Ask grounded questions about a PDF.
Upload a text-based PDF, review the extracted source status, and ask focused questions inside a document-first AI workspace.
How DockDocs grounds AI answers in your source
Every answer is generated from the text of the document you uploaded — not from the model's general knowledge. DockDocs shows the exact passage each answer draws from, so you can trace any claim back to its source. When the document does not contain enough evidence, DockDocs says so instead of guessing, and a quoted reference that cannot be located in your file is flagged as unverifiable rather than presented as fact. That source-grounding is what separates a trustworthy document assistant from a general chatbot.
Chat with PDF questions
What is DockDocs Chat with PDF?+
DockDocs Chat with PDF lets users upload a PDF, extract readable text in the browser, and ask questions through a configured AI provider.
Does it answer without an AI provider?+
No. If the provider endpoint or API key is unavailable, the page returns a real error instead of a simulated answer.
Does it support scanned PDFs?+
This MVP reads selectable PDF text. Scanned PDFs require OCR before chat can answer against their content.
Is it static export compatible?+
Yes. The page is static-export compatible, while provider calls are routed through a Netlify Function when deployed.
