Humata

Humata is an AI-powered document analysis platform that transforms how teams interact with their files. It allows you to upload documents — PDFs, technical papers, reports, and more — and then ask questions, get summaries, compare documents, and extract insights as if you had a personal research assistant who has read every single page.

Founded by CY Xu and backed by Google's Gradient Ventures with a $3.5M seed round, Humata serves millions of users including researchers, legal professionals, engineers, and students. It operates on the principle that most people can't read all their documents — but AI can. The platform is available at humata.ai.

• Unlimited File Uploads — Upload as many documents as you want; Humata indexes them for instant querying
• Instant Answers — Get answers to specific questions about your documents faster than you can read a sentence
• Citation Tracking — Every answer includes highlighted citations linking back to the source document, so you can verify every insight
• Summarization — Generate concise summaries of long documents, technical papers, and reports
• Document Comparison — Compare multiple documents side by side to find differences and commonalities
• Unlimited Questions — Ask follow-up questions and refine summaries iteratively until you're satisfied

Humata combines advanced document parsing, semantic embeddings, and large language models to create a seamless document Q&A experience:

1. Upload — Drag and drop your documents (PDF, DOC, TXT, and more) into Humata's interface
2. Indexing — Humata parses the text, breaks it into semantic chunks, and creates a searchable vector index
3. Ask — Type any question about your documents in natural language
4. Retrieve & Generate — Humata finds the most relevant passages and uses AI to generate a precise answer with citations

Humata offers enterprise-grade security features for teams handling sensitive documents:

• Secured Private Cloud — Team files are stored in isolated data rooms with controlled user access
• Encryption at Rest — Enterprise-grade 256-bit SHA encryption for all uploaded files
• Role-Based Security — Granular permission controls for team members with different access levels
• Single Sign-On — SSO support with Okta, Google, and SAML for enterprise teams
