What Albus AI is
A cloud workspace that turns a pile of files into something you can question. Upload PDFs, audio, images, text documents or web pages and it indexes them semantically, files them automatically, and answers with references back to where the answer came from.
It targets teams whose problem is retrieval rather than storage: the material exists, nobody can find it.
What you can do with it
- Load project material, research papers, SOPs or meeting records
- Search by meaning instead of filename
- Get page and chapter references so answers can be verified
- Skip folder tidying through automatic organisation
- Extend beyond uploaded material with conversation mode and web search
Who it is for
- Researchers and consulting teams
- Companies with substantial document collections that need searching and citing
What to watch out for
- Retrieval quality follows input quality: poor scans, confusing filenames and duplicate versions all degrade it
- Settle permissions, retention and access control before uploading contracts, client profiles or internal documents
- Use the citations to open the source rather than quoting the answer directly
Pros & cons
✓ What we like
- Semantic search across mixed media

! What to watch out for

FAQ
How is this different from cloud storage?
Storage keeps files. This indexes contents, organises them and supports conversational search with citations.
What file types work?
PDFs, audio, images, text files and web pages are listed as supported inputs.
Can I cite what it returns?
Use it as a lookup aid, but open the original document and check page, paragraph and context before citing formally.
