Understand any official letter,
in plain language.
Snap a photo of a confusing government, tax, legal, or medical letter. Plainova tells you what it means, when to act, and exactly what to do — in the language you read best.
Built for newcomers, seniors, and anyone who reads English as a second language.
What Plainova does
More than a scanner — an answer.
A general chatbot won't warn you about a scam or catch a buried deadline. Plainova is built for high-stakes mail.
Plain-language explanation
What the letter actually says, in clear everyday words.
Never miss a deadline
The date you must act by, pulled out and put front and center.
Step-by-step checklist
The concrete actions to take, so nothing gets missed.
“Can I ignore this?”
A clear verdict: act now, deal with it soon, or just file it.
Scam detection
Flags the red flags of a fake notice and how to verify it.
36 languages
Read the whole explanation in the language you're most comfortable in.
Ask about your letter
Follow-up questions answered, grounded in your specific letter.
Zero-knowledge privacy
Saved letters are encrypted so only you can ever read them.
How it works
Three steps, under a minute.
Take a photo
Snap the letter — one page or many. A crumpled envelope in bad light is fine.
Get a plain explanation
Plainova reads it and explains what it means, the deadline, and any risks.
Know what to do
Work the checklist, ask follow-up questions, or translate it — and act with confidence.
Private by design
Your letters are the most private mail you get. We treat them that way.
Letters you save are encrypted on your device with a key made from your password — before they ever reach us. We can't read them, and neither can anyone else who got hold of our systems. Most letters aren't stored at all: they're explained, then forgotten.
