Want a custom AI assistant
that answers from your documents?
Here's one we built.

Entexis builds custom AI document assistants tailored to how your team actually reads: contract assistants, policy lookups, manual search, knowledge-base agents over your own files. Powered by retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) so every answer is grounded in your document with quoted passages. Multilingual out of the box (English, Hindi, Spanish, French & more). Works on documents in any major language. The tool below is a working example: drop a PDF, Word doc, or text file and ask questions. Try it. Then tell us what we should build for you.

This is a working showcase, not a SaaS product. The pipeline is real. We built it as an end-to-end example of what we ship to real clients. Drop any document; nothing is written to disk.

The Impact

What a custom AI document assistant delivers.

Typical outcomes when a business hires Entexis to build a custom AI document assistant (using retrieval-augmented generation, or RAG), drawn from real engagements. Numbers shift per use case, but the shape of the impact stays the same.

Grounded
Answers, with quotes
Every answer cites the exact passage it came from. If the document doesn't cover it, the AI says so. It never fabricates.
10+ languages
Multilingual out of the box (English, Hindi, Spanish, French & more)
Documents in any major language: contracts, policies, manuals, RFPs. Mixed-language repositories work too.
10-40 hrs
Saved per week, per team
Legal, ops, sales, and support teams stop skimming 80-page PDFs. Ask the question, get the citation, move on.
Your stack
Your model, your storage
OpenAI, Anthropic, self-hosted Llama, Mistral. Postgres pgvector, Pinecone, Weaviate. Your auth, your audit log.
2 weeks
From kickoff to live
Basic version tuned to your document types ships in about two weeks. Then we layer on integrations, audit logs, and multi-tenant access.
Inside this build

What we built for this Q&A demo.
Same building blocks for yours.

Every piece below was built end-to-end by the Entexis team. The same components (document ingestion, semantic search (embeddings), retrieval, grounded answers with citations) get re-tuned and re-shaped for your document types. (For the technical buyers: yes, this is a real RAG pipeline.)

Real document understanding

The AI doesn't skim. It reads the whole file and finds the passage that answers your specific question, even when the wording differs.

Grounded answers, with quotes

Every answer comes from your document. The AI quotes the exact line(s) it used. If the answer isn't in there, it says so. It won't fabricate.

Ask anything specific

"What is the renewal clause?" "What is the total cost?" "Which section covers data retention?" Get a direct answer instead of skimming 80 pages.

Private by default

The document is held in memory for an hour so you can ask follow-ups, then dropped automatically. Nothing written to disk; nothing logged. Custom builds support self-hosted models and zero data retention.

PDF, Word, text

Drop in the file the team actually has. We extract the text automatically. Up to 8 MB. (Scanned image PDFs need OCR. A custom build adds it.)

Built to wire into your stack

For a real deployment we plug it into your contract repository, knowledge base, or wiki. Your auth, your storage, your model choice: including self-hosted Llama or Mistral if your data can't leave the building.

Multilingual (English, Hindi, Spanish, French & more)

Documents in any major language: Hindi, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, Mandarin, Portuguese. Mixed-language repositories work too. Answers come back in your question's language.

How this assistant works

Drop a doc, ask a question,
get a grounded answer.

Watch the answer come back with the exact lines from your document it used. The same retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pattern that Entexis ships into production for client document stores, minus the engineering jargon.

01

Upload your document

PDF, Word, or plain text up to 8 MB. The AI reads it in seconds. No setup, no login.

02

The AI reads it

The whole document gets prepared so the AI can find the parts that match a question, even when your wording differs from the document's.

03

You ask anything

The AI finds the parts of the document most relevant to your question and uses only those parts to answer.

04

Grounded answer back

The answer cites the exact lines used. Keep asking follow-ups. Your document stays loaded for an hour.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this AI document assistant a product I can buy off the shelf?
No. This demo isn't a product we sell. Entexis is a custom SaaS, software, and AI development company. We build tailored AI document assistants for each client: end-to-end, on your stack, wired into your document repositories. (For the technical buyers: yes, the underlying pattern is RAG, retrieval-augmented generation.) The demo above is one example of what a custom build looks like; we'll build something similarly tailored for your team.
How accurate is the RAG answer?
Answers come from your document only. If the document covers it, the answer is grounded and quotable. If it doesn't, the AI says so plainly. It will not invent facts to fill gaps.
What languages does the RAG handle?
Fully multilingual out of the box. Documents in English, Hindi, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Arabic, Mandarin, and most major European and Asian languages produce equally grounded answers. Ask your question in any language; the answer comes back in the same language. Mixed-language repositories (e.g. an English contract + a Spanish addendum) are handled cleanly. The AI retrieves from each in its native language and writes the answer in your question's language.
How does the RAG pipeline work here?
Three steps, in plain language. First, the AI reads your document. Second, you ask a question. Third, the AI finds the parts of the document that match your question and answers using only those parts. That's what makes the answers grounded instead of guessed.
What file formats can I upload?
PDF, Word document (.docx), and plain text up to 8 MB. The PDF must contain real text (you can highlight and copy from it). Scanned PDFs that are just images won't work. Those need OCR first, which a custom build handles.
Is my document stored?
No. The document and its embeddings are held in memory only for an hour so you can keep asking follow-up questions, then dropped automatically. Nothing is written to disk and we don't log document content. For a custom build, your data stays on your stack: including options with zero data retention and fully self-hosted private models.
Can Entexis build a custom RAG application for our team?
Yes. That's the day job. For a legal team we wire it into the contract repository so any contract is one click from being asked questions, with answer audit logs for compliance. For operations we wire it into runbooks and SOPs. For sales we wire it into your knowledge base and product specs. The result lives on your stack with your choice of model (OpenAI, Anthropic, self-hosted Llama, Mistral) and your choice of vector store (in-process, Postgres pgvector, Pinecone, Weaviate).
How long does a custom RAG build take?
The basic version of what you see on this page, tuned to your document types and hosted on your stack, typically ships in about two weeks. Wiring it into a document store, an authentication system, an audit log for citations, or a multi-tenant setup for different teams adds scope from there.
Will our document content be used to train AI models?
No. We use enterprise-grade AI partners whose policies state that content sent through their interface is not used to train models. For a custom build, we ship with whichever AI partner your team prefers: including options with zero data retention, contractual no-training guarantees, or fully self-hosted private models so document content never leaves your environment.
What kinds of documents work best?
Anything with structured prose: contracts, policies, manuals, reports, RFPs, research papers, technical specs, internal wikis, knowledge base exports. Spreadsheets and image-heavy documents work less well in the public demo; for those, a custom build extracts the structure first (table parsing, chart-to-text, OCR for scans).
How is this different from ChatPDF or LangChain?
ChatPDF is a hosted product: your document goes to their stack. LangChain and LlamaIndex are libraries you'd still need to wire into a working application. We build the production application end-to-end on your stack: ingestion, embeddings, vector store, retrieval, the chat UI, evaluation harness, audit log, and integration with your auth and document repositories. You own the code.
