Break down large documents that exceed AI context windows, process each section separately, then combine insights into a comprehensive analysis report.

Workflow Steps

1

Zapier

Split document into chunks

Use Zapier's PDF parser to break large documents into smaller sections of 2000-3000 tokens each, ensuring no section exceeds the AI model's context window while maintaining logical breaks.

2

OpenAI API

Analyze each chunk separately

Send each document chunk to GPT-4 with a consistent analysis prompt asking for key insights, summaries, and specific findings. Maintain the same analysis framework across all chunks.

3

Airtable

Collect and organize results

Store each chunk's analysis in an Airtable base with fields for chunk number, key findings, sentiment, and action items. This creates a structured dataset of insights.

4

Google Docs

Generate final report

Use Zapier to compile all chunk analyses into a comprehensive Google Doc report with sections for executive summary, detailed findings, and recommendations based on the complete document.
