FileGPT is a very powerful AI based tool that you can use to manage and interact with your digital files such as text files, PDF, Webpages, Images, Audio, Video etc. It allows you to seamlessly chat with all the supported files in plain natural language and get precise response to your queries.
FileGPT is here to put an end to the never-ending scrolling of your files for searching and extracting information and clearly offers a more perceptive and natural way of working with multiple type of documents by chatting with them. This creates a centralized knowledge base for you that you can utilize to easily access, analyze and query various types of files to get the required information.
Features:
Supports multiple file types: FileGPT enables you to interact with several types of documents like plain text, PDF, YouTube videos, Audio, Images and more. However, the free version of FileGPT covers only plain text and PDF files.
Support for long text: FileGPT offers support for large files too containing a lot of text.
Smart Content Parsing: You can extract text through OCR from handwritten documents as well as analyze and study audio and video content.
Cross-Source Querying: FileGPT allows you to simultaneously query all files easily and quickly by selecting the sources, asking your questions, and getting the results.
The free version of FileGPT allows a maximum of 3 Files / Collections and a single file of size not more than 10 mb. To overcome this limitation, you must subscribe to the paid plans of FileGPT. Click here to learn more about them.
