SmartReportAdapter
Lets users query PDF reports conversationally instead of scrolling through pages.
Attaches to ChatBox + PDF
The report adapter specialises the document pattern for PDF reports. Connect a report and a ChatBox and users can ask for the figure, the trend or the line item they need without hunting through the export.
It turns static, end-of-month PDFs into something a person can interrogate directly.
Under the hood the PDF is vectorized like any other document, so the adapter scales from a two-page summary to a few hundred pages of appendices without changing the experience.
What it gives you
- Conversational queries over PDF reports.
- Answers point back to the relevant part of the report.
- No re-modelling of the report data required.
Use it for
- Interrogating month-end financial PDFs
- Fast answers from audit and inspection reports
- Self-serve analytics over distributed report files
Like every adapter, it runs through a SmartHub and inherits its SmartEndpoint — switching the model or provider never changes this code.
var hub = new SmartHub(this) { Endpoint = endpoint };
var report = new SmartReportAdapter {
ChatBox = chatBox1,
ReportPath = @"C:\reports\Q2-sales.pdf"
};
// Ask: "Which region grew fastest quarter over quarter?"
