A LITTLE LIFE GUIDE / GUIDE

Choose online AI with informed source sharing

Review the displayed material before approving gateway processing.

Online AI can help interpret approved source material without requiring a customer API key. It still means sending that material beyond your device, so inspect what you are sharing.

THE LITTLE THING TO REMEMBER

Online AI is a source-sharing choice, even when the app supplies the service connection.

01

Check the source before the request

Open the image or text visible in the capture review and make sure it is the material you intend to process. A screenshot can contain unrelated names or messages around the useful section. Use an appropriate source rather than assuming the model sees only the sentence you had in mind.

02

Review the resulting interpretation

OneTap sends the approved material through its gateway to SiliconFlow when you request online processing. The workspace itself does not synchronize. Check proposed dates, amounts and actions before approval; a server response can be well formatted and still contain a mistaken reading.

03

Distinguish access from availability

Before approving an online request, inspect the edges of the displayed screenshot as well as the sentence you care about. A message preview, account label or unrelated conversation may also be visible. If that extra material is unnecessary, choose a more suitable source before starting the request. After the response arrives, compare its proposed fields with the material you actually supplied. Do not infer that the gateway synchronized your saved task or acquired access to an entire inbox simply because it processed one approved source. Keeping the scope concrete helps you understand both the sharing decision you made and the limits of what the model could reasonably have checked.

ONE MORE QUESTION

Do I need to paste a personal provider key into the app?

No. OneTap’s production gateway keeps provider credentials server-side; users do not need their own provider key.

Your source stays the reference.

These guides explain product workflows. Review extracted names, dates and amounts. Features depend on your device, permissions and optional service setup.
