What is IngestAI?
What is IngestAI?
IngestAI is a platform that enables anyone to build and deploy AI-powered chatbots trained on their existing document libraries and knowledge bases — without any coding. Users upload their documents, connect their data sources, and IngestAI creates a conversational AI assistant that can answer questions based on that content.
Knowledge Base Chatbot Creation
IngestAI supports a wide range of document types and data sources including PDFs, Word documents, web pages, Notion databases, Google Drive files, and plain text. The platform processes this content into a searchable vector database that the AI queries to provide accurate, source-cited responses. The resulting chatbot can be embedded on websites, deployed to Slack, or accessed via API.
