FAQs

What is UIUC.chat?

UIUC.chat is your friendly course assistant tool! Professors (and anyone else, really) can upload documents like syllabuses, PDFs, videos, and more. Students can then ask questions about the coursework and get answers, fast! It’s open-source, easy to use, and backed by the Center for Artificial Intelligence at NCSA, UIUC. Perfect for class-related Q&A with your own knowledge base!

How do I get started?

Simple as pie! Upload your docs—whether it’s PDFs, PowerPoints, Word files, or even videos. Connect it to your database or Canvas, and boom! You’re ready to roll. Need help? Check out our YouTube channel for video walkthroughs to get you up and running!

Is there a community or support available?

Absolutely! We’ve got a Discord community where you can hang out, ask questions, and get tips. Plus, our team is super responsive—email Rohan Marwaha at rohan13@illinois.edu or Akylai Kasymkulova at akylaik2@illinois.edu, and we’ll get back to you in just 2-3 minutes. Yes, you read that right!

Are there any costs associated with using the chat?

UIUC.chat is free to use! You only need to purchase OpenAI API endpoints and keys. After that, it’s smooth sailing.
