How to chat with a PDF

1
Upload your PDF from your device, or pull it directly from Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive.
2
Wait a few seconds while we read your document. We extract the full text so the AI can answer questions about any part of it.
3
Type your question in plain language. Ask for a summary, hunt down a specific clause, pull key figures, or compare sections - anything you would normally ask a colleague.
4
Get an answer grounded in the actual content of your PDF. Follow up with as many questions as you need - the chat remembers the conversation.
5
Done? Send the PDF straight into another tool like Sign, Compress, or PDF to Word - or just close the tab. Your file auto-deletes from our servers within one hour.

Why use our Chat with PDF tool

Plain language Q&A
Ask questions the way you would ask a person - no special syntax, no keywords. The AI figures out what you mean and finds it in your PDF.
Grounded in your PDF
Answers come from the actual text of your document, not the AI's general knowledge - so you can trust what you read back.
Summarise long reports
Drop in a hundred-page contract or research paper and ask for a one-paragraph summary, a bullet list, or a section-by-section breakdown.
Find clauses and figures
Hunt down a specific sentence, paragraph, number, or term across the whole document in seconds. Far faster than Ctrl+F.
Multi-page understanding
The AI sees your whole document at once, so it can compare sections, follow references between pages, and pull facts from anywhere.
Follow-up questions
The chat keeps context. Ask a question, then drill in with 'and what about the next page?' or 'what does that mean?' just like a real conversation.
One-hour auto-delete
Your PDF is removed from our servers within one hour. Nothing lingers, nothing is reused for training. Privacy is the default.
Cloud import
Pull files from Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive without a local download step.
Workflow Ready
Once you have your answers, send the PDF into Sign, Compress, PDF to Word, or any other tool straight from the chat - no re-uploading anywhere.
Free, no signup
Start chatting without an account. No watermark, no per-day cap on questions.

Frequently asked questions

What kinds of questions can I ask?
Anything you would ask a colleague who has read the document: summaries, definitions, key figures, deadlines, names, clauses, comparisons between sections, plain explanations of complex parts, action items. The AI is good at all of these on real documents.
How accurate are the answers?
Very high when the answer is in the document. The model is grounded in your PDF, so it pulls from the actual text rather than guessing. For figures and dates, it quotes back what the file says - check those against the source if the stakes are high.
Will it make things up if the answer is not in the PDF?
It is trained to say so when something is not in the document. If you ask for an opinion or a fact that is not on any page, it should respond that the PDF does not cover it rather than invent.
What size PDFs can I chat with?
Anything from a 2-page invoice to a 5-page report works. Without an account: up to 5 MB per file. With a free account: up to 8 MB per file.
Can I ask follow-up questions?
Yes. The chat remembers your previous messages, so you can drill in - 'expand on point 2', 'compare with section 4', 'what did the email say again?' - just like a normal conversation.
Is my document private?
Yes. Uploads happen over HTTPS, conversations are not shared, and the PDF is deleted from our servers within one hour. The file is not used to train any AI model.
What kinds of documents work best?
Text-based PDFs work straight away - reports, contracts, manuals, papers, ebooks, invoices, statements. Scanned PDFs work too, but for best accuracy run them through our OCR tool first so the AI sees real text instead of images.
Can I import from Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive?
Yes. Use the cloud buttons on the upload screen to pull your PDF in directly. No need to download it to your device first.
Can I chat with multiple PDFs at once?
One PDF per chat session. To work with several documents, you can chat with each in its own session, or use Merge PDF first to combine them into a single file before chatting.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. The tool runs in any modern browser on phone, tablet, or desktop.
