When you connect your cloud storage to RecordsKeeper.AI, your original files remain in their existing location (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) and aren't moved or duplicated.

However, to deliver our core AI-powered search and chat functionality, we must process and index your documents within our infrastructure. This creates searchable, AI-enhanced data objects that enable instant natural language queries like "find my Q3 contracts" or "show me invoices from last month."

What you're paying for:

  • AI processing and indexing of your documents

  • Searchable data objects stored in our system

  • Infrastructure to maintain instant retrieval capabilities

  • Conversational AI access to your entire document library

Why this is necessary: Without this processing, we couldn't offer the intelligent search, chat-based retrieval, and instant document discovery that makes RecordsKeeper.AI powerful. Your storage investment transforms static files into an instantly accessible, conversational knowledge base.

The value: Instead of manually searching through folders and files, you get immediate access to any document through simple conversations with our AI.

This processing cost is fundamental to delivering the intelligent document management experience that sets RecordsKeeper.AI apart from basic cloud storage.
