do you want?
AI answers come from the photo or document and the AI's general knowledge, not a live internet search. Check important details, and ask a professional for medical, legal or money decisions.

Privacy and accuracy
PDFs are read in your browser; only the text (or, for scanned PDFs, one page image) is sent to our AI provider to write the answer, and nothing is stored by us. The AI uses the material plus its general knowledge; it does not search the internet live. Check important details yourself, and ask a doctor, lawyer or financial adviser before making decisions.
Tips for better answers
Take photos in good light and fill the frame with the object. For long PDFs, the first ~40,000 characters are used, so upload the most important part.
Frequently asked questions
Is AI Lens free?
Yes. Free, with no signup.
Can it read handwritten notes?
Clear handwriting usually works well. Take the photo straight on and in good light.
Does it search the internet?
No. It explains what is in your photo or document using AI's general knowledge. It does not browse the web live.
Is my document stored?
No. PDFs are read in your browser and only the text needed for the answer is sent to the AI provider. We don't store it.
Can it answer in Hindi?
Yes. Choose Hindi or Hinglish in "Answer in".
