What it does
- Chat with AI. Interact with an AI model based on Azure OpenAI’s GPT and Thinking models.
- RAG with Hybrid Search. Upload documents and perform hybrid searches (vector + keyword), retrieving relevant information from your files to augment AI responses.
- Document Management. Upload, store, and manage multiple versions of documents—personal ("Your Workspace") or group-level ("Group Workspaces").
- Group Management. Create and join groups to share access to group-specific documents, enabling collaboration with Role-Based Access Control (RBAC).
- Ephemeral (Single-Convo) Documents. Upload temporary documents available only during the current chat session, without persistent storage in Azure AI Search.
