Haruno Knowledge base

Files and media

Haruno reads Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF and text files, makes PDFs, looks at pictures and turns recordings into text. It is always on.

  • Mac appAvailableAlways on. It has no row in Connectors.
  • Windows appAvailableAlways on. It has no card in Settings.

What it connects

This is how Haruno reads the files you give it. It is part of the app, so it has no card in Settings and no switch. It is always on.

What Haruno can do

  • Read a document and give back its text. Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files work. So do plain text and table files such as CSV, JSON and Markdown.
  • Take a first look at a file before reading it, so a very large spreadsheet is read in pieces.
  • Search inside an Excel or text file for a word or a value.
  • Make a PDF from text.
  • Look at a picture and answer a question about it. JPG, PNG, GIF and WEBP work, up to 5 MB.
  • Turn a recording into text. M4A, MP3, WAV, OGG, OPUS, FLAC and WEBM work.

To look at a picture or listen to a recording, Haruno sends that one file to Haruno's own service.

How to connect

There is nothing to connect. Attach a file or folder to a chat, or work in a project folder, and ask Haruno about it.

What needs your approval

Nothing asks. Haruno reads the files you gave it, in your working folder or attached to the chat. A PDF it makes is saved in your working folder.
