AskDocs: a question about a vendor agreement answered with the source document and page cited.

The problem

Documents are everywhere. Knowledge is not.

Answers sit scattered across folders and formats, they're hard to retrieve, they're outside any AI model's reach — and much of it can't leave the building. An answer you cannot trace is a rumour.

What we provide

Upload. Index. Ask. Verify. Sources arrive before the answer.

  • Many formats

    PDF (with per-page OCR), Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Markdown, HTML, images, TIFF scans, plain text and code.

  • Page-precise citations

    Every answer points to the exact page, highlighted — and says “not found” rather than guessing.

  • Hybrid search

    Meaning-based and keyword search combined, then re-ranked, so the right passage comes first.

  • Workspaces and access control

    Roles, per-document permissions, single sign-on and an append-only audit log.

  • Works with your AI tools

    Built-in MCP server, so assistants like Claude, Cursor and VS Code can search your archive.

  • Self-hosted

    Runs with Docker Compose on your own server; can run air-gapped.

Built on open source

What it replaces

Retrieval you can read back.

Instead of remembering where something was filed — or pasting documents into an outside AI tool — your team asks, and checks the cited page.
