What is ChatPDF?
ChatPDF does one thing and does it well: you drop in a PDF — a paper, contract, manual or textbook — and ask questions in plain language. Answers come back with citations to the pages they came from, so you can verify claims in the original document instead of trusting a summary. It handles many languages, lets you chat with several files together, and works without an account for a first taste.
The tool found its audience with students and researchers facing hundred-page readings, but lawyers, analysts and job-hunters use it the same way. Free use covers a couple of documents a day with size limits; the Plus plan raises file sizes, page counts and daily questions considerably. It is the simplest on-ramp to document chat, even if power users may outgrow it.
