Chat with Documents and Images
Voilà now supports the ability to upload and chat with documents and images.
The beta version of this feature is currently being tested as part of the Voilà Ultimate plan (as well as equivalent plans and users with their own OpenAI API key). This feature has been added to version 1.5.9 of Voilà and is currently being rolled out.
How to use this feature?
Simply drag&drop/paste documents and images into Voilà, or click the "paperclip" icon in the bottom of Voilà dialog to select files from your computer.
Limitations:
- Maximum of 3 attachments, 2.5MB per file.
- Supports these document types:
.pdf, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .csv, .xml, .json, .yaml, .yml, .txt, .md, .html
We will be expanding suport for other document types as well as trying to increase the file size limit in our future updates. Please note that this feature does not have the OCR capability at the moment - i.e. uploading PDFs with scanned images will not work.
