Big Book via LLM

Ask the Big Book anything

Coming Soon — App Store

The AA Big Book on your iPhone — ask questions in plain language and find any passage instantly. Answers come from the text, not the internet. On-device AI means your questions never leave your phone. No account. No tracking. Just you and the book.

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

A private, offline companion for the Big Book — built on Apple's on-device AI.

💬
Natural Language Q&A
Ask the way you think — "What does the book say about resentment?" or "Where are the Promises?" The AI finds the answer in the text, not the internet.
🔍
Passage Search
Find any passage fast — by phrase, by topic, or a half-remembered line. "Something about the sunlight of the spirit" will get you there.
📱
On-Device AI
Powered by Apple Foundation Models, running entirely on your iPhone. No third-party AI services. No cloud. No API calls leaving your device.
✈️
Fully Offline
Works without an internet connection. Your phone's Neural Engine does all the work locally — useful in meetings, on planes, or anywhere without signal.
🔒
Grounded Answers
Responses are drawn directly from the AA Big Book text — not from a general-purpose chatbot. The source is cited so you can read it in context.
🆓
No Account Required
Download and use immediately. No sign-up, no email, no subscription required. Nothing to create, nothing to share, nothing to lose.

Who it's for

Built for the fellowship, and for anyone who wants a deeper way into the text.

Working Steps With Others
