How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

Your team stores important documents in Google Drive, but finding the right answer means digging through file after file. You want a way to just ask a question and get the answer pulled from your own documents.

Who it fits

Teams that need quick answers from a growing library of internal documents.

How it works

  1. A new PDF appears in a Google Drive folder
  2. The document's content is loaded and broken into searchable chunks
  3. The chunks are stored in a searchable knowledge base
  4. You ask a question in chat and get an answer pulled from your documents
What you get

Answers pulled straight from your own documents

You ask a question in chat and get an answer pulled directly from your growing library of internal documents, no digging required.

What you get

A chatbot that answers questions using the content of your own documents.

What you need

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