Review PDF.ai?

PDF.ai has received mixed reviews, with significant criticism from users regarding its functionality and customer service. Users report issues with basic features, such as listing PDF titles and providing accurate document summaries. Some users have experienced difficulties canceling subscriptions and receiving support. In contrast, a maker review from UPDF highlights advantages like better summary quality and translation capabilities. While some users appreciate the concept and design, the overall sentiment suggests that PDF.ai needs improvements to meet user expectations effectively.

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.

As explained in my first comment, the product is still in MVP. You can get a direct answer for a specific question, but requests like summary and creative replies are not yet supported. We set the temperate to 0 just to make sure we only give the answer that's accurate and directly from the doc. Of course, we will improve our product in the future!

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.

Not to rain on anybody's parade, but this product has a VERY small moat. Here's a free version of it that requires using your own OpenAI key: https://knowledgegpt.streamlit.app/ (I'm not affiliated with this product in any way -- I just happened to be curious about Streamlit.) The PDF.ai design is really nice. It's very well executed. I just doubt there's much of a long-term future here.
