> Document Q&A with cited answers across your uploaded files

Humata is a web app for asking questions about your own documents. You upload files or folders, or import a website, and it answers in a chat with citations that link back to the relevant passages. Plans are metered by the number of pages uploaded each month, and the team features include roles, folder permissions and SAML single sign-on.

## Key features

- **Chat with your files:** Upload files or whole folders and ask questions about them. Each answer cites the relevant sections of the source documents, with highlighted links back into the file.
- **Ask All across files:** Tick several files or a folder and use Ask All to put one question to all of them at once, for example to compare documents.
- **Website import:** The From URL option in the upload dialog imports a website so that questions can be asked about its pages.
- **Answer modes and custom prompts:** Grounded, Balanced and Creative modes set how closely answers stick to the documents, and a custom prompt can be sent along with every question.
- **Team roles and permissions:** Admins invite members, assign admin or member roles, group people into teams and restrict access to folders. Department and folder permissions start at the Team plan.
- **Embeds and API:** A chat view for a file or folder can be embedded in a web page, with white labeling on Enterprise. An API covers document import, conversations and questions.

## Good for

- Asking questions across many long PDFs and getting cited answers
- Small teams of up to three people sharing one $9.99 plan
- Companies that want to embed document Q&A on their own website

## Worth knowing

- The Free plan is limited to 1 user and 60 pages a month, and the homepage also caps it at 10 answers.
- Pages beyond a plan's monthly allowance are billed per page: $0.02 on Expert and $0.01 on Team.
- OCR for scanned text, department and folder permissions and response personalization need the Team plan.
- The billing FAQ mentions a Student plan, but the pricing page does not list it or show a price.
