One workspace. Different ways to experience it.01
Watch your sources.
Animated presenters, on-device voices, and source imagery turn reading into a broadcast.
02
Direct the explanation.
Ask questions. Change the tone, length, or focus. Choose the response that plays best.
03
Keep the show.
Replay your segment, save the video, or share it through the system’s familiar controls.
Research becomes something you make
Don’t just watch.
Direct the show.
Start with an article, a paper, or an EPUB-length source. Crunch it, ask a question, then shape the answer for the audience you have in mind.
A technical briefing. A study segment. A more conversational explanation. Even a short product introduction. The conversation is your script editor.
Your selected words. Your choice of voice.
The presenter and source imagery, together.
A finished video—not a screen recording.
Keep the performance.
Leave the generation waits out of the video.
Example creative directionsYou set the brief
“Make this an executive briefing.”
“Now explain it for someone new to the topic.”
“Keep the point. Make it shorter.”

A broadcast with a research workspace behind it
All the depth.
None of the tool-hopping.
Discover on the left. Watch and read in the center. Research on the right. The source, the performance, and your questions belong in the same place.
02 / TECHNICAL
The details that matter.
Methods, assumptions, and deeper explanations for the questions a quick recap leaves behind.
03 / STUDY GUIDE
Something to come back to.
Concepts, definitions, and a review-ready structure for spending more time with what you’re learning.
Have a specific question?Focus guides the Crunch around what you want to know. Follow citations back to supporting passages, and keep notes with your research.
Your interests. On air.
Channel surf.
Follow your curiosity.
Robot Radio turns the feeds you follow into a continuous lineup of broadcast segments. Browse curated stations, tune into fresh stories with Now, or build your own mix in My Station.
Mind’s Eye adds animated presenters, layered sets, and cycling source imagery. On-device speech supplies the voice; context-selected music connects the stories.
Want the full article instead of the brief? Open the source and switch to sectioned narration. The deeper reading experience is still right there.
Not another empty prompt box
Bring the real web.
And the long reads.

Supported YouTube, Vimeo, Reddit, and podcast sources
Available text, imagery, media, and transcripts depend on the source. Source media remains attributed to its publisher.
Personal doesn’t need to mean cloud-first.
Core workflows need no account. Your library stays on your device. Supported research analysis and speech generation run locally, and you choose what to share.
Apple Intelligence features require compatible hardware and Apple Intelligence enabled. Online discovery, source retrieval, embedded media, and optional connected services use the network.
A little more context
Good questions.
Start with a source you care about. There’s more than one way to experience it.

Created by Rich Fallat, bringing a character artist’s eye to the way information is presented.
Read the making-ofWhat is Mind’s Eye?
Mind’s Eye is Crunch’s real-time procedural 2D animation system. It combines authored presenter artwork, lip sync, subtle motion, layered sets, source imagery, and broadcast graphics. The artwork is prepared; each particular segment is assembled from the material being presented.
Can I make a video from a research response?
Yes. In the Research Assistant’s Broadcast workflow, select a response or the transcript and present it with an animated host. The finished segment can be replayed, saved, and shared. Generation waits and user pauses do not become dead time in the exported video; the voice’s intended pauses remain.
Can I change the length, style, or speaking voice?
Use conversation to request a different length, tone, focus, or audience, then select the response to broadcast. Choose from the app’s available speaking voices. A requested duration is a creative target; the actual spoken length depends on the text and voice.
How do the answers stay connected to the source?
Crunch works from a structured, summarized representation of the material. Executive, Technical, Study Guide, and Focus offer different ways to work with it. Available citations link back to supporting passages. Generated answers can still contain mistakes; use the source to check important claims.
What’s the difference between radio and an audiobook?
Robot Radio creates shorter, anchor-style reports from your feeds and stations. Article audiobook playback stays with the longer source in navigable sections. You can move from the report to the original article and then into deeper narration.
Which devices and system versions do I need?
Mind’s Eye is built for iOS 27, with experiences across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro. Apple Intelligence features require compatible hardware and Apple Intelligence turned on. Consult the App Store listing for current requirements on each platform.
What if a source, image, or transcript is unavailable?
Sources differ in what they make accessible. A podcast may not publish a transcript, an embedded video may have restrictions, or a page may not provide usable images. Reading and supported media remain available through the source view. For a problem report, include your device, system version, source URL, and what happened.
