A FastAPI-based research assistant that lets users have a conversation with any PDF research paper by extracting text, generating embeddings, and querying the OpenAI API with cited sources and page numbers. The repository is no longer actively maintained, with a successor available at chat.portal.so.

Use cases

  • chat with a research paper pdf
  • ask questions about an academic paper
  • summarize a pdf with an llm
  • get cited answers from a document
  • self-host a pdf question-answering app

When to choose

  • you want a simple self-hosted RAG app for chatting with PDFs
  • you need a minimal FastAPI + OpenAI + Redis reference implementation
  • you want answers with source text and page citations

When to avoid

  • you need actively maintained software with bug fixes
  • you want a production-ready or scalable document chat system
  • you prefer not to depend on the OpenAI API
  • you want the newer features available in the successor project
