Doxy vs Humata

Doxy is a web document-chat app for asking questions about uploaded files and other source material. Users organise files into projects, ask questions in plain language and receive answers that cite the documents used. Supported inputs include PDFs, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, images, audio, HTML, CSV, ZIP and EPUB files, plus web links and YouTube URLs. YouTube questions use the video transcript. Users can upload and ask questions in many languages, with answers in the question’s language where the source supports it. Pro and Business plans generate multiple-choice quizzes with explanations and open-ended practice exercises from selected sources. The Free plan costs nothing for 3 documents, 20 questions monthly and 10 MB files. Pro costs $4.99 a month for 100 documents, 1,000 questions monthly and 50 MB files. Business costs $9.99 a month with unlimited documents and questions and 200 MB files. An account is required.

Humata is a document question-and-answer service for finding information across uploaded files. Ask questions about document contents, search for answers, summarize findings, or compare documents; responses include citations that link to relevant sections in source files. Users can also embed Humata’s PDF AI in a webpage, while its API provides programmatic access to documents, conversations, and answers. The product is available on the web and through an API, with file uploads supported. The Free plan costs nothing and includes one user and up to 60 pages of monthly use. Expert costs $999 a month for three users and 500 pages, with $0.02 per additional page. Team costs $49 a month per user for 10 users and 5,000 pages, with $0.01 per additional page. Humata supports SAML 2.0 sign-on and states that it encrypts customer data at rest and in transit, is SOC 2 Type II compliant, and does not use user-provided data to train its models.
