Tools & Scanners

A single place for the ApoKrino instruments: free scanners that read your own creative work and surface the signal in it, plus the apps that support a sustained practice.

Free diagnostics

Bring your own work and get an honest read — no artwork is ever generated for you.

  • Signal Scan. Scan 20–50 pages of your work and find the pattern running through it — the signal you keep making without noticing.
  • Signal Type. A short diagnostic that reads you as a maker — which of eight creative types you work from, and what that means for what to make next.
  • Read a work-in-progress. Bring one piece you’re stuck on. A close read of the single work in front of you.
  • The Antidote. Overwhelmed or doom-scrolling? A three-minute reset that ends with you off the feed and making one mark.

The apps

  • ApoKrinoGo. Work your own sketchbook practice with light guidance — the bridge between the paper practices and Forge. Subscribe inside the app.
  • Forge. The full sketchbook studio: capture your work, and let pattern analysis surface the signal across a whole body of it. AI mirrors your work, never authors it. Subscribe inside the app.

ApoKrinoGo and ApoKrino Forge support the practice over time. They charge inside the app, not here — this page is only the door to them.

Looking for a five-minute paper practice instead? See the print-at-home practices, or read how the method works.

Frequently asked questions

Do the scanners generate art for me?

No. The ApoKrino scanners read your own creative work and reflect back the pattern, tension, or next experiment in it. They never generate artwork — the ideas and the work remain yours.

Are the tools free?

The diagnostics — Signal Scan, Signal Type, the WIP reader, and Antidote — are free. The ApoKrino apps (ApoKrinoGo and Forge) are separate and charge inside the app, not on this page.
