Humata

Humata is a web-based AI agent for students, researchers, knowledge workers, and teams that turns uploaded documents (especially PDFs) into an interactive, searchable knowledge base for fast analysis, insights, and answers.

Key capabilities include:

• Document Q&A with citations, so users can ask questions across uploaded files and trace each answer back to the relevant source passages.
• AI summaries and rewrites — Generate concise summaries of long papers, reports, or entire document sets, with the ability to iteratively refine outputs through follow-up prompts.
• Multi-format document support, including PDFs and Word documents, with Team plan support for OCR on images and scanned text
• Team collaboration features (Team plan) — Shared workspaces, role-based access controls, folder-level permissions, and secure team file management.

Pricing: Freemium. Free plan ($0) includes up to 60 pages and 10 answers. Paid plans include Expert ($9.99/month) with usage-based additional pages, Team ($49/user/month) with higher page limits and team permissions and Enterprise plan for custom pricing for larger organizations.

What makes it notable is its focus on file-grounded answers with built-in citations and usage-based scaling, making it a practical alternative to general chatbots when users need document-specific, verifiable responses.
