A complete path from local files to a result you can inspect.

On Mac, SourcePath treats the library, reader and analysis result as long-lived, connected objects. On iPhone, local reading, questions, summaries and targeted extraction for one local document, and remote Mac control remain clearly separated data spaces—not one upload-and-chat flow. When a request does not include the full text, its actual coverage stays with the result.

MAC / IPAD / IPHONE

One SourcePath, three devices, three clear roles.

Mac handles deep research work, while iPad offers a lighter touch workspace. iPhone is both an independent pocket library and a place to ask about, summarise or extract information from the current document, with secure Mac control rolling out in stages. All three betas have passed TestFlight review.

  1. Mac
    Supported

    Full workspace

    Work through an entire local library.

    Built for sustained, in-depth material work: turn local folders into a library, then read, search, analyse across documents and inspect citations in one place. It can also run tasks you confirm on iPhone.

    • Batch import from local folders
    • Cross-document analysis with coverage notes
    • Citation review and open export
    • Run analysis confirmed on iPhone (staged rollout)

  2. iPad
    Supported

    Lighter workspace

    The Mac workflow, pared back for touch.

    It keeps the library, reading and analysis path, with a simpler interface for touch and landscape use—suited to lighter importing, long-form reading and focused analysis.

    • Files and local-network import
    • Touch-first library and long-form reading
    • Light analysis with your own AI account

    TestFlight beta open

  3. iPhone
    Supported

    Pocket library and Mac control

    Read one document here. Dispatch a larger scope to Mac.

    Material on the phone stays on the phone; Mac document bodies stay on the Mac. Capture, search and read locally, connect your own AI service account to ask about, summarise or extract information from this document, or browse an encrypted Mac title catalogue and confirm a scoped analysis.

    • Share sheet, Files inbox and local full-text search
    • Search, favourites, collections and full-screen reading
    • Ask about, summarise or extract information from this document with your own AI service account
    • See actual coverage and citations when one request does not include the full text
    • Confirm the Mac, library, scope, provider and model before execution (staged rollout)

ONE PUBLIC LINK · 3 PLATFORMS

Mac, iPad and iPhone share one TestFlight public link. Open it on the device where you want to install SourcePath.

Installation guide

Originals and local libraries do not sync automatically. Once a Mac is connected, iPhone receives only an encrypted catalogue, task state and results through your private iCloud.

Three objects with three clear jobs

  1. 01

    Library

    Point to folders you already own and preserve their structure and ongoing changes.

  2. 02

    Reader

    Search, resume, inspect the outline and related material in the context of the source.

  3. 03

    Analysis result

    Keep cross-document conclusions, citations, coverage and source revision together for review.

ANALYSIS / 06

Six analysis modes for six kinds of task

The names are not the value. Each mode needs a clear input, result and path for review.

  1. 01

    Guide

    See what is in the library and where to begin reading.

  2. 02

    Summary

    Compress the main ideas while keeping citations and coverage boundaries.

  3. 03

    Extraction

    Pull facts and structured items from a batch with their sources.

  1. 04

    Diagnosis

    Inspect structure, gaps and useful next steps across the library.

  2. 05

    Topic map

    Find themes, relationships, agreement and disagreement.

  3. 06

    Custom

    Define the result around your task instead of a generic chat prompt.

Verification

An important conclusion should have a path back.

SourcePath keeps the conclusion, citations, coverage state and source revision together so you can perform the review.

Three groups of material point to two recurring themes, while preserving one disagreement for further review.

This block shows how a conclusion, its citations, coverage state and source revision hang together: every claim can be followed back through its anchor to a specific passage in a specific document.

AI results still need your review. Citations and coverage notes provide a path for checking; they do not guarantee correct reasoning.

Capability boundary

Import, parsing and AI are stated separately.

This table describes the full Mac workspace. Discovering a file type does not automatically mean it can be parsed and analysed; iPad and iPhone also have the platform boundaries shown above.

Data boundary

Local is the default path. Sending requires your confirmation.

Parsing, indexing, reading and library management happen on each device. Only after you confirm an AI action does the required material go from the iPhone, iPad or Mac that actually runs it to your chosen AI service.

01LOCAL

On your device

Imported originals, full indexes and reading history stay on their respective devices. They do not enter a SourcePath content server.

Confirm an AI task

iPhone questions, summaries and information extraction only process the current document. Mac analysis first shows the device, library, scope, provider and model. Nothing runs without confirmation.

02Direct from device

Your provider

Required material goes from the device that runs the task to the service address shown in the interface, without passing through SourcePath servers.

START / 01

Quick start

The Mac, iPad and iPhone betas are now open through one Apple TestFlight public link. Once installed, begin with non-sensitive sample material and learn the product shape designed for your device.
