How many times have you wished you could get the answers or know the contents of a PDF file without opening it? Now, with the influx of tools with AI features, it is possible and as easy as asking a question. You must have seen lots of talk-to-PDF or chat-with-PDF apps popping up recently.
But there’s a catch!
The Chat-to-PDF or talk-to-PDF apps are costly. They tend to provide a few features for a lot of money. Hence, we will show you how to build a talk-toPDF of your own for pretty much free.
For that, we need to spend some time building it. This tutorial will show you how to create your own app using Replit, OpenAI, and an online tool known as LlamaIndex.
By the end of this tutorial, you’ll learn how to:
- Build an app on Replit that uses LlamaIndex and give it a test run.
- Use Replit's AI copilot to modify the code, allowing you to ask your own questions.
- Design a web interface for the app to improve its usability.
Before starting this tutorial, you’ll need:
- Replit account (signup is easy and free!)
- OpenAI platform with $10 in credit. This is separate from your ChatGPT subscription.
Let’s get started. Shall we?
