Hi, team. I've tried Recap and I have to say it's a brilliant idea! There is an issue when I use it to understand a PDF of my product. It seems like cannot understand the pic in a doc very well, right? Will it be supported in the future?

Hi team, congratulations on the launch! Recap is a powerful and practical learning tool. Itās clear that your team has made great efforts. Good luck for your launch!
This sounds intriguing! I'm curious, how does the AI actually generate these multi-perspective questions? Also, what kind of materials does it support? It would be great to understand the UX behind this tool. Is there a special way for Makers to integrate it into their current workflows? Looking forward to more details on this launch!
@helloleo By understanding context, the AI can generate questions from multiple agents(like teacher, analysts, manager, etc.) The supported materials in Recap includes: URL, PDF, PPT, DOC, JPG, ect.
@helloleo
1.Each specific industry has its own unique set of credible sources and perspectives for understanding knowledge, which forms the foundation for generating such a wide variety of questions.
2. Currently, we support websites, PDFs, PPTs, DOCs, Markdown files, images, Youtube videos, and more. In the future, even more formats will be supported-stay tuned!
3. For markers, we believe Recap can perfectly replace your browser bookmarks and most knowledge base products. Of course, we also plan to iterate further and support more workflow integrations.
