What Are Files in Writingmate?

Files act as additional data sources that you can upload to provide more context or knowledge to your models and assistants. You can upload any file format that holds valuable information, such as:

• Business documents
• Scientific papers
• Learning materials
• Company-specific data

Word files, spreadsheets, csv files, json files, code, other types of text, or even entire databases. These files are then used by the AI inside the platform. They will help to generate more contextually relevant responses, making the interaction more precise and customized.

Example of File Uploads in Action

1. Example 1: Let’s say you're working with an AI assistant to help you draft legal contracts. By uploading a file that contains your company’s legal policies, the assistant will reference this file to ensure that any contracts it drafts are compliant with your internal policies.
2. Example 2: A student preparing for an exam can upload textbooks or research papers to have the assistant reference these specific materials when generating study questions or summaries.
