Oited Log in to the demo
1.0 An AI assistant for your documents

Ask the manual. Get the page.

Qited answers questions from your manuals, specifications and policies in plain English. Every answer quotes the document word for word, names the section and page, and opens that page with the line highlighted. When the documents don't say, it says so.

Live demo by invitation, with the admin console and knowledge base. Request a code.

2.0 The problem

The answer is on page 247. Nobody is going to find it.

Your documents already hold the answers people need. They're just hundreds of pages long, so people call or email your staff instead, and your experts spend the day reading the manual out loud.

Option 1

Search the PDF

Finds every page that mentions the word. Then you read them all, and hope one of them is the page that matters.

Option 2

Ask a generic chatbot

Answers fast and sounds sure. It can't show you where the answer came from, and sometimes it didn't come from anywhere.

Qited

Ask Qited

Answers in plain English from your documents only, quotes the page it came from, and opens it. When the documents don't cover it, it says so.

Every answer comes with its source, so nobody has to take the AI's word for it.

3.0 How it works

Your documents in. Cited answers out.

No training project, no tagging, no model to tune. Upload the PDFs and Qited builds the knowledge base.

3.1

Add your documents

Upload a PDF in the admin console. It's read page by page into passages that keep their section and page number, and it's searchable in seconds.

3.2

People ask in plain English

On your website or intranet, with no account to create. Your shorthand and acronyms are understood, and follow-up questions keep their context.

3.3

They get the page

Each answer quotes the source and cites the section and page. One click opens the page with the quoted lines highlighted. Every quote is checked word for word before it's shown.

4.0 Answers

Every answer shows its work.

What people see when they ask, shown here with sample documents.

The page, with the line highlighted

One click opens the cited page with the quoted words marked, so nobody has to take the AI's word for it.

Employee Handbook · Section 4.3 · page 18

Drawings open to the sheet

Ask about a standard detail, a figure or a table, and the answer goes straight to that sheet, not just the paragraph that mentions it.

Permitting Guide · Detail 3-2 · page 14

Cases, not guesses

When the answer depends on the situation, it lists each case with its own citation instead of picking one.

Section 3.1.2 · Section 3.1.3 · Section 3.1.5

It knows what it doesn't know

Unfamiliar shorthand, someone else's rules, or a question the documents don't cover gets an honest answer and your team's contact, never a guess. Personal details are removed before a question leaves the browser.

5.0 Admin console

An admin console, out of the box.

Everything the people who own the documents need on day one: fix misses, add documents, change editions cleanly, and see how it's used. No developer in the loop.

  1. A visitor marks an answer as not helpful.
  2. It lands in the feedback queue, with every passage that was searched.
  3. An admin teaches the term once: “PTO” means vacation.
  4. Re-test. The same question now gets a cited answer.
  5. Resolved, and recorded in the audit log.

The screens behind it

Fix a miss in minutes

Thumbs-down answers land in a queue with every passage that was searched. Teach it a term, re-test live, and resolve it.

Add a document without a developer

Upload it, ask it test questions in staging, then publish. A 317-page manual is searchable in under ten seconds.

Change editions cleanly

A new edition waits in staging while your test questions run against both. Changed answers are flagged, and one switch makes it live.

Accuracy and cost, measured

An accuracy test against your target, model cost per question, and limits that keep spend in check.

Reference libraryYour acronyms, preferred terms and guidance, so shorthand reads the way your staff mean it.
Audit logEvery admin change recorded: who made it, what changed, and when.
Usage reportsTop questions, unanswered topics and feedback, exported to CSV.
6.0 Knowledge base

A knowledge base that builds itself.

This is the part other tools leave to you. Qited turns a stack of PDFs into a knowledge base it can quote from, and every passage keeps its document, edition, section and page.

7.0 Deployment

Built to pass your IT review.

How a production deployment is set up. More detail is in Security and data.

Your cloud

Runs in your cloud tenant, in the region you choose, with the AI model your organization approves.

Your website

One embed on your existing pages. No new site for the public to learn.

Your sign-in

Admins use your single sign-on. The public never needs an account.

Your records

Questions and feedback kept as long as you choose. Personal details are removed in the browser, before a question is sent.

Accessible

Built to WCAG 2.1 AA and checked with axe on every screen. See the accessibility statement.

Predictable cost

Per-visitor and daily limits. Past them, people get your team's contact instead of a model call.

8.0 Who it's for

Wherever people ask what the manual says.

8.1

Public works and utilities

Contractors and developers get answers on standards, specs and permits before they call your engineers.

Design standards · Specifications · Permitting guides
8.2

Engineering and construction

Project teams check requirements and details on site, with the sheet in hand.

Specifications · Standard details · Submittal rules
8.3

Operations and maintenance

Crews find the procedure and the setting they need without paging through a binder.

SOPs · Equipment manuals · Safety programs
8.4

HR, policy and compliance

Employees get a straight answer from the handbook, with the policy section to back it up.

Handbooks · Policies · Compliance rules
9.0 Questions

Questions people ask first.

9.1Does it make things up?

It answers only from your documents and shows the quote it relied on, checked word for word against the page before the answer appears. If the documents don't cover a question, it says so and points people to your team.

9.2What can it read?

PDFs, including long manuals with tables and standard detail sheets. Pages that are scanned images need a text layer first, so those go through OCR when your documents are loaded.

9.3How long does it take to add a document?

Minutes. Upload it in the admin console, try a few questions in staging, and publish. In the demo, a 317-page manual was searchable in under ten seconds.

9.4Which AI model does it use?

The model your organization approves, under your organization's own agreement with the provider.

9.5What happens when a new edition comes out?

Load it into staging. Your test questions run against both editions, changed answers are flagged for review, and one switch makes the new edition live. Older editions stay visible to admins.

10.0 The demo

See it answer from real manuals.

The live demo runs on about 900 pages of published engineering standards: specifications, design criteria and construction rules, with the full admin console behind it.
