FOR QUALITY MANAGERS AND ISO CONSULTANTS

Know what changed in the procedure before the auditor asks

Revision histories say “minor updates”. FolioCore compares SOP versions by meaning, verifies that mandatory sections are present, and keeps proprietary process documentation on your own machine.

What is FolioCore?

FolioCore is an offline AI document analysis application for macOS that reviews quality documentation locally. SOPs, work instructions, quality manuals and CAPA records never leave the computer, which matters when procedures describe proprietary processes.

PROBLEMS IT SOLVES

The work it takes off a quality team's desk

PROBLEM 01

The revision that says “minor updates”

Between revision C and revision D, a verification step disappeared and an approval moved to a different role. The change log mentions neither.

WITH FOLIOCORE

Semantic Redline compares the two revisions by meaning. Removed steps, changed responsibilities and new approval flows are listed one per line and shown side by side on the actual documents, with formatting noise filtered out.

PROBLEM 02

Audit preparation, document by document

Before the certification audit, every controlled document needs its revision history, approvals, references, scope and process owner in place. Checking that by eye across hundreds of files is where findings come from.

WITH FOLIOCORE

Encode your document control standard as a checklist once, then run it against each SOP. FolioCore marks every required element OK or NOT FOUND and highlights where it found it, so gaps surface before the auditor does.

PROBLEM 03

Finding the requirement

Someone on the line asks what the procedure says about rework limits, and the honest answer is a twenty-minute search.

WITH FOLIOCORE

Ask the quality manual directly. Chat with Document answers from the open file only, cites the paragraph, and says Not Found when the procedure is silent, which is itself a finding worth knowing.

HOW IT WORKS

Four steps, zero uploads

STEP 1

Open the document

Drop a PDF into FolioCore. Files are opened read-only; the original is never modified and its hash stays intact.

STEP 2

Run the analysis

Pick a checklist package, an extraction profile, a version comparison or just ask a question. Everything runs on your Mac.

STEP 3

Review grounded findings

Each result is cited and highlighted on the exact page of the original document, so verification takes seconds.

STEP 4

Export the report

Produce a clean PDF, Markdown or CSV report for your file, your client or your workpapers.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions professionals ask first

Why does offline matter for quality documentation?

SOPs and work instructions often describe proprietary processes. FolioCore analyzes them entirely on-device, so process know-how is never uploaded to a third-party AI service.

Does FolioCore alter controlled documents?

Never. Files are opened on a strict read-only layer and their cryptographic hash stays unchanged, so analyzed documents remain valid controlled copies.

Can I build a checklist matching our document control procedure?

Yes. With the Full license, checklists are editable YAML. Encode the sections and fields your QMS requires once and reuse the package across every document.

Does version comparison work on long procedures?

Semantic Redline compares documents by meaning and summarizes each material difference in one line, side by side on the originals. The free Light plan shows the first 5 differences; Full shows them all and exports the report.

What Mac does it require?

Any Apple Silicon Mac (M1 or later) on macOS 26 runs checklists and extraction. Chat with Document and Semantic Redline need 16GB of memory or more.
