Petal

As an AI document chat tool, Petal differs from most by pairing Q&A with a multi-document AI table. Petal is an AI document analysis platform that lets you chat with your own files and get answers drawn from them.

You can also summarize, translate, and draft new content based on what you have uploaded.

The table is the part to try first.

You put several documents into one grid and ask questions in plain conversational language, so contracts, papers or reports can be compared side by side instead of read in separate tabs.

Petal also has team features.

Documents can be shared, and people can add annotations and comments on the same material rather than trading separate summaries.

That is handy for research, education and writing work where several readers go through the same sources.

If you only ever need answers from a single file, the comparison grid will matter less to you, and a simpler chat tool may do.
