How Doc Fetch works

From raw documents to grounded, cited answers in four simple steps. Here's what happens under the hood.

1

Upload & Organize

Create folders to organize your documents by project, topic, or course. Upload PDFs, text files, and CSVs. Each folder becomes its own isolated knowledge base.

Process & Index

Documents are split into smart chunks, embedded into vectors, and indexed with both semantic (FAISS) and keyword (BM25) search for maximum recall. This hybrid approach ensures no relevant passage is missed.

Ask & Get Cited Answers

Your query is expanded into multiple phrasings for better recall. Results from FAISS and BM25 are fused using Reciprocal Rank Fusion. The LLM generates answers citing specific sources, then a grounding check verifies every claim.

What makes it different

H

Hybrid Search

Combines semantic understanding (FAISS) with keyword matching (BM25) using Reciprocal Rank Fusion. Catches both meaning and exact terms.

E

Query Expansion

Your question is automatically rephrased into multiple variants so retrieval covers different angles and phrasings of the same concept.

G

Grounding Verification

Every claim in the answer is checked against source documents. You see exactly which claims are supported and which aren't.
