Google Drive Integration

When you click google drive button you will be taken to google authentication. Once you sign in you will see all of your files on a picker.

Coati will only read and index the files you have selected. This is an intentional decision, we want to enable users to dictate what they want to store in our platform.

We might allow you to index your whole google drive in the future on the pro plan.

Note: .doc or .docx documents are ingested as pdf

Where is my information Stored

Following happens when you add a document:

  • All the textual information from your document is parsed along with some structure and ingested into a secure vector store.

  • Copy of your document is also stored in encrypted storage in coati cloud

When you ask a question:

  • Relevant docs are found from the vector store and LLM is asked to answer the question

  • LLM which is openAI at the moment only knows about the relevant context at a time. it is not aware of your entire data
