About AdFontes.AI
Sit with the great Christian minds. AdFontes.AI lets you put a question to Augustine, Aquinas, Calvin, Edwards, and dozens more — and read an answer grounded in what they actually wrote. Every response draws on a library of their own texts, with citations you can follow back to the source. Ad fontes: to the sources. THREE WAYS TO READ Chat — One-on-one with a single thinker. Ask about grace, suffering, prayer, the sacraments, doubt. Follow the thread as far as you want to take it. Panel — Convene up to three voices at once and put the same question to all of them. Listen to where they agree, and where they don't. Study — Move through Scripture passage by passage with the historical commentary drawn up alongside the text. GROUNDED, AND SHOWS ITS WORK The answers are not improvised. They are built from a searchable library of the thinkers' own writings, and where a claim rests on a specific passage the app shows you the citation. You are always one tap from the actual text. BUILT FOR READING Light, sepia, dark, and OLED themes. Adjustable type size. Portrait or landscape, on iPhone and iPad. Your conversations, bookmarks, and study sessions sync to your account, so the thread you started on your phone is waiting on the web. HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT IS These are AI representations of historical figures, built on their writings — not the figures themselves, and not a substitute for pastoral care, Scripture, or the church. Quotations are marked and cited. Everything else is the model's reconstruction, and worth reading the way you would read a well-informed study partner: engage it, and check it. FREE TO BEGIN Fourteen days of full access to every mode and every voice, no card required. After that, Chat stays free with a daily message allowance. A paid plan lifts the limit and opens Panel and Study. AdFontes.AI requires an account and an internet connection. You must be 18 or older. SUBSCRIPTION AdFontes Disciple is available as an auto-renewing subscription, monthly or yearly.It lifts the daily message limit and opens Panel, Study, and every author. Prices are shown in the app before you purchase, in your local currency. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.

What’s new
Version 1.01 · Updated September 29, 2026
Your plan now says what it actually is — free trial, monthly, yearly, or complimentary — along with when it renews or ends. If you cancel, it says that too, rather than promising a renewal that isn't coming. One text size setting now changes text everywhere in the app, in four steps from Small to Extra Large, instead of quietly governing only part of it. Also in this release: • Fixed an issue that could close the app when opening a source in the reader on iPad • Answers no longer show stray # characters • Scrolled conversations no longer run underneath the clock • Reaching a limit on the free plan now offers a way forward instead of an error • Choosing a passage in Study now opens from the button you tapped, with books laid out by testament • Confirming your email now takes a deliberate tap, so a link scanner can't spend your confirmation before you do • You can now choose to receive The Footnote, our occasional letter. It's off unless you ask for it, and you can turn it off in Profile at any time • Assorted layout and wording fixes throughout
