Features

Everything ARKVOR
can do for you, offline.

A snapshot of every capability shipping in ARKVOR today — how you ask, what it knows about you, and how it behaves when seconds matter. Nothing here needs internet, an account, or the cloud.

How you talk to it

Type, speak, or point a camera.

ARKVOR answers the way you'd ask a friend standing next to you — in text, in your ear, or by looking at what you're looking at.

Conversational chat

Ask follow-ups, change context, interrupt. ARKVOR remembers the thread of what you're working through — so the second question doesn't require re-explaining the first.

"How do I treat a deep gash?" → "What if I don't have gauze?" → "How long can I wait before stitches?"

Read-aloud answers (TTS)

One tap reads any response aloud. Sentence-by-sentence prosody, sanitized for speech, with Premium macOS voices automatically preferred. On the hardware device, Piper-quality voice ships built-in.

Useful when your hands are covered in blood, flour, or engine grease.

Photo identification

Snap a mushroom, rash, plant, animal track, wound, or piece of gear. ARKVOR looks at the image and tells you what it's seeing — and what to do about it — without uploading your photo anywhere.

"Is this mushroom safe?" "What plant is this?" "Is that a spider bite?"

Conversation history

Every chat is saved on the device so you can pick up where you left off. Delete a thread any time — data never leaves the hardware, so only you can read it.

Come back after a storm passes and keep working through what you started.

Personal context

Knows who you are.
Knows what you have.

Generic answers aren't useful when you're on the ground. ARKVOR remembers the facts about you that change an answer — your allergies, your gear, your location — and uses them every single turn.

Custom memory

Tell ARKVOR your allergies, medications, conditions, group composition, skills — once. It remembers across every conversation and uses the facts when they matter (e.g. flags a medication before recommending it).

"Penicillin allergy" → ARKVOR will never suggest amoxicillin again.

My Place

Enter your nearest town, hospital, ranger station, elevation, terrain, and nearest water. ARKVOR grounds every directional, evacuation, and "where do I go?" answer in real facts — not invented places.

"Where's the closest ER?" → the actual hospital you listed, not a guess.

My Gear

Check off what you actually carry — lighter, paracord, multi-tool, first-aid kit. ARKVOR prefers solutions that use what you have and stops suggesting tools you don't.

Water purification answer changes based on whether you have tablets, a filter, or just a pot.

My Kit — saved answers

Star any response for instant recall. Tourniquet steps, CPR protocol, child dosing — save once, find fast, works with no signal and no search.

Saved answers are accessible in two taps during an emergency.

When seconds matter

Built for the worst moment, not the best.

Most AI tools are built for search. ARKVOR is built for the moment you can't calm down enough to type a good query.

Emergency mode

A red Emergency button on every screen opens one-tap chips for the ten most critical scenarios: severe bleeding, CPR, choking, unconscious, burn, snakebite, allergic reaction, fall, hypothermia, lost.

No typing. No query-crafting. Tap the scenario, get the steps.

Guided workflows

For procedures with more than five steps — wound closure, splinting, water purification, CPR — ARKVOR walks you through one step at a time. You confirm you've done each one before the next appears.

No scrolling, no re-reading — just the step you're on, and a checkpoint.

Safety gates & grounding

Known-dangerous advice is hard-blocked — never "suck out snake venom," never "pop the blister," never invent a species it hasn't actually read about. Every response carries a confidence chip: green (high), yellow (moderate), red (verify).

Grounding score is visible under every answer so you know when to trust.

Multi-mode responses

ARKVOR detects whether you're asking casually, following a how-to, or in an active emergency — and adjusts tone, length, and formatting automatically. Emergency answers lead with the critical step. Conversations stay conversational.

"How's foraging in fall?" reads very differently from "He stopped breathing."

Works anywhere, trusts no one

Offline by design. Private by default.

ARKVOR was built so that no grid failure, cell outage, or data-broker breach can take it from you.

100% offline operation

No internet. No cellular. No Bluetooth tether to a phone. Every byte of knowledge and every token of every answer is computed on the device itself.

Works at the bottom of a canyon, in a blackout, on a boat, in the Grand Canyon.

PIN lock & recovery phrase

Set a PIN on first boot. Forget it? A single recovery word resets access — no email, no support call, no account required. The knowledge base stays intact through reset.

Lost the device in the woods? Without the PIN, nobody reads your chats.

No accounts, no telemetry

No sign-up, no sign-in, no analytics pings, no cloud sync. Not even anonymized usage data. ARKVOR doesn't know who you are — and neither do we.

Whatever you ask stays between you and the hardware in your hand.

Display modes for any light

Dark, light, daylight (max-contrast for direct sun), and night (red-tint, preserves night vision). One tap to cycle through — chosen deliberately, not stolen from the OS.

Night mode keeps your pupils dilated so a headlamp doesn't blow out your vision.

Stacked together

One device. One moment. All of it.

You slice your hand opening a can. You type "I just cut my hand bad" — or tap Emergency → Severe Bleeding. ARKVOR reads back the tourniquet sequence in your ear while you apply pressure. It knows you're in Estes Park, that the nearest ER is six miles south, and that you don't have a CAT tourniquet in your kit — so it tells you what to improvise with instead.

That's not five features. That's one device acting the way you'd want a friend to.

  • Emergency chip fires the right workflow
  • TTS reads steps while your hands are full
  • Place grounds the "nearest help" answer
  • Gear changes what the steps tell you to use
  • Custom memory avoids your allergies
  • Every token runs on the device — no signal needed
