Rationale
PDF.ai is primarily a 'Chat with PDF' application, which aligns with the 'AI File Chat' feature. It allows users to ask questions and get summaries from PDF documents, which is a form of semantic search. The pricing page clearly outlines 'Usage Credits & Quotas' and mentions 'Advanced AI Model' for higher tiers. The 'Ultimate' and 'Enterprise' plans also include the ability to 'Invite team members', indicating 'Multi-User Collaboration'. However, it does not offer automated file organization across various file types or cloud storage, focusing specifically on PDF documents.
