What files can I upload?

The current parser work targets common piston aircraft engine monitor exports, including Garmin, JPI, Insight, and Electronics International style logs.

Does AlaryIQ diagnose engine problems?

No. It highlights review cues, operating context, and data-quality concerns so a qualified person can evaluate the aircraft with proper inspection and records.

What does phase-aware mean?

The app separates startup, runup, takeoff, climb, cruise, descent, landing, and shutdown so temperatures and pressures are read in the right flight context.

Can I compare multiple flights?

Yes. The workspace is being shaped around aircraft history, trend snapshots, and selected-flight comparisons to make repeat behavior easier to spot.

Who is this for?

Owners, pilots, shops, and analysts who want readable engine-monitor review notes without losing the supporting evidence behind each flag.

Can it replace my mechanic?

No. Treat AlaryIQ as a screening and communication tool. Maintenance decisions belong with certificated mechanics, manufacturer guidance, and aircraft records.

What does the report include?

Reports include readable review notes, supporting chart context, advisory findings, and source data references that help explain what the log shows.

Can I export or share the review?

Yes. Reviews can be exported as reports for maintenance conversations, owner records, and comparison across flights.

What if my monitor format is not supported yet?

You can request support by sharing the monitor make, model, export type, and sample file details so the format can be evaluated.

What makes this different from looking at raw charts?

AlaryIQ combines charts, context, review notes, and report-ready language instead of leaving every trace to be interpreted manually.

Does AlaryIQ work for twin-engine aircraft?

Yes. The workspace supports multi-engine review and can compare left/right, front/rear, or engine-indexed data when those fields are available in the log.

Will it tell me what repair to make?

No. AlaryIQ organizes evidence and review cues, but repair decisions belong with qualified maintenance professionals and aircraft-specific documentation.
