Spin up a bubble for whatever you're working on, add your files, and ask in plain language. You get answers with exact citations — document name, page number, and section. Add an organization when a few of you share the same library.
Chen (2019) reports that shorter, spaced study sessions improved long-term retention compared to a single long cram session [1], and that the benefit held across both vocabulary and procedural tasks [2].
Works with everything you already have
PDFs, notes, decks, scans, transcripts, images. Whatever you saved is probably in a dozen folders and formats. Finding the right passage means digging through tabs, re-reading whole documents, or guessing keywords that might not match.
BubbleRag indexes what you upload. You ask once, get a straight answer, and jump to the exact source—file name and location included. Every time.
Set up an isolated knowledge space. Give it a name, a color, and optional instructions for tone and focus—narrative summaries, bullet points, or strict quote-and-cite mode.
Upload PDFs, spreadsheets, presentations, Word docs, images, videos, audio. BubbleRag extracts the content, chunks it, and creates embeddings automatically.
Ask the way you'd describe what you're trying to remember. Get a clear answer with the exact document name, page number, and section. Click any citation to open the source file and verify. Pay-as-you-go users can also turn cited answers into downloadable findings reports.
A bubble is a walled-off set of documents and chats. Each bubble has its own files, optional custom AI instructions, and (if you use shared spaces) its own access. Nothing bleeds across bubbles: your thesis PDFs stay separate from renovation manuals or a client folder. Same account, tidy boundaries.
“Cite author and year. Prefer paraphrase with page numbers; quote only when short.”
“Keep answers short. Link to the doc section. Assume we know the basics.”
“Plain language. If the manual disagrees with a guess, say so and cite the page.”
Most people start with personal bubbles — your files stay yours, capped only by your plan. When you want a shared library, create an organization and attach bubbles to it so everyone who belongs can chat against the same documents.
Bubbles you own yourself never mix into an org unless you choose. Your private work and a team library can live side by side in one account.
Everyone has an invite code on their account. The organization owner enters that code and picks owner or member for the seat. Invitees confirm before access is turned on.
Create bubbles owned by the organization so members who have accepted can upload, ask questions, and trace every answer back to the source files — the same citation flow as personal bubbles.
Creating an organization is part of Pay-as-you-go. Org usage rolls up on the owner's bill (see FAQ). Personal bubbles stay on the free tier until you upgrade — with the usual daily caps.
No credit card required. Add usage billing when you outgrow the free tier.
For trying things out
When you need more room
PDFs, Excel spreadsheets (.xlsx), PowerPoint presentations (.pptx), Word documents (.docx), CSV files, HTML, plain text, images (PNG, JPG, HEIC, WebP), videos (MP4, MOV, WebM), and audio files (MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, FLAC, and more). If it contains information, BubbleRag can index it.
When you ask a question, BubbleRag searches through the documents in your bubble and returns a structured answer with references. Each citation includes the document name and page number (for PDFs), sheet name (for spreadsheets), or slide number (for presentations). Click any citation to download and verify the original file. Pay-as-you-go users can export cited answers as polished findings reports.
Yes. Your documents are stored in encrypted cloud storage and are only accessible to you and people you explicitly share with. Your data is never used to train AI models. Each bubble is isolated—nothing leaks between bubbles. Delete a file and it's gone permanently.
A Bubble is its own little library: documents, optional custom AI instructions, and (if you use orgs) who can see it. You might keep one bubble for class readings, another for a renovation binder, and another for a contract you're reviewing—each with different tone settings. Data never crosses between bubbles. New accounts get a default bubble to start with.
Organizations are optional shared spaces. Create an org, invite people with an invite code, and pick owner or member roles. Bubbles owned by the org are visible to members you add. Usage rolls up to the org owner for billing. Your personal bubbles stay separate unless you move or share them on purpose.
Yes. The free plan gives you 3 file uploads and 25 chat messages per day with up to 3 bubbles. No credit card required. Use it for as long as you want. When you're ready for unlimited usage and optional shared orgs, add a payment method and only pay for what you use.
Add a payment method and only pay for what you use. Costs are based on the AI model you choose and how many tokens each query uses. You can see exact costs per query in real time from the billing dashboard. Usage is invoiced monthly, and you're only charged if your total exceeds $0.50. No monthly minimums, no surprise charges.
BubbleRag offers three AI models: Fast for quick lookups (available on all plans), Standard for everyday questions, and Pro for deep analysis of complex documents. Each model also supports different reasoning effort levels (low, medium, high) so you can balance speed and cost per query. Standard and Pro models are available on the Pay-as-you-go plan.
Every answer comes with citations. Click a citation to open the source document and check for yourself. BubbleRag only answers from your uploaded files — it won't hallucinate from outside knowledge. If the documents don't contain the answer, it tells you.
