Using Kara every day

Kara tracks physical gold bars, coins, jewellery, and other precious-metal assets together with their quantities, weights, purity, purchase prices, and storage locations.

The app brings inventory, documents, valuations, sale simulations, and reports together in one private vault.

Platforms
Kara is available for iOS and Android, both built around the same privacy promise.
Access
No Kara account: the app uses the system account already configured on the device for private backup.
Assistance
Support answers questions about using Kara, privacy, and its online services.

Privacy

Where is my inventory stored?

It is managed on the device. Private backup uses iCloud on iOS and Google Drive AppData on Android. Kara does not store a copy of your complete inventory.

If you enable AI-assisted form filling, only the selected photo or invoice analysis copy, limited to six pages, temporarily passes through Kara to OpenAI. The Kara backend does not store it.

Is AI-assisted form filling required?

No. It is off by default, and you can change your choice at any time. Its sole purpose is to suggest values for app fields, with no tracking, advertising, or profiling.

Data submitted through the standard OpenAI API is not used to train its models by default. OpenAI may nevertheless keep abuse-monitoring logs, which may include this content, for up to 30 days. Form filling requires an internet connection and performs no local analysis.

What technical data does Kara retain for an online extraction?

For quotas, limits described as “per installation” may technically be applied to the App Attest key. Redis holds only HMAC pseudonyms and window markers for no more than 24 hours. A quarantine marker associated with that key or the IP address may remain for seven days if the abuse threshold is reached. The keyId and IP address are not retained in raw form.

Kara operational logs are retained for no more than 30 days. They may include the request ID, media type and size, page count, status, latency, and token counts, but never the media, extracted fields, keyId, IP address, or their HMAC pseudonyms.

Will I need a Kara account?

No. Kara is designed without an app-specific account. The device’s iCloud or Google account will only support the private backup provided by the operating system.

Will market-price requests reveal my inventory?

No. Reference-price requests include no items, purchase prices, or storage locations. A value can also be adjusted manually.

Features

What can I track in Kara?

Kara inventories bars, coins, jewellery, and other precious-metal objects, then consolidates their estimated value, acquisition cost, allocation, and gain.

Are simulations sale advice?

No. Scenarios are estimates excluding fees and taxes. Kara does not provide financial or tax advice.

Are reports and PDFs sent to Kara?

No. They are generated locally on the device. If you then choose to share a PDF, its destination depends on your action and the selected service.

Official downloads

Kara does not offer a waiting-list account or marketing form on this website.

Use only the App Store and Google Play links displayed on the official website. Do not install any version presented as official from another source.

Need help?

Email us directly. Your mail app opens without a server form collecting your request on this website. To report an extraction issue, provide only the request ID if the app gives you one; do not attach media, extracted fields, an App Attest identifier, or any real information about your holdings.
