Knowstory: AI Data Extraction API & AMA Search Tool
Knowstory converts your website search bar into an AI-powered AMA and extracts structured JSON data from any unstructured document via a simple API call.
Overview
Knowstory is a dual-purpose AI tool designed to eliminate manual data wrangling. On one hand, it transforms a simple website search bar into an interactive AMA (Ask Me Anything) section, letting users get instant answers instead of sifting through static pages. On the other, it functions as a powerful document-to-data engine, converting unstructured text, PDFs, and datasets into clean, structured JSON.
What sets Knowstory apart is its template-free approach to extraction. Rather than forcing you to map data to rigid pre-built schemas, you simply describe the fields you need—like 'invoice total' or 'borrower name'—and the API returns a structured JSON object matching your request. It handles any file type, format, or length, making it a flexible backend for teams drowning in contracts, forms, and receipts.
By connecting to over 5,000 apps, Knowstory doesn't just extract data; it puts that data to work. Users can build no-code automation workflows that pipe extracted information directly into CRMs, spreadsheets, or accounting software, effectively bridging the gap between messy source documents and actionable business systems.
