AI PDF analyzer for questions that go past a summary
Search+ is an AI PDF analyzer for the questions that come after a summary: what are the themes, which claims are supported, where the argument is weak, and which passage a conclusion depends on. You upload PDFs to a workspace and ask those questions in plain language. Answers are written in prose and cited to the excerpts they use, so analysis stays tied to the text.

Analysis questions and what they return
Examples of analytical questions. Results depend on the PDFs you provide.
Claims sorted by how the document supports them, each cited to the passage that either presents evidence or simply asserts the point.
The chain of passages the conclusion relies on, cited in order, so you can see whether the support is as strong as the wording.
Recurring themes listed with citations to each document where they appear.
The definitions as the document gives them, cited, which helps you read later sections with the author's meanings in mind.
What is an AI PDF analyzer?
The phrase covers two very different tools. One kind is a parser that turns PDF content into structured data: fields, tables, invoice line items. The other kind is a reading tool that helps you analyze what a PDF argues. This page is about the second kind. It reads the text of your PDFs, finds the passages relevant to your question by meaning, and writes an answer that cites those passages. That makes it suited to analytical reading: evaluating arguments, mapping themes, checking whether a conclusion follows from the evidence, and comparing how several documents treat the same question.
How to analyze PDFs with Search+
- Create a workspace for the analysis
Keep the PDFs you are analyzing together, separate from unrelated material.
- Upload and wait for indexing
Drag and drop the PDFs, up to 10 per batch, and wait for each to show as indexed.
- Ask one analytical question at a time
Specific questions give sharper answers than broad ones. Narrow the scope to one PDF when the question is about a single document, and widen it to the whole workspace when you want patterns across documents.
- Test the answer against the source
Open each citation and read the excerpt. If the support looks thin, ask a follow-up about that passage. The conversation is saved, so you can return to the thread and continue the analysis later.
What the analyzer supports
Trace a claim back to the passages that support it.
Find themes and repeated claims across a set of documents.
Ask where two or more documents differ and get citations to each source.
Open a citation to read the excerpt behind the answer.
Passages are found by meaning, not only by exact words, inside the workspace you choose.
Ask across every PDF in the workspace or narrow to a single document.
PDFs and conversations stay saved in the workspace, so an analysis can continue over days and pick up where it stopped.
Put evidence standards or exclusions in Workspace Context and they apply to every question.
Ask across the whole workspace for the themes or claims that come up in more than one document. The answer lists them with a citation to each passage, so you can see whether a theme rests on one strong source or several weaker ones.
Limits of the analyzer
Analysis answers stay in the conversation. There is no export to a file, so copy what you need into your own notes or report.
Tables and charts are read as text, not as images, so visual patterns in a chart are not analyzed.
AI answers can be incomplete or inaccurate. Treat each answer as a lead to check in the cited excerpt.
Search+ compared with a parser and with reading alone
| Need | PDF parser | Reading alone | Search+ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pull invoice fields into a table | Built for it | Manual copying | Not supported |
| Judge whether a conclusion is supported | Not its job | Slow and careful reading | Ask, then check the cited chain |
| Map themes across many PDFs | Not its job | Notes across files | Ask across the workspace |
| Find where a term is defined | Not its job | Search and skim | Ask and open the citation |
