Working with Files

TetiAI can analyze various types of files to help you extract information, summarize content, answer questions, and more. This guide explains how to use files in your conversations.

Supported File Types

TetiAI supports a wide range of file formats:

• Documents: PDF, DOCX, TXT, MD
• Spreadsheets: CSV, XLSX
• Presentations: PPT, PPTX
• Images: JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, WEBP

Uploading Files

Method 1: Drag and Drop

• Drag files from your computer directly into the chat area.
• A drop zone will appear. Release your files in this area.
• The files will begin uploading automatically.
• Once uploaded, you can ask TetiAI questions about the files.

Upload Status

After initiating an upload, you'll see the status of each file:

• Uploading: File is in the process of being uploaded
• Completed: File has been successfully uploaded and is ready to use
• Error: Upload failed (hover over for error details)

You can cancel an upload in progress by clicking the X button next to the file.

Working with Uploaded Files

Once your files are uploaded, you can interact with them in various ways:

Asking Questions

Simply type your questions about the file content in the message input field. For example:

• "Summarize this document for me"
• "What are the main points in this PDF?"
• "Extract all the dates mentioned in this file"
• "What's the total in column B of this spreadsheet?"
• "Describe what's in this image"

Multiple Files

When working with multiple files, you can:

• Ask about specific files: "What does the first PDF say about climate change?"
• Compare files: "What are the differences between these two documents?"
• Analyze all files together: "Summarize all these files"

Large Text Files

If you paste a very large text (over 1000 lines) into the chat, TetiAI will automatically convert it to a file upload instead of including it directly in the message. This helps manage the conversation context efficiently.

Tips for Effective File Analysis

• Be Specific: Ask focused questions about the parts of the file you're interested in
• Start Simple: Begin with general questions before diving into details
• Provide Context: Tell TetiAI what aspect of the file you want to analyze
• Clarify When Needed: If TetiAI misunderstands something about the file, correct it
• Use Multiple Questions: Break down complex analyses into a series of simpler questions

Examples of File Analysis Prompts

Here are some effective prompts for different file types:

Documents (PDF, DOCX, TXT)

Spreadsheets (CSV, XLSX)
