FAQ 6

What is Socrates?
Socrates is an AI-powered assistant for document analysis, offering secure, local processing on Windows, Mac, or web.

How to use Socrates?
Select PDF or DOCX documents. Ask questions and extract information using AI models. Every response includes citations from the documents.
Is this free?
Yes, there is a free plan that lets you play with all of the features of the product. Using Llama 3 is completely free.
What files are supported?
We currently support PDFs and DOCX files. Email us if you'd like us to support other document formats.
Are my documents kept private and secure?
Absolutely. If you use our Mac or Windows apps, your documents remain local and never leave your computer. You can use open source local LLMs like Llama 3. Or, you can choose to send end-to-end encrypted prompt data to OpenAI. OpenAI does not train on any of this data due to our data processing agreement with them.
Will my data end up in OpenAI’s ChatGPT or GPT-5?
No. Our agreement with OpenAI precludes them from using data we send to them as a subprocessor to train subsequent commercially-available AI models.
