Frequently asked questions
How long can the input PDF be?
Long documents are chunked and summarized in sections before being combined.
Is my PDF used to train an AI model?
No. Content is passed to the model only to generate your summary and is discarded afterward.
What if the PDF is a scan?
Run OCR first with the OCR PDF tool so the text is extractable.
