Assistant
AI works for you, on your key, and waits for your go-ahead.
You add a provider’s key in the settings. The assistant fills in book details, cites its sources, suggests how to sort. Nothing is applied until you choose. Calls are billed by the provider, at its rates.
Six providers, your own account with them.
OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, Z.ai, Kimi, MiniMax. The key is encrypted on our servers and only shown masked; it’s private to you in this space, an owner can’t borrow it. You fetch the model catalog of your key and pick one. A chat-app subscription is not an API key.
Book details filled in, sources attached.
Enrichment reads the metadata, the file name and a bounded excerpt of the book (16 KiB at most: title pages, chapter titles, colophon). The proposal comes with its sources and waits for your review; you pick the fields. A field you corrected by hand is locked for later runs. A web search can complete it, with the URL and consultation date of each source.
A librarian who talks about your books.
Ask a question, attach a book and its version. The assistant answers with the sources it received and can suggest filters to open in the library. It can group duplicates, spot missing volumes, fill a collection, set tags, prepare a version or move to the trash; every action waits for your confirmation. The conversation is private, even to the space owner. A call with an uncertain outcome goes to review; it isn’t retried at your expense.
Without a key, three checks stay free.
Check missing volumes, find duplicates (same file, same ISBN, or same title and author), your library in numbers. They read the whole library and run on demand from the Series page.
FAQ
Can I start without an AI key?
Yes. Importing, reading and organizing your books doesn’t need a key. Add one whenever you want the assistant to fill in their details.
Is AI included in the subscription?
No. You use your own key, and your provider charges for AI calls at its own rates, on top of your library subscription.
What does the AI provider receive?
The metadata, the file name and an excerpt of at most 16 KiB, chosen to identify the book. Never the whole file.
