Show HN: I built an AI in 3 days at 16 y/o that lets you chat with your PDFs

https://www.pdfchat.fr
3•safwanbouceta•4mo ago
Hey, it's Safwan

I'm 16 and obsessed with AI and coding. Last year, I was struggling with my homework - especially when teachers gave us long PDF documents to analyze for history and literature classes.

The problem? I'd spend hours scrolling through 30-page PDFs trying to find specific quotes or information for my essays. My friends had the same issue - we were all wasting time instead of actually learning.

I tried Ctrl+F, highlighting, even printing everything out... but I realized what we really needed was to ask questions to our documents like we would to a teacher.

So during summer break, I taught myself more about AI and built the first version of PDF Chat.

Now I can finish my research in minutes instead of hours, and I'm helping students and professionals worldwide do the same. Pretty cool for a high schooler, right?

What is the data retention period and does this share peoples PDF's with third parties? Does the AI retain data it learned about a corporation or individuals PII and corporate secrets from within a PDF?
safwanbouceta•4mo ago
Hello Bender, PDFs are stored until they are deleted. They are not shared with third parties. The AI may temporarily use the information in the PDFs to answer questions, but it is not retained permanently.

Check out this MCP: https://pageindex.ai/mcp, which allows you to chat with any long PDFs (hundreds of pages) beyond the context limit of Claude or ChatGPT.
