Chat With Your Documents: AI Over Google Drive, PDFs & S3

Teams waste hours searching documents for an answer that's sitting in a file somewhere. Chatting with your documents replaces the search with a question: the AI finds the relevant passage across your files and answers from it, with a link to the source. Here's how it works.

Quick answer

Chatting with your documents means connecting an AI chatbot to your files — Google Drive, PDFs, Amazon S3, SharePoint — so you can ask questions and get answers pulled from the right document, with the source cited. It uses retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to find the relevant passages and answer from them, so your team stops hunting through folders for information.

What it connects to

Your existing document stores.

  • Google Drive and Google Docs
  • PDFs, Word and text files
  • Amazon S3 and other object storage
  • SharePoint, Notion and knowledge bases
