Keep your Supabase knowledge base synced with Google Drive

Every time a document changes in Google Drive, the system updates your searchable Supabase knowledge base automatically.

How the work actually flows

A straight line. Runs once per each chunk of document text.

The problem it solves

Manually re-uploading and re-processing documents every time something changes is a losing battle, and stale content in your knowledge base means your AI tools give worse answers. You need your internal search or chatbot to actually reflect your latest files. This keeps everything in sync without anyone lifting a finger.

Who it fits

Businesses running an internal AI search tool, chatbot, or support assistant on top of their own documents.

How it works

  1. A file added or changed in a watched Google Drive folder triggers the system
  2. The text is extracted and broken into smaller, manageable chunks
  3. Each chunk is enriched with a summary and context using AI, then converted into embeddings with OpenAI
  4. The old version is replaced and the updated, searchable content is stored in Supabase
What you get

Search results that always reflect your latest files

Your knowledge base stays current with every document you add or change in Google Drive, with no manual re-uploading.

What you get

An always-current, searchable knowledge base in Supabase that reflects your latest documents.

What you need

A Google Drive account, an OpenAI API key, and a Supabase account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
