Your agent’s knowledge base is the content it uses to answer questions. You can add three types of sources: documents, web sources, and text snippets.Documentation Index

Documents
Upload files that your agent should learn from. When you upload a document, Mind-e converts it to text, splits it into chunks, and stores embeddings for retrieval.Supported file types
| Format | Extension | Max file size | Max content |
|---|---|---|---|
.pdf | 50 MB | 500 pages | |
| Word | .docx | 50 MB | 300 pages |
| Text | .txt | 10 MB | 5,000,000 characters |
| Markdown | .md | 10 MB | 5,000,000 characters |
Each agent has a 50 MB total storage limit across all sources (documents, web sources, and snippets combined). Your overall storage limit also depends on your plan.
Upload a document
Upload
Click Upload Document and select a file. The file goes through validation (size, type, content) before uploading.
Wait for processing
The document progresses through these stages:
- Uploading — file is being transferred
- Converting — content is extracted and converted to markdown
- Chunking — text is split into searchable chunks
- Embedded — chunks are converted to embeddings and stored
Delete a document
Click the delete icon next to a document in the Sources tab. This removes the document, its chunks, and its embeddings from the knowledge base.Web sources
Add content from websites by providing a URL. Mind-e crawls the page and indexes the content.Add a web source
Discover pages (optional)
Click Discover to find related pages on the same domain. This helps you index an entire website or section.
Text snippets
Write custom text content directly — useful for FAQs, product details, or information that isn’t in a document or on a website.Create a text snippet
How retrieval works
When a user asks a question, your agent:- Converts the question into an embedding
- Searches all sources (documents, web sources, snippets) for the most relevant chunks
- Reranks the results to find the best matches
- Uses the top results as context to generate an answer
Tips
- Quality over quantity — upload relevant, well-structured content. A few good documents perform better than many irrelevant ones.
- Keep content up to date — delete outdated documents and re-upload updated versions.
- Use text snippets for FAQs — if you find your agent struggles with specific questions, add a text snippet with the answer.
- Check document status — if a document shows an error, the agent cannot use it. Re-upload or check the file format.
