NL Doc Search

Point it at your own docs, notes, and wikis and ask questions in plain language, getting answers that cite the exact source passage and refuse to guess when the docs don't actually say. It is RAG built for people who need the answer to be right, not just fluent.

🎯The Problem

People building knowledge-retrieval over their own documents keep hitting the same wall: the responses have to make sense and not be made up. Generic AI search over a Notion workspace or a folder of PDFs will happily fabricate a confident answer that sounds right and is wrong, which is worse than no answer when you are quoting it to a customer or making a decision. Founders try to wire up their own RAG and either get hallucinated answers (no grounding) or 'I don't know' to questions the docs plainly cover (bad retrieval). They want trustworthy answers with receipts, not vibes.

💡The Solution

Connect Notion, Google Drive, Confluence, or a folder of files. It chunks and embeds them, and on each question retrieves the relevant passages, answers strictly from them, and shows the exact source snippet behind every claim. Crucially, when retrieval confidence is low it says 'the docs don't cover this' instead of inventing an answer, with a tunable strictness dial.

👥Target Users

Solo founders and teams of 1-20 with a sprawling Notion, Drive, or Confluence knowledge base who need reliable internal Q&A and have been burned by hallucinated generic AI search.
