Ask questions about your PDF, CSV, and JSON files with an AI chatbot

Lets you upload PDF, CSV, or JSON files and ask an AI chatbot questions that are answered from those documents.

How the work actually flows

A straight line. Runs once per chunks of the document.

The problem it solves

You have PDFs, spreadsheets, and data files full of useful information, but finding one answer means opening and scanning through each file by hand. It's slow, and you often give up before finding what you need.

Who it fits

Teams or individuals who need fast answers from a stack of PDFs, spreadsheets, or data files.

How it works

  1. You upload a PDF, CSV, or JSON file
  2. The content is split into searchable pieces and turned into embeddings
  3. You ask a question in the chat
  4. The assistant finds the relevant pieces and answers based on your document
What you get

Answers pulled straight from your own documents

Upload your PDFs, spreadsheets, or data files and get instant answers to your questions straight from the content inside them.

What you get

A written answer to your question, sourced directly from the uploaded document.

What you need

A Google Gemini API key.

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.
