Upload several reports, papers, or contracts and get a concise AI summary of each — executive summary plus key points. Up to 5 at a time.
or drop files / a folder here
Every summary is written only from the text of the document you uploaded — DockDocs instructs the AI to draw the key points, action items and takeaways from your file's own content and not to add facts from outside it. A summary is a paraphrase, not a quote, so for anything that matters — figures, dates, obligations — check it against the passage it came from. The value is a faithful condensation of what your document actually says, not a generic answer assembled from the model's general knowledge.
// Benefits
Drop in a stack of PDFs and get a focused summary for each one, generated by AI.
Queue several PDFs at once and the AI works through them one at a time, so a folder of contracts or papers becomes a folder of summaries.
Each document comes back as a short overview followed by the main points, so you can scan what matters without opening every file.
Every result is collected into one tidy Markdown file you can download, paste into notes, or share with a colleague.
// Workflow
For the moment a pile of PDFs lands on you at once — a research folder, a quarter of board decks, a stack of vendor contracts.
Add the PDFs you want summarized, by drag-and-drop or the file picker.
Run the batch — the AI reads the text of each document and writes its summary in turn.
Read each summary on screen, or download them all as one Markdown file.

The one-document version — a focused executive summary and key points for a single file.
Continue ->The same folder-at-once approach, translating a stack of documents instead of summarizing them.
Continue ->Bring documents together to ask questions and pull out what you need across them.
Continue ->Drag and drop your PDFs onto the drop zone, or click "Choose PDFs" to pick them. You can add up to 5 files at a time. Once they're loaded, click "Summarize all" — each document is summarized in turn, and you'll see a progress count like 2/5 while it works. When it finishes you get an executive summary plus key points for every file.
Your PDF file is never uploaded. The text is extracted right inside your browser, and only that extracted text — not the original file — is sent to our AI summary service to generate the summary. This is an AI tool, so it does need an internet connection to reach the AI service, but the document itself stays on your device.
That means the PDF has no text layer to read — it's almost always a scanned page or a photo saved as PDF, which is just an image to the tool. Run our OCR PDF tool on it first to add a real text layer, then come back and summarize it here. PDFs that are encrypted or password-protected also won't extract; remove the password first.
For each PDF you get a short executive summary plus a list of key points, shown as a card on the page. Once all files are done, click "Download all (.md)" to save everything as a single Markdown file (dockdocs-summaries.md) with one section per document — easy to drop into your notes, a doc, or a wiki.
We cap each run at 5 PDFs and process them one after another to stay within fair-use limits and keep results reliable rather than overloading the AI service. If you have more, just run a batch, click "Start over", and load the next set. Files that fail are marked individually, so one bad PDF won't stop the rest.
Treat them as a fast first pass, not a substitute for reading. Summaries are AI-generated from each document, so they can miss nuance or occasionally get a detail wrong — always give them a quick check against the source before you rely on anything important, especially in contracts or reports.
