Planned: Zero Knowledge · Bring Your Own Cloud · No App Backend

EveryDoc
Your most critical documents. Designed to stay off someone else's server.

EveryDoc is in development. It will scan your IDs, passports, and insurance cards, encrypt them on your device with AES-256-GCM, and alert you before they expire. Your documents will be stored only in your personal iCloud.

The Problem We Solve

Why not just Apple Notes or Google Drive?

Most scanner apps and cloud drives treat your most sensitive identity documents like ordinary vacation snapshots or corporate spreadsheets.

Vulnerability 01

The Photo Library Trap

Searching through 14,000 photos when the car rental counter asks for your insurance card. No expiration alerts, no classification, and absolutely no encryption.

Result: Expired cards & frantic scrolling
Vulnerability 02

The Big Cloud Leak Risk

Most cloud scanner apps upload your raw passport scans to company servers and unencrypted cloud buckets. If their backend gets breached, your identity is exposed to the world.

Result: Third-party data custody hazard
The Standard

The EveryDoc Standard

EveryDoc will scan on-device, encrypt before writing, and store everything in your own iCloud app data container. Even if Apple or EveryDoc were subpoenaed, there would be no plaintext to hand over.

Goal: no plaintext outside your device
Planned features

Five Pillars of Sovereign Document Storage

Being engineered from the hardware layer up so your documents will be quick to retrieve, simple to renew, and unreadable to outsiders.

Pillar 01

Smart On-Device Scanning & OCR

Will scan with the native camera, using hardware-accelerated edge detection and automatic perspective correction.

Guided 2-Sided Capture

Will scan the front and back of driver's licenses and insurance cards, with side-by-side verification before saving.

On-Device Machine Learning

Will extract expiration dates, document numbers, and categories with 1-tap copy. No images will leave the device for AI processing.

Apple Vision Kit Android ML Kit Planned: no cloud processing
Pillar 02

Sovereign BYOC

Bring Your Own Cloud

EveryDoc will have no servers, no databases, and no user accounts. Encrypted ciphertext will sync directly to your private iCloud App Data folder (or Google Drive App Data on Android).

24-Word BIP-39 Recovery Phrase

Your cryptographic key will belong only to you. You will be able to export cross-platform .evryarchive encrypted backups anytime.

Planned: direct Apple CloudKit sync

Multi-Page & Selected Page PDF Export

Interactive Page Picker

Will export multi-page cards or legal binders into single PDF files. You will be able to choose "All Pages" or pick individual sides (e.g. front-only or pages 1 & 3).

Pure In-Memory Decryption

Will merge decrypted pages in memory and wipe them from device storage as soon as the iOS or Android share sheet closes.

AirDrop & Print Planned: no decrypted files left on disk
Pillar 05

Biometric Lock & Privacy Armor

  • Will auto-lock with Face ID / Touch ID after a timeout you choose (Immediate, 1 min, 5 min).
  • Will let you switch between zero-knowledge encrypted mode and standard mode in Settings without re-scanning.
  • Will ask twice before a vault reset, to protect against accidental data loss.
Planned: keys rooted in the Secure Enclave

For Power Users & Cryptographers

Security & Technical Architecture Deep-Dive

The client-side cryptographic design EveryDoc is being built on.

Every image, card front/back scan, and document note will be encrypted with its own random 256-bit AES key using Galois/Counter Mode authentication. A captured iCloud ciphertext file would not reveal the key to any other document in your vault.
