FILMIs PURSUE a real U.S. government program?
PURSUE is the U.S. government's public release of its Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) records — documents, images, and military sensor footage published at war.gov and drawn from across the federal government, framed with the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office's (AARO) assessments.
Are these real government UFO files?
Yes. Every file in Umbra comes from the public PURSUE record at war.gov. Umbra organizes and renders the documents, images, and videos but does not host or alter them.
Is Umbra free?
Yes — the full archive is free to browse, search, and read. An optional Umbra Clearance subscription adds ECHELON (an on-device AI analyst), an incident map, offline cache, real-time push, and ad-free reading.
What is ECHELON?
ECHELON is a fully on-device AI analyst included with Umbra Clearance. Ask the archive in plain language and it reads the actual declassified files — OCR-ing scanned pages — then answers with quotes and tappable page citations. Nothing leaves your device.
Where does Umbra's data come from?
From the public PURSUE record at war.gov. The app reads its catalog from Apple's iCloud (CloudKit public database); there is no developer server tracking your reading.
Is Umbra affiliated with the U.S. government?
No. Umbra is an independent, unofficial reader. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the Department of War, the NSA, AARO, or any government agency.
