# AskYourPDF

> Chat with PDFs and other documents and get cited answers

AskYourPDF is an AI tool for asking questions about documents. You upload a PDF, DOCX, EPUB or text file, or paste a URL, and it answers with citations that point back to the source page. Paid plans add Knowledge Bases for chatting across many files, OCR for scans and a wider choice of GPT, Gemini and Claude models. The site now leads with two newer products, a website chatbot trained on your own content and an AI PDF form filler, and there is a developer API.

## Key features

- **Chat with documents:** Upload a PDF, DOCX, EPUB or TXT file, or paste a URL, and ask questions in plain language. Each answer cites the page it came from, and the site says it works in more than 100 languages.
- **Knowledge Bases:** Premium and Pro group documents into a Knowledge Base, so that one question draws a single cited answer from every file in it.
- **Choice of AI models:** The free plan runs on GPT-5 Mini. Paid plans add GPT-5, GPT-5.2 and Gemini 2.5 Flash, while Claude 4.5 Sonnet, Claude 4.5 Opus and Gemini 2.5 Pro draw on credits.
- **AI Agent for websites:** Trains a chatbot on your website and uploaded files and embeds it with one line of code. Visitors can open a support ticket when the agent cannot answer.
- **AI form filler:** Fills fillable and non-fillable PDF forms using data taken from another PDF, a text file or pasted content.
- **Developer API:** Adds documents by upload or URL and answers questions about them. API plans are separate: free with 100 messages, or $49.99 a month for 6,000 messages and 60,000 pages.

## Worth knowing
