Ask Questions About Any PDF
Reading a long contract or research paper for one specific answer is slow. Chat with PDF extracts the document's text in your browser, then lets you ask it questions directly instead of scrolling and Ctrl-F'ing your way through.
It's built for the moment you need one clause, one number, or one paragraph out of a document you don't want to re-read end to end.
Key Capabilities
Local text extraction first
Text comes out of the PDF in your browser before anything is sent anywhere — the original file never leaves your device.
Handles long documents
Works with dense PDFs up to roughly 150 pages without losing track of earlier sections.
Follow-up questions
Keep asking — the conversation carries context, so you can narrow in on a clause or figure without re-explaining what you're looking for.
How to Use
Upload your PDF
Drop in a report, contract, textbook chapter, or any other PDF — up to roughly 150 pages.
Text is extracted in your browser
The PDF's text layer is pulled out locally first. The file itself, images and metadata included, stays on your device.
Ask questions
Type a question the way you'd ask a colleague who already read the document — "what's the termination clause say" works fine.
Get sourced answers
Answers come back grounded in the extracted text, so you're not getting a generic response disconnected from your document.
Common Use Cases
- Reviewing a contract before signingAsk what the termination or renewal terms actually say instead of hunting through a 40-page agreement.
- Studying from a textbook chapterPull out definitions or worked examples from assigned reading without re-reading the whole chapter.
- Digging through a long reportGet straight to the numbers or conclusions buried in a quarterly report or research paper.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my entire PDF uploaded to the AI?
No. The tool extracts the text from your PDF locally in your browser first. Only the plain text is sent to the AI for analysis — the file itself, including its images and metadata, never leaves your device.
How large of a PDF can I chat with?
It handles dense documents up to roughly 150 pages, processing the full text to answer specific questions and pull out key information rather than skimming a summary.
Can it summarize instead of just answering questions?
Yes — ask it to summarize the whole document, a specific section, or just the parts relevant to a topic you name.
What kinds of documents work best?
Text-based PDFs work best: contracts, research papers, reports, manuals. Scanned image-only PDFs need OCR first — run them through a scanner tool so there's actual text to extract.
