Upload and annotate PDFs and PPTs

Add secondary research to your repository and include it in analysis

Updated over a week ago

Marvin supports various file formats, including PDFs and PPTs (which are converted to PDFs). It's a great way to add secondary research to your project and repository. Similar to other files, you can add notes, file tags, labels, etc., and run AI analysis.

How do I upload PDFs and PPTs?

Navigate to the project to which you want to add these files. Click "Add new files" and then select "Upload files".

Annotate the PDF

You can add notes to text in the PDF. Just highlight any portion, and you’ll see the note box open.

AI Analysis

You have access to the same AI analysis features on PDFs as on other files. Marvin will create a summary, key takeaways, pain points, etc. You can also use Ask AI on the PDF.

Marvin will include information from charts, graphs, and images in the analysis. This is a great way to include quantitative data in your research.

Add PDFs to Insights

You can also add PDFs to Insight reports.

Navigate to "Insights and Playlists" in your project and open a new or existing Insight.

You can also add comments to the PDF in the Insight by highlighting blocks of text.
