Docusy — the document scanner that edits what it reads.

About Docusy

Docusy is the document scanner that edits what it reads. Most scanners hand you a locked image and stop there. Docusy reads every word in your scan and lets you change it — tap a word to correct, replace, or rewrite it, and the edit takes on your document’s own font and colour, so it looks native rather than pasted on. That one capability is the wedge: a scanner that edits, not just captures.

Around it sits the full toolkit. Scan with a rebuilt camera that detects the edges, corrects the perspective, and enhances the image — and now captures two-sided IDs and book spreads too. On-device reading makes every scan searchable and editable, with Live Text on the page. Mark it up — highlight, stamp, and truly redact — then summarise a page or have it read aloud, all on your device. Translate recognised text into any language your device supports, with the layout kept intact (iOS 18+). Pull the merchant, date, totals and line items off a receipt and export them as CSV. Export to PDF, JPG, PNG, CSV or plain text — and, on iOS 26, to Word and Excel, where detected tables become real rows.

Scan a receipt. Sign a tenancy agreement. Fix a typo in a form. Mark up a contract, black out the sensitive lines, then archive it. Lock it behind Face ID, and export an encrypted PDF when a document is sensitive. Docusy works in 17 languages, including full right-to-left layout for Arabic and Persian, across iPhone, iPad and Mac — with a redesigned scanner and, on bigger screens, a sidebar and editing toolbar. One purchase covers them all.

Everything runs on your device. No accounts. No servers. No internet required. No ads, no watermarks. We can’t see your documents because we never receive them. Made in Australia by WhiteLake.

Quotable lines

The wedge — “Docusy is the scanner that edits what it reads. Tap any word in a scan and change it — and the edit matches the original font and colour, so it looks native, not pasted on.”

Privacy — “Scanning, reading, data extraction, translation and the AI summary all run on your device. There are no accounts and no servers — your documents never leave your phone.”

Redaction — “Black out anything sensitive and it’s actually gone — Docusy bakes the redaction into the export, so what you removed can’t be recovered.”

On-device AI — “Ask Docusy to summarise a page and the summary is written on your device — free, cached, and it never leaves your phone. (iOS 26)”

Translation — “Translate a scanned document into any language your device supports, with the original layout kept intact — and nothing ever leaves your phone. (iOS 18+)”

Word / Excel export — “Export a scan to Word or Excel and the tables Docusy detects come through as real rows, not a flat picture. (iOS 26)”

Apple-native — “One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac — with a redesigned sidebar and editing toolbar on bigger screens. Docusy handles documents the way Apple apps should.”

Fact sheet

For reviewers

Docusy needs no account and no sign-in — install it and start scanning. Nothing is gated behind a login because there’s no login to begin with.

Docusy is free to download on the App Store. Promo and offer codes for the premium features are available on request — email armin.ahmadi@gmail.com and we’ll send some over. A TestFlight build is available on request if you’d like to try upcoming features early.

A few things worth trying first, because they show what makes Docusy different:

• Edit a scanned word. Scan a printed receipt or letter, tap a word, and retype it — watch it keep the original font and colour.
• Mark up and redact a page. Highlight and stamp a contract, then draw a box over a sensitive line and export — the blacked-out text is gone, not just hidden.
• Summarise a page on-device (iOS 26). Open a page and tap Summarise — the summary is generated on the device and never uploaded, and it’s free.
• Scan a two-sided ID or a book spread. The rebuilt scanner composes both sides of a card onto one page, or splits a spread into two.
• Translate a scan in place (iOS 18+). Translate recognised text into any language your device supports, with the original layout kept intact.
• Turn a receipt into a CSV. Scan a receipt; Docusy reads the merchant, date, totals and line items, and exports them as CSV.

We’d genuinely value honest feedback — cons included. If something feels slow, confusing or half-finished, tell us; that’s more useful than praise. No conditions attached: it’s not in exchange for coverage. And you’re welcome to shoot your own screenshots.
