Socrates Reviews

I have purchased lots of ai products, from multimodel platform to afforai, many of them explain things in detail but lack of evidence support, which is no good if you are evidence-based.
Afforai do a good job in integrating citation into answer but sometimes details are missing and a part of answers seem to be generated from AI instead of the input document itself. However, this product socrates amazes me in a second when I ask context-related questions, from a 500 pages pdf, it gives me a satisfactory and clean answers. It is so amazing, though minor error occurred in the citation location (it gives correct answer from page somewhere else, leaving a wrong citation location for reference)
All in all, i think it is a game changer for people who want to absorb knowledge from textbooks, hardcore materials with hundred pages.
Some suggestions:
-To add “content page” function for navigation in pdf reader (as I need to rmb the page no. of chapter somewhere and type/scroll to there manually)
-improve citation location accuracy
-more appealing and intuitive UI
-it would be nice if there is apps for ios/ipad os (as web version by ios is difficult to use:
UI font not for mobile, too small,
inconvenient to switch between document view and chat view, and very unstable when loading pdf, reloading is very common, iphone 15 pro FYI)

Socrates is a must if you really want a large document deep diver and tier 4 is suggested as large document consumes your quota of page with ease.

As someone who frequently uses advanced AI tools for research, I’ve come to appreciate the importance of having the right tool for the right task. While other tools like Afforai excel at broad workflows, Socrates has proven to be the missing piece I needed for deep, precise analysis of large documents.

What makes Socrates truly exceptional is its ability to extract granular insights with remarkable accuracy. For instance, I can ask how many times a specific word appears in a document, and it provides the exact count instantly—no guesswork. This precision allows me to uncover every nuance and detail I need for thorough research.

Socrates also stands out for its flexibility. With the capacity to manage up to 100 tables simultaneously, I can analyze themes, track mentions, and cross-reference ideas across multiple books in one seamless workflow. It’s like having a highly specialized research assistant focused entirely on document analysis.

In my testing, I’ve put Socrates head-to-head with other tools, including Google’s NotebookLM (even the latest version). While NotebookLM is innovative, it doesn’t come close to matching Socrates’ ability to dig deep into documents and deliver precise, actionable results. Socrates doesn’t just work—it excels where others falter.

While I use other tools for broader and more general research, writing, and content management, particularly Afforai, Socrates is unmatched in its ability to dive deep and provide exhaustive insights. For anyone dealing with dense texts or seeking to unlock the full potential of large documents, Socrates is an absolute game-changer. It’s not just good—it’s amazingly, astoundingly good.

I had several specialized books analyzed by Socrates. After that, I asked many questions and what should I say:

I am impressed.

It saves me an enormous amount of time in research and learning. This tool is worth more than gold. Get it before it's gone.

I got Socrates more or less as a back up to Afforai. I was pleasantly surprised to find out Socrates is actually a fantastic product and the Deep Dive and Prompt Loop features are truly unique! I'm loving Socrates and plan to use it much more in the future as I'm a heavy researcher. What I would like to see in the future is BYOK support, and more of a variety of LLM's to choose from.

Keep up the great work, I hope this tool is here for the long haul!

At first, I asked for help because I set up my account incorrectly, and it was resolved right away, so I'm using it well now.
I'm Korean. Socrates understands and summarizes PDFs in languages ​​other than English, so it's a great help for my work.
Originally, I had to read everything and understand it myself, but it took a lot of time and it was too difficult for me to understand many pages.
I look forward to the continued development of features in the future.
