SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Distill content from PDFs, URLs, or plain text into concise, memory-friendly Q&A pairs that can be stored and recalled on demand.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Content distillation: Extracts text from PDFs, web pages, or documents and converts it into structured Q&A pairs suitable for memory.
  • Memory storage: Persists the generated Q&A in a memory system via the memory-agent learn workflow for quick retrieval.
  • Context-aware extraction: Accepts domain context (e.g., "ML researcher") to tailor the distillation for relevance.

Quick Start

Distill a PDF, URL, or text into memory with domain context to generate Q&A pairs.

FAQPage Schema
How do I distill text from a PDF into Q&A pairs for memory storage?

You can distill web page content into memory-ready Q&A pairs by providing the URL and an optional domain context. The system extracts the text, grounds the answers in the source material, and stores the Q&A pairs in memory.

Can I tailor extracted Q&A pairs to a specific research domain?

Yes, you can tailor extracted Q&A pairs by providing a domain context parameter such as "ML researcher." This context shapes the distillation process to generate memory-ready Q&A pairs relevant to your specific field.

Does the distillation process ground answers in the original source text?

The distillation process enforces grounding by deriving answers directly from the provided source content. It uses an LLM as needed to ensure the generated Q&A pairs accurately reflect the original PDF, web page, or text.

What is the best way to convert plain text into memory-ready Q&A pairs?

The best way to convert plain text into memory-ready Q&A pairs is using a distillation workflow that accepts raw text and domain context. It generates grounded Q&A pairs and persists them via a memory-agent learn workflow for quick recall.

How are distilled Q&A pairs stored for later retrieval?

Distilled Q&A pairs are stored in a memory system using the memory-agent learn workflow. This persistence allows the generated Q&A pairs to be quickly recalled on demand for future reference.
