When you'd use it
- You need every page of a 90-page contract that mentions the termination notice period.
- A study guide is long and you want each place a key term appears.
- An auditor asks which pages of the annual report mention a specific supplier.
Just say what you need
There are no menus to learn. Drop your file on pdfagents.ai and type it the way you would say it:
- “find every mention of “deadline””
- “where does it say notice period?”
- “which pages mention VAT?”
How it works
- Drop the PDF.
- Type the word or phrase, or several separated by commas.
- Read the matches with their pages; download the full list as CSV.
Questions
- Is the search case-sensitive, and does it match parts of words?
- It ignores case and matches inside longer words, so “tax” also finds “taxation”. Spaces in a phrase match any spacing or line break.
- Can I search for several terms at once?
- Yes. Separate them with commas or semicolons. After the results you can type another search.
- What is in the CSV download?
- One row per match with the term, the page and about 70 characters of context on each side. The chat shows the first 8 matches per term.
