Imagine having a personal chat that can answer any question based on your Google Docs.

Or maybe you want to give your team a way to find answers tucked away in your company’s Google Docs.

By training a ChatGPT on your Google Docs, you can give them ability to do just that.

What does ChatGPT and Google Docs look like?

Imagine a super-fast AI  that can answer any question based on your company’s documentation. That’s the power of adding ChatGPT to Google Docs.

This is how it works: The ChatGPT lives inside a chat window in an app or on your website. You simply type a question in, ChatGPT interprets it, finds an answer based on your Docs, then answers your question.

Why Integrate ChatGPT with Google Docs?

  1. New drafts in seconds: You can train ChatGPT on your old docs, then ask it to quickly write something new based on your style.
  2. One place for all your information: No more digging for the right file. If you’ve got some important information buried away in a Google Doc, you can ask ChatGPT what it is, and get an instant answer.
  3. Helps your customers: No helpdesk, no problem. You can write help documentation with Google Docs, then create a widget on your website that will scan those files and give your customers answers based on them.
  4. Helps new people: Someone new joining the team? ChatGPT with Google Docs helps them find answers, so they don’t have to distract their teammates.
  5. Privacy and compliance: With a focus on privacy, EU data residency support, and a commitment to not using data to train models, your information remains secure.
