The smartest way to talk to any PDF
Sometimes you do not need a summary, you need one answer. When does the lease renew? What is the total on this invoice? Which section covers the refund policy? Chat with PDF lets you ask in plain words and replies using the text of your document. It suits contracts, insurance policies, user manuals, research papers, and course notes, anywhere the answer is buried in dense text. On larger screens, a preview of your PDF sits next to the conversation. Choose from 16 reply languages, and each language keeps its own chat. The text is read from your file in the browser and used only to answer your questions. There is no summary step to wait for: open the file and type.

Chat with PDF FAQ
Is Chat with PDF free?
Yes. Each answer uses one of your 3 free advanced uses a day, shared with OCR, Office conversion, and the other AI tools. Free works with PDFs up to 15 pages. Upload a new file anytime and start a fresh conversation.
Is it safe to chat with a confidential PDF?
Your PDF text is used only to answer your questions. The file is read in your browser, and only its text is sent over a secure connection, with temporary data removed after processing. For sensitive documents, trim the file to just the pages you need with Extract Pages before you start chatting.
Can I trust the answers?
Answers are based on the text of your PDF, so they reflect what the document actually says. When something matters, such as a payment amount or a cancellation clause, ask where it appears and check it against the page. Specific questions, like "What is the late fee?", give the clearest replies.
Can I ask questions about a contract or insurance policy?
Yes. Try questions like "When does this contract end?", "What happens if I cancel early?", or "What does the policy exclude?" You get a plain-language answer drawn from the document. It is a quick way to understand the terms before you sign, alongside advice from a professional when the stakes are high.
Can I chat with a PDF on my phone?
Yes. Open the page in Safari, Chrome, or any modern browser, choose the PDF from your files, and start typing. On mobile the chat fills the screen for easy reading and typing. On desktop and larger tablets, a preview of the document sits next to the conversation.
How long can my PDF be?
Free covers PDFs up to 15 pages, which suits most contracts, policies, and articles. For a long report or manual, pull out the section you care about with Extract Pages and chat with that part, so every answer stays focused on the pages that matter.
What if the chat says it cannot find the answer?
That usually means the detail is not in the text, or it sits inside a scanned image. Try rephrasing with words the document is likely to use, such as "termination" instead of "quit". If the PDF is a scan, run it through OCR PDF first so the text can be read.
Should I use Chat with PDF or Summarize PDF?
Use Chat with PDF when you already have a specific question in mind. Use Summarize PDF when you want an overview of the whole document first, with follow-up chat afterward. To turn the same file into practice questions for a test, open Generate Questions.
