File over app

File over app is a philosophy: if you want to create digital artifacts that last, they must be files you can control, in formats that are easy to retrieve and read. Use tools that give you this freedom.

## Interpreter

Enable interpreter
Use natural language to extract data from pages. For example, you can use the template syntax {{"a summary of the page"}}. Requires an API key or custom model configured below. Learn more.
Automatically run
Run prompt variables immediately if the template contains any. This will consume API credits with your model provider. Turn off if you only want to run interpreter manually.
