The tool
Chat with your PDFs
DocTalk — PDF Chat
Open full screen ↗Privacy-first: your files are processed in your browser and never uploaded. The few tools that need a server — running C, C++, Java or Python code, reading a public web page, or a speed test — send only what you enter for that job.
Who it's for
Made for the people who actually use it.
Students
The pain
A 300-page textbook the night before the exam, and no time to find the one definition you need.
The outcome
Ask the question, get the answer with its page number, then turn the chapter into flashcards.
Professionals
The pain
Contracts, policies and reports hide the important clause somewhere on page 47.
The outcome
Ask about notice periods, fees or deadlines and jump straight to the page that says so.
Teachers & researchers
The pain
Comparing several papers or circulars means flipping between files for hours.
The outcome
Load them all and ask across every document at once, with each source cited.

6 things people ask before they use the PDF Chat.
Yes, it's free, with no signup and no API key. Answers come from Google Gemini through Acubens. To keep it free for everyone there is a fair-use limit of about 40 questions every 10 minutes.
No. The PDF is opened and read inside your browser. With each question, only the most relevant page excerpts are sent to Google Gemini to answer it, and we don't store them.
Scanned pages are images with no selectable text. Run them through OCR first (try our Image to Text tool), then load the text PDF.
Long books work: for large files the tool picks the most relevant pages for each question instead of sending the whole document.
Yes. The answer comes back in the language you ask in, even if the PDF is in English.
Yes. On small screens, switch between the PDF and the chat with the tabs at the top.
