What makes it different
Distinguishes between official standards and conventions, marking which formats are real standards versus employer or school conventions
Private by design—photos processed entirely in browser, never uploaded to servers
Honest about technical limits—measures what software can measure, not expression, shadows or issuer house rules
Zero-friction design: open, draw, and share in seconds with no setup or accounts
Local-first architecture: all sketches stay on your Mac, nothing leaves unless you ask
AI integration runs through your own subscription with no proxying of prompts
