Overview

Turn documents into an AI-powered knowledge base.

Upload PDF, CSV, or JSON files and ask natural-language questions about their content using a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) workflow powered by Google Gemini. The workflow extracts, embeds, and semantically searches document data to generate accurate, source-grounded answers.

Designed as a simple and extensible starting point for building AI document assistants.


Key Features

  • Upload and analyze PDF, CSV, and JSON
  • AI chatbot with semantic document search
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architecture
  • Answers grounded in uploaded documents
  • Beginner-friendly workflow with clear documentation
  • Easy to extend for production use

How It Works

  1. Upload a document via form trigger
  2. Content is split into searchable chunks
  3. Gemini generates embeddings
  4. Data is stored in a vector store
  5. The chatbot retrieves context and answers questions

Requirements

  • Google Gemini API credentials

Notes

  • Uses an in-memory vector store (data resets on restart)
  • Can be replaced with Pinecone, Supabase, Weaviate, or other persistent databases
  • Gemini API usage may incur costs depending on document size and query volume
