ChatDOC

ChatDOC is a ChatGPT-based file-reading assistant that can quickly extract, locate, and summarize information from documents. It can understand texts, tables, and images — and return highlights that matter.

What makes it different (better) than competing tools is its ability to go beyond PDF files, as it can also sing along .doc, .docx, .md, .epub, and .txt files — as well as websites and scanned files. Yes, it comes with a built-in OCR that will detect and read text on the image to return the summary.

Furthermore, and as mentioned above, it can understand tables — allowing you to select it and ask for analysis. Also, you can select partial text from the document and start the conversation about it to get more information on the subject at hand.

In addition, every response ChatDOC provides will come with a citation so that you know where in the document the information comes from. This makes it very useful for researchers who need to precisely cite all of their sources.

Finally, it’s worth adding that ChatDOC can make queries across multiple documents — which is another handy feature for researchers and students alike.
