Short answer

AskTuring currently supports PDF, DOC, DOCX, PPT, PPTX, RTF, TXT, and MD files.

Full explanation

You can store the following document types in an Index, and AskTuring will make their contents searchable through your chosen LLM:

  1. PDF (preferred)

  2. Microsoft Word (DOC, DOCX)

  3. Microsoft PowerPoint (PPT, PPTX)

  4. Rich Text Format (RTF)

  5. Plain text files (TXT)

  6. Markdown files (MD)

PDF files are preferred because they maintain formatting and are easy for AskTuring to process accurately. Other supported formats will still work well.

AskTuring automatically processes scanned files with OCR during upload, so even image-based documents become searchable.

We are always adding support for new document types. If you have a format you want to use that is not currently supported, check platform updates or contact support to request it.
