Can I try KnowFi for free?+
Yes. The free version gives you 5 scans with every feature, including free text and “Type with Me”. All you need is an account and a confirmed email address. No payment details, no subscription. Once the scans are used up, you can continue with KnowFi Pro. The free version is available once per email address.
What is included in KnowFi Pro?+
Everything: KnowFi explains single and multiple choice practice questions with answer and reasoning, and drafts model answers for open questions, straight into your notes field if you like, or at your own pace with “Type with Me”.
What is KnowFi for?+
For practice and understanding: past exams, worksheets, practice tests and study quizzes. KnowFi shows you why an answer is right and where it is in your materials. In exams, the rules of your university or exam provider apply. Where AI tools are not allowed, do not use KnowFi.
How does “Type with Me” work?+
KnowFi prepares an answer. You type any letters and insert that answer character by character. When you pause, KnowFi waits. Backspace removes characters you have inserted; they reappear as you keep typing. After the last prepared character, you can continue in your own words. Escape ends the mode.
How long does my access last?+
Your access lasts three months. KnowFi Pro costs €24.99 for that entire period, not per month. The subscription renews for three months at a time. You can cancel in your account before the end of the term.
What happens after 500 requests?+
500 requests are planned for your three-month study phase. There is no automatic stop at request 500. Under our fair use policy, we may limit your account beyond 500 requests. You will be notified before any restriction.
How do I read the answer in the menu bar?+
The menu bar icon shows the answer: the dot stands for A, one arc for B, two arcs for C and three arcs for D. For multiple choice, KnowFi shows individual symbols: bell, bolt, flag and star stand for the options from left to right. Filled symbols mark the correct answers. One click opens the question and its reasoning.
What do I need to use KnowFi?+
A Mac with macOS 14 or later, an internet connection and a KnowFi account. New accounts include 5 free scans. KnowFi supports Macs with Apple Silicon and Intel. After installing, you choose your materials and your shortcut.
What happens to my materials and my screen?+
KnowFi captures your screen when you start an analysis. The screen image and text from your selected materials are sent to the AI services involved. KnowFi does not store this content in its database. Processing by the AI services is subject to their data policies.
Can I rely on every answer?+
AI can make mistakes too. Use the reasoning and your materials to check answers. That is exactly where the learning happens: knowing not just what is right, but why.
