PDF.ai

I uploaded a book and it gave me: "I'm sorry, I cannot summarize the 10 key points as the document(s) provided are not specified. Please provide more information or context so I can assist you better." I gave it the title and asked if it had it indexed. Here is the response: "As an AI language model, I do not have access to your uploaded document or any external database. I apologize for the inconvenience. Is there anything else I can assist you with?" I then asked for the title and it said: "I'm sorry, but based on the extracted parts of the document provided, I cannot determine the title of the document. The parts provided only show that there are several pages intentionally left blank. Please provide more information or context so I can assist you better." I asked for the page numbers of the blank pages. It gave those to me which was perplexing since I had assumed up until this point that the document did not load. I then told it that the title of the document was a book title on 5 different pages, which included the first 2 pages. It then confirmed that it could find the title. I asked why it did not find it initially and it gave the following response: "I apologize for any confusion. I may have misunderstood your initial question. If the document you were referring to is a book titled "XYZ" then I can confirm that I do not have it indexed or stored in my database. As an AI language model, I do not have access to external databases or documents unless they are provided to me by the use". So it's clear that the pinecone or other vector database code missed big time. By the way, this product idea is out there in spades in the open source arena. Not sure it's worth $99 for the Google Collab and Pinecone costs. Let me know your thoughts.

There is a reason for the "special" lifetime pricing that was first announced as a very limited, soon-to-disappear deal by Damon. He has now made it a perpetual pricing model to gather as many signups as possible and launched on PH with the same intent. Nothing sells like scarcity especially when AI is attached to it. The app is broken, and the results are inaccurate and useless. I bet anyone who is upvoting has not used the app and is joining the cheering crowd. PDF.ai is a disaster and not even worth calling an alpha. Buying someone else's work and wrapping it under a fancy domain is all that Damon has done.

I used this product, and it is fast. But it gives wrong results. That is a problem as it can mislead the user. Maybe because it uses a cheaper embedding to save cost? I think this needs to be fixed before launching it widely. Lifetime pricing is nice but the product should work properly. It is not disclosed if this uses Open AI and which version. I wish I could rate it better but it needs improvement before you sell it. All the best, Amir

I'm impressed by the thought and effort that went into creating PDF.ai. It's clear that this product has the potential to revolutionize the way we interact with digital documents, and I can't wait to see where it goes from here. Congrats! 💪

I purchased this LTD a few days back when it was promoted as a limited-time offer that will "go away in no time." Kudos to the team. Scarcity marketing works wonders for AI apps these days, and it seems the trick is also working for their PH launch. I noticed some discussions about app performance, which I believe is a genuine concern. I created a Twitter thread to provide feedback a few days ago, but it went unnoticed. Please improve the app since it's not working well. 🤞

This is a great idea - so many PDF chatbots; this is very much a cool space. Can you share what your vector database is helping you do? You mention it, but you don't say why that's special. Maybe that will be something that helps your marketing!

I just tested the demo and it works really well, as long as you formulate a question formally. Here's one thing that did not work for me and I will use this as a benchmark to see the quality of the product improves. "Can you extract any emails from the document?" This was wrong, the email was located on page 1. Same with author's name.

I'm here cus I personally love Damon as a maker haha. (testimonial user). This is an awesome ideas for long and annoying documents that I'm sifting through just to get to a quick answer. I'm curious what other applications people will find from it. Have you heard of anyone using this for anything super out of the ordinary??

I don't know which model you have been using. The responses are really bad. Can't even tell company name from it's financial report. Also, on another note if you are using gpt-3.5 turbo. I am wondering how you will be able to sustain recurring openAI charges with a 99$ lifetime pdf.ai plan.
