Share a PDF people can chat with

Upload a PDF, turn on AI chat from your dashboard, and share a link where readers ask the document questions and get answers. It is included free, and readers need no account.

By uploading, you agree to our Terms and Data Processing Terms and confirm you have the right to share this content.

How it works

  1. Upload your PDF

    Drop a PDF onto the box above to publish it at its own link. Sign in with a free account so you can manage it from your dashboard.

  2. Turn on AI chat

    In your dashboard, enable chat on the PDF. We read the document's text and prepare it so questions are answered from what is actually in the file.

  3. Share the link

    Send the link. Anyone who opens it sees a chat box beside the PDF and can ask questions about the document, with no account required to read or ask.

Why share a chattable PDF

Frequently asked questions

Is chatting with a PDF really free?
Yes. AI PDF chat is included on every plan, free included. You can enable it on a PDF and share a link where readers ask questions, without paying. Paid plans raise the limits.
Who can chat with the document, me or the people I share with?
Both. You enable chat as the owner, and anyone who opens the shared link gets the same chat box beside the PDF. Readers do not need an account to ask questions.
How many PDFs can I make chattable?
The free plan lets you turn on chat for a small number of PDFs, and paid plans make it unlimited. Longer documents are supported too, with a higher page limit on paid plans.
How accurate are the answers?
Answers are generated from the text we extract from your PDF, so they reflect what the document contains. As with any AI assistant, it is wise to double-check anything important against the source pages, which stay right there in the viewer.
What kinds of PDFs work best?
Text-based PDFs such as reports, guides, contracts, papers, and manuals work best, because chat is built from the document's text. Very long files are trimmed to a supported length, which is larger on paid plans.
