SmartPDF

PDFConverse is a Python tool that allows you to interact with PDF documents using AI, leveraging the Gemini API to provide intelligent responses to queries about PDF content. It optimizes token usage and enables focused analysis of specific page ranges.

Features

• Interact with individual pages or page ranges in your PDF
• Run AI-powered prompts on specific sections of your document
• Avoid the problem of passing too much information to the model
• Save tokens by targeting specific pages or ranges
• Built-in sanity checks for better performance and reliability

Installation

You can install PDFConverse using pip:

pip install pdfconverse

Usage

Here's a basic example of how to use PDFConverse: This example shows how to use it directly from files if you have acccess to underlying file system.

import os
from pdfconverse import PDFConverse
from pdfconverse.models import FilePath,GeminiSetup

# Set up your PDF path and Gemini API key. Assuming you have a .env file with the Gemini API key
file_path = FilePath(path="./path/to/your/document.pdf")
gemini_setup=GeminiSetup(api_key=os.getenv("GEMINI_API_KEY"),model="gemini-1.5-flash")

# Initialize PDFConverse
pdfconverse = PDFConverse(gemini_setup=gemini_setup,file_path=file_path)

# Get a summary of the first page
summary = pdfconverse.page(page_start=0, page_end=0).prompt("Give me a summary")
print(summary)

This examples shows where you are streaming eg if you need to use s3

file_path = "./src/pdfconverse/samples/gemini_test_file.pdf"
with open(file_path, "rb") as f:
    pdf_bytes = BytesIO(f.read())
pdfconverse = PDFConverse(gemini_setup=gemini_setup,bytes=pdf_bytes)
# Get a summary of the first page
summary = pdfconverse.page(page_start=0, page_end=0).prompt("Give me a summary")
print(summary)

Use Cases

1. Reading Aid: Use PDFConverse as a reading assistant, summarizing individual pages as you go through a document.
2. Targeted Analysis: Focus on specific sections of a large document without processing unnecessary content.
3. Document Q&A: Ask questions about particular pages or sections of your PDF.

Caution

While PDFConverse can summarize or interact with entire books, please be aware that this may lead to expensive bills from the Gemini API. Always monitor your usage and costs.
