Knowledge Agents — Overview
What is Knowledge Agents?
Knowledge Agents lets you build a private knowledge base and chat with AI agents that answer only from it. Add notes, PDFs, Word files, web pages and results from the Image & Video to Text Extractor, then pick a ready-made agent and start asking questions.
Every answer is grounded in your sources and cites them, so you can check where a fact came from. If something isn't in your sources, the agent says so instead of guessing.
There are four ready-made agent types: a Q&A Assistant, a Summarizer / Report Writer that produces downloadable Word documents, a Data Extractor that builds tables you can save to Excel, and a Tutor / Quiz Maker for flashcards and quizzes. Each one can have its own name, tone and extra instructions.
What does Knowledge Agents do?
A personal research assistant that never strays from your material:
- Multiple knowledge bases, each with editable sources
- Add sources from text, PDF, Word, TXT/Markdown, web links and Media Extractor
- Four ready-made agent types with custom names, tone and instructions
- Strict answers with source citations — no outside knowledge
- Saved chats per agent with their own links
- Download answers as Word, Markdown or Excel tables

Where it fits
Load a staff handbook and let colleagues ask the Q&A agent instead of searching PDFs.
Combine articles and notes, then ask the Report Writer for an executive brief.
Have the Data Extractor list every name, date and amount across your sources in one table.
Feed in lecture notes and slide extractions, then get quizzed by the Tutor.

The bottom line
The most useful AI assistant is one that knows your material and admits when it doesn't. Build the knowledge base once, then let the right agent do the reading for you.
