ChatDOC
What it is
ChatDOC lets you work with document files through natural-language questions and instructions. It can summarize, extract, locate, analyze, and rewrite content in PDFs, Word files, Markdown, ePub, TXT, and scanned documents. A folder of files can be uploaded for questions across multiple documents. Answers include page and reference citations, highlighted jumps to source text, and highlighted numerical values for checking. ChatDOC also provides an API for adding document processing and generated responses to other applications. Its PDF Parser API recognizes text, tables, and images, converting PDF material into structured formats such as JSON. The free plan costs nothing and allows five uploads daily, ten total uploads, 20 questions daily, 100 total questions, 300 pages per file, and 60 MB files. Pro costs $8.99 a month or $89.90 a year, with 300 uploads per 30 days, 300 questions daily, 200 MB files, and 500 OCR pages per 30 days. Internet access is required.
