Syncing to Readwise
How it works

Three steps.
Zero transcribing.

From photo to Readwise in under a minute — even for an entire chapter's worth of pages.

01

Photograph

Snap your highlighted pages with your iPhone. HEIC, JPEG, and PNG all work — no special setup needed.

02

Drop & extract

Drag photos into Highlite. Claude's vision AI reads every marked passage in parallel — a whole chapter in seconds.

03

Review & sync

Edit inline, add personal notes, apply tags. One click pushes everything to Readwise under the right book.

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

Built for the way avid readers actually work — a chapter at a time, on a Mac, with a Readwise account.

Batch processing

Drop a whole chapter at once. Highlite queues and processes four images simultaneously for speed.

Inline editing

Click any highlight to edit it before it syncs. Fix a misread word without reprocessing the image.

Notes & tags

Add a personal note or tag to any highlight. Synced directly to Readwise's note and tag fields.

Highlight library

Every book you've processed lives on the home screen. Full-text search and tag filtering across your whole library.

Fully local

No account. No cloud. Your library stays on your Mac. API keys are encrypted in macOS Keychain.

iPhone native

HEIC photos from your iPhone convert automatically using macOS — no extra libraries or dependencies.

"Your highlights never touch our servers. API keys are encrypted in macOS Keychain. Everything runs locally on your Mac."
