Ask questions about any document
Paste in a document and ask it questions in plain English. Get precise answers without reading every page.
For the best results: Upload a document and ask any question about its contents. Works well for contracts, reports, research papers, or any long document you need to interrogate quickly.
What is Document Q&A?
Document Q&A is a free AI productivity tool that takes an uploaded document and answers plain-English questions about it, without you reading every page. It routes your request to the model best suited to it and returns accurate summaries, translations, action items, and structured knowledge from documents and audio in seconds, with no account required and nothing kept for knowledge workers, students, and managers who process large volumes of information daily once the session ends.
- ✦Open and use it, no account required for any text tool
- ✦Documents route automatically to a model suited to the task
- ✦Files and text are processed for your result, then cleared with the session
Models: It routes across leading models including Gemini, Llama and Mistral families, picking the best available one per request. The exact model used is shown after every response.
See it in action
Before signing, a first-time renter uploads their tenancy agreement to check one specific thing about breaking the lease early.
What you type
[Uploaded: tenancy-agreement.pdf] Question: If I move out three months before the lease ends, what am I actually up for?
What you get
Based on the agreement, breaking the lease early makes you liable for: • Rent until a new tenant is found or the lease ends, whichever is sooner (Clause 14.2). • A reletting fee equal to one week's rent plus advertising costs (Clause 14.3). The document does not cap how long you stay liable, so the exact cost depends on how quickly it's re-let. This isn't legal advice — check your state's tenancy rules.
Tip: Ask about consequences and specific numbers ("what does it say about the bond", "how much notice for a rent increase") rather than "summarize this" — the tool is strongest when it can point to a clause. Follow up with "quote the exact wording" on anything that matters, so you're reading the contract's language, not a paraphrase, before you sign.

- 2The best-suited model extracts, transforms, or organizes it.
- 3Copy the structured result into wherever the work happens.
Tips for the best results
- Paste the whole relevant document first, then ask, since the answer is only as good as the text it can see.
- Ask one precise question at a time rather than a bundle, so each answer stays focused and easy to verify.
- Quote a term the way the document phrases it when you know it, to help the tool find the right passage.
- Ask it to quote the exact line an answer came from when the stakes are high, so you can check the wording yourself.
- If it says the answer is not in the document, believe it and check the source rather than rephrasing until it guesses.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Will it show me where in the document an answer came from?
Make that part of your question, 'what's the notice period, and quote the clause it comes from', and you get the answer with its source passage beside it. It's the single best habit for this tool, because verifying a quoted line takes seconds while trusting a paraphrase takes faith.
What happens if the answer isn't actually in the document?
Ideally it tells you the document doesn't cover it, but AI sometimes fills gaps with general knowledge instead. If a response seems oddly well-informed, ask 'is that stated in the text I gave you, or are you inferring it?', that question reliably pushes it back to the source material.
Can I ask a string of questions about one document?
Paste the document once and keep asking. It stays in context for the whole conversation. That's the efficient pattern: one paste, then work through everything you need to know. The context is gone once the tab closes, so gather your questions and cover them in a single sitting.
How is this better than just searching the document?
Search matches words; this answers meaning. A clause saying 'either party may end this agreement with four weeks' written notice' never contains the word 'termination', so Ctrl+F misses it, asking 'how do I cancel?' finds it. It also connects information spread across sections, which no keyword search can do.
I'm pasting a confidential contract, who ends up seeing it?
Your text is processed for the session by third-party AI providers under their own terms, isn't stored once the tab closes, and isn't used for training. No account is attached to anything you paste. For very sensitive material, replacing party names and figures with placeholders still leaves the tool perfectly usable.
Can I ask it to compare two things in the document?
Yes. As well as looking up single facts, it can compare and contrast items that appear in different places, such as two pricing tiers, two clauses or two candidates. Ask it directly, for example which option has the lower fee, and it will pull the relevant parts together for you.
Does it work on documents in other languages?
Yes. You can paste a document in one language and ask your questions in another, so you might query a contract written in German using plain English and get the answer in English. This is useful for cross-border paperwork where the document is not in your first language.
Is there a free document Q&A tool with no upload or sign up?
Yes. This one is free, needs no account, and you paste the text in rather than uploading a file. Ask your questions in plain English and read the answers in the browser. Because you paste the content, there is no file left sitting in an upload folder somewhere.
What are the usage limits?
Text-based productivity tools are unmetered during the current free launch phase; audio-based ones share the audio fair-use limits since transcription costs real compute. Normal daily use never notices either. Paid plans with higher limits and priority model access are coming soon.
