What files does it read?
PDFs, Word files and text, plus scans, which become searchable with Apple Vision optical character recognition. Redlines export to Word with tracked changes or to PDF.
How large a folder can it handle?
One window holds the whole folder, so you rank, group, ask and organize across every file at once. The paired library the team reads every day holds 707 documents.
Is it on iPhone and iPad?
Yes. Pair with iPhone using an eight-character code, or sign in with a free Epiphani account, and your library opens at the page you left. Email hello@pagehawk.com for the TestFlight invite.
Does it work on Windows?
Compare inside Microsoft Word and the free browser compare tool run anywhere. The full studio is the Mac app, on macOS 15 or later with Apple Silicon.
Does it do Bates numbering and redaction?
Yes. Redaction removes the text under every box and strips the metadata. Bates numbering burns your prefix and number into every page and writes a JSON manifest and a CSV load file (BegBates, EndBates, Pages, OriginalFile, StampedFile). Originals are never modified.
