01 — The Bottleneck

The speed of information generation has surpassed human processing speed.

We are drowning in PDFs, whitepapers, and reports. Traditional reading is linear, passive, and slow. It is a legacy format in an exponential age.

Vista is not a summary tool. It is a cognitive restructuring engine. It breaks down linear text and rebuilds it as a navigable network of ideas.

The Pipeline

STEP_01

Normalization

Input: DOCX / PDF / URL → Markdown

Stripping formatting noise. Preserving structural hierarchy. Preparing raw data for semantic analysis.
STEP_02

Semantic Analysis

LLM Context Window → "The Golden Thread"

Identifying core arguments. Detecting logical flows. Calculating sentiment and complexity density.
STEP_03

Restructuring

Linear Text → Layered Slides + Maps

Generating Mermaid.js diagrams for processes. Creating "Gist" and "Deep" layers. Synthesizing visuals.

Gist Mode

Synthesizes content into high-level strategic takeaways. Ideal for executives and rapid triage of information.

Socratic Mode

Interrupts reading with active recall questions. Transforms passive consumption into deep retention.

Concept Mapping

Automatically generates Mermaid.js flowcharts and mind maps from dense text paragraphs.

Executive Brief

Before you dive deep, get the essence in under 3 seconds.

FAQ

Common Questions

01

Is my data used for training?

No. Your documents are processed in isolated environments and never used to train AI models. We maintain strict data processing agreements with our AI providers (GPT-5, FLUX.2) that prohibit retention of your content. Uploaded documents are automatically deleted after processing unless you explicitly choose to save them.

02

What AI models power Vista?

Vista uses a combination of best-in-class AI models. GPT-5 handles semantic analysis, argument extraction, and content synthesis. FLUX.1 generates contextual visuals and diagrams. For visualization, we use Mermaid.js to create interactive flowcharts and knowledge maps from your documents.

03

What file formats are supported?

Vista supports the most common document formats used in business and academia:

PDF DOCX URLs TXT MD
04

How accurate are the summaries?

Vista's AI models achieve high accuracy in extracting key arguments and relationships. However, we recommend using the generated content as a starting point for understanding—not a replacement for critical reading when stakes are high. Always verify facts, figures, and nuanced interpretations against the original document.

Learning Mode

Deep Mode

When you need to actually learn the material, not just skim it.

Gist Mode gets you the highlights. Deep Mode takes you on a pedagogical journey through the content—progressively building understanding layer by layer until you reach verbatim mastery.

For Students, Researchers & Lifelong Learners
Layer Progression
Layer 1 — Context

High-level overview and "why this matters" framing.

Layer 2 — Core Arguments

Key concepts with supporting evidence (locked)

Layer 3 — Verbatim Detail

Original text with your annotations (locked)

Press [Space] to unlock next layer

Progressive Disclosure

Start with the executive summary. Unlock deeper layers only when you're ready. No cognitive overload—just structured learning at your pace.

Verbatim Mode

Access the original text alongside AI-generated summaries. Perfect for citations, fact-checking, and understanding nuanced language.

Socratic Integration

Deep Mode works with Socratic questions at each layer. Test your understanding before advancing to ensure true comprehension, not just exposure.

Who needs Deep Mode?

PhD candidates analyzing dense theoretical texts
Medical students mastering complex procedures
Engineers studying technical specifications
Lawyers reviewing case law and precedents
Anyone who needs to truly master—not just scan—content
