Turn your PDF into an informative chatbot
Ask Your PDF is a free app that allows you to convert a PDF file into a chatbot. The bot will be based on the information contained within the PDF. That means instead of taking the time to read the document, you can pick out specific details in a question-and-answer session.
The tool is not to be confused with apps for reading PDF files, like Free PDF reader. Instead, it uses AI software similar to ChatGPT, allowing you to ask questions and receive prompt answers from your AI chatbot. The information buried in the PDF will be at your fingertips.
Upload your document
Ask Your PDF opens by requesting that you upload a document. You can do so by uploading from your device or linking to an online file. You'll then enter a conversation with a chatbot tailored to the information featured in the PDF, which begins by suggesting some ready-made questions.
Detailed answers
Ask Your PDF gets information partly from the uploaded document and partly from the chatbot's wider training. You can receive answers about specific details not covered in the document and receive full answers. This might be handy if you would like to dig deeper into the topic covered by the document.
Take it with a grain of salt
The accuracy of the information gleaned from Ask Your PDF will largely depend on the PDF that you upload. If the document has false information, the chatbot can repeat this. The app might also misread a document. If you upload a scanned magazine, the resulting chatbot might be based on the first-page advert rather than the articles.
Has its uses
As with all such apps, Ask Your PDF is no substitute for solid research. However, as a means of finding quick answers for casual use or simply a bit of fun, it has its appeal.
