Partner Spotlight: V7 Go Summer Update
V7 Go is a tool to automate text and visual tasks using GenAI, reliably and at scale. V7 Go connects your work to a powerful reasoning engine, but at its core is simple to use like a spreadsheet or database, with each cell being powered by an LLM. V7 Go was featured when we launched alongside Mark Zuckerberg on Dwarkesh's podcast. Now we bring you our Summer Update.
With Ask Go, you can set up complex document automation workflows in seconds with an AI copilot. The spreadsheet-like UI is built for scale and allows uploading any volume of PDFs, audio calls, or photos. AI Citations highlight relevant text directly in the source documents for you to verify every AI conclusion at a glance. If AI makes a mistake, each correction improves its performance thanks to new RLFH & Supervised Fine-Tuning features.
Learn more about the new features or try V7 Go for free now.
