Cited answers

Every answer shows where it came from

ChatDocument answers only from your company documents. Each statement links to the document, section and space it came from. When your documents do not hold the answer, it says so plainly and shows the closest passages it checked, so your team never acts on a guess.

  • Source chip on every sentence, with the document name and section
  • Open the original file at the cited passage
  • A plain "not in your documents" instead of an invented answer
  • Answers in the language of the question, from documents in most major languages
Employee HandbookHR space, section 4.2 Leave
4.2 Annual leave

Annual leave is granted on top of public holidays and is booked through the HR portal at least two weeks ahead.

New employees get 20 vacation days in their first year, counted from the start date. From the second year the allowance grows by one day for every full year of service, up to 25 days.

Unused days carry over to the next year up to a limit of five. Days beyond that limit expire on 31 March.

Leave during the first month is possible with the written consent of the manager and HR.

Permissions

Everyone sees only what they are allowed to see

Permissions come from your sources. If a person cannot open a salary sheet in SharePoint, ChatDocument will never quote it to them. On top of that, every department space has its own owners and members.

  • Private spaces for HR, Legal and leadership

  • Audit log of questions, answers and access on Scale

Answers right where your team already asks

Most questions start in chat. Add the ChatDocument bot to Slack or Microsoft Teams and it answers in direct messages and in channels like #help, #hr and #it, with the same sources and the same permissions as the web app.

Knowledge that stays correct

The answers your team relies on most can be verified by an expert, given an owner and an expiry date. ChatDocument shows the verified version first and reminds the owner when it is time to check it again.

  • Verified answers with an owner, a review date and version history
  • Saved answers the whole team can reuse
  • Questions nobody could answer, collected for the right owner
  • Conflicting and outdated documents flagged before they mislead anyone

FAQ

Which sources can ChatDocument connect?

Google Drive, SharePoint and OneDrive, Confluence, Notion, Dropbox and Slack, plus uploaded PDF, Word, Excel and PowerPoint files and websites such as a help center. Sources stay where they are, and new or edited documents are picked up on their own.

Will people see documents they should not see?

No. Permissions come from your sources, so a person only gets answers from documents they can already open there. Department spaces add their own owners and members, and private spaces keep HR, Legal or leadership material inside the team.

Can ChatDocument make up an answer?

Answers are built only from passages found in your company documents, and every sentence links to its source. When the documents do not hold the answer, ChatDocument says so and shows the closest passages it checked instead of filling the gap from general knowledge.

Are our documents used to train AI models?

No. Your documents are encrypted in transit and at rest, they are never used to train models, and the AI model providers we work with are bound by contract not to train on your content. You can delete a document, a source or the whole workspace at any time.

How does the Slack and Teams bot work?

Add the bot to your workspace, then mention it in a channel or message it directly. It answers with the same sources and permissions as the web app, can answer automatically in help channels, and hands off to a person when the answer is not in your documents. The bot comes with Business and Scale.

Is there a plan for one person?

No. ChatDocument is built for teams, so every plan is a team plan: Team for up to 15 people, Business for up to 50 and Scale for up to 200. There is no free plan; the demo on this page lets you try it on a sample company first.

What counts as a question?

One answer is one question, whether it is asked in the web app, in Slack, in Teams, through the widget or through the API. Questions are shared by the whole team, limits reset each month, and you can move to a larger plan at any time with the difference charged right away.

How do billing and cancellation work?

Choose monthly or yearly billing, which costs half as much per month. Cancel any time and access runs to the end of the paid period. Payments are final, with the exceptions listed in the refund policy.
