## What it is
Quill is a fullstack SaaS application built with Next.js 13 App Router, tRPC, Prisma, and Tailwind that lets users upload PDFs and chat with them via AI. It includes Stripe-based free/pro plans, Kinde authentication, streaming chat responses, and Pinecone vector storage with LangChain for document retrieval.

## Use cases
- chat with pdf documents using ai
- build a saas app with next.js and stripe
- rag question answering over uploaded documents
- learn how to build a fullstack next.js 13 app with tRPC
- streaming ai chat responses in a web app
- self-host a document qa chatbot

## When to choose
- you want a reference implementation of a modern Next.js SaaS with AI chat over PDFs
- you're learning tRPC, Prisma, LangChain, and Pinecone integration patterns
- you need a starting point for a subscription-based document chat product

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready, maintained product with active support
- you want a lightweight library rather than a full application
- you need a license-guaranteed codebase for commercial use (no explicit license file)
- you don't want external dependencies on Stripe, Kinde, and Pinecone
