The Brevton Product Guide

How Brevton works, step by step: create a project, upload your documents, ask questions, check the cited sources, and turn findings into summaries and reports your team can share.

Written for early-access users and updated as the product grows.

Chapter 00

What Is Brevton?

Brevton is an AI research assistant. You upload your own papers, patents, reports and technical documents into a project; Brevton reads them, answers your questions in plain English and links every answer back to its sources. It also writes summaries, pulls out key findings, groups documents by topic and drafts reports, in a workspace you can share with your team.

The Core Workflow

Everything in Brevton comes back to four things you do with your documents.

  • Upload documents
  • Ask questions
  • Check the sources
  • Summarize & report

Early Access

Brevton was founded in 2026 and is in early access. Public sign-up isn't open yet: you request access and we email you when your account is ready. We're shaping the product with early users, so some details in this guide will change as features ship.

How This Guide Works

Each chapter stands on its own. Use the chapter list to jump to any section.

Chapter 01

From First Project to First Answer

Six steps from requesting access to your first cited answer and your first report.

Before You Begin

You need an early-access account and a few documents you already work with. A small set of papers or reports on one topic makes a good first project, because you can check Brevton's answers against what you already know.

The Six Steps

Follow them in order the first time.

  1. Step 1

    Request Early Access

    Fill in the short request form and tell us what you research. We'll email you when your account is ready.

  2. Step 2

    Sign In

    Accounts are invite-only during early access. Sign in with the email address you requested access with.

  3. Step 3

    Create a Project

    A project holds the documents, questions and reports for one research question or initiative. Name it after the question.

  4. Step 4

    Upload Documents

    Add papers, patents, reports and technical documents in common formats, for example PDF, DOCX or TXT. Brevton reads and indexes them.

  5. Step 5

    Ask Questions

    Ask in plain English. Each answer links to the documents and passages it draws on, so you can check it.

  6. Step 6

    Summarize, Report & Share

    Generate summaries, key findings and reports, and invite teammates to your workspace to work on the same project.

Chapter 02

Six Features, One Library

Brevton is organized around six features that all work on the same project library. Chapter 04 covers each one in more detail.

Feature Index

How Features Connect

Upload a document once and every feature in that project can use it: search, questions, summaries and reports all read from the same library.

  1. Upload
  2. Search
  3. Ask
  4. Check sources
  5. Summarize & report
Chapter 03

Projects, Documents and Teams

Every workspace is built around projects and documents, and the teammates you invite to work on them.

Research Projects

A project keeps the documents, questions and reports for one research question or initiative together. Smaller, focused projects make answers easier to check than one large mixed library. A few habits that help:

  • One project per research question
  • Start with documents you know well
  • Add new documents as you find them
  • Ask specific, scoped questions
  • Open the cited passage before reusing an answer
  • Invite only the people who need access

Uploading Documents

Open a project and drag files in, or choose them from your computer, one at a time or several at once. Brevton extracts the text of each document and indexes it so search, questions, summaries and reports can all use it.

Supported Content

Brevton works with text-based research and technical documents in common formats, for example PDF, DOCX and TXT. Good fits include:

  • Research papers
  • Technical reports
  • Scientific publications
  • Patents
  • Whitepapers
  • Policy documents

Team Workspaces

Invite teammates to your workspace so you can work on the same projects and documents. Access is limited to the members you invite; documents in your workspace aren't visible to anyone else.

Chapter 04

Feature Reference

What each of the six features does, and how to get good results from it.

AI Research Assistant

Ask a question in plain English about the documents in a project. Brevton finds the most relevant passages and writes an answer from them, with links back to each source so you can check every claim.

What it does

  • Plain-English questions
  • Answers drawn from your documents
  • Links to the source passages
  • Scoped to one project

Summaries & Key Findings

Summarize a single paper or a set of documents. Brevton pulls out key findings, methods and conclusions so you can review a body of work faster, and compare papers by asking how they differ.

What it does

  • Single-document summaries
  • Summaries across several documents
  • Key findings, methods and conclusions
  • Comparisons by question

Citations & Sources

Answers, summaries and reports in Brevton point back to the documents and passages they came from. Open a source to read it in context before you rely on it.

What it does

  • Source links on answers
  • Passage-level references
  • Open the source in context
  • Sources carried into reports

Topic Clusters

Brevton groups documents with related content by topic, so you can see which themes a library covers, where work overlaps and where sources are thin.

What it does

  • Documents grouped by topic
  • Related documents side by side
  • An overview of what a library covers
  • Topics with few sources stand out

Reports

Turn a project's findings into a structured draft, such as an executive summary or a research brief, with its sources attached. Treat reports as drafts: review them and check the sources before you share them.

What it does

  • Executive summaries
  • Structured research briefs
  • Sources included
  • Built from one project
Chapter 05

Privacy, Access and Billing

Who can see your documents, how they're protected, and how plans and billing work during early access.

Security & Privacy

Your documents stay private to your workspace. Here is what that means in practice.

  • Private to your workspace

    Only the members you invite can see a workspace's projects and documents. They aren't shared with other customers or published anywhere.

  • You own your content

    You keep ownership of everything you upload, as our Terms state.

  • Encrypted in transit

    Traffic between your browser and Brevton uses HTTPS (TLS).

  • Built on AWS

    Brevton runs on Amazon Web Services infrastructure.

Plans & Billing

Prices are in Indian rupees. While Brevton is in early access, billing is handled by our team rather than through self-serve checkout. See Pricing for what each plan includes.

  • Four plans

    Starter ₹4,999, Professional ₹14,999 and Business ₹49,999 per month, plus custom Enterprise pricing.

  • No online checkout yet

    Public sign-up isn't open, so we confirm your plan and billing details with you directly.

  • Changing plans

    Email contact@brevton.com and we'll move you to the plan that fits.

  • Invoices & payments

    Send invoice and payment questions to contact@brevton.com.

During early access, support is by email and goes straight to the small team building Brevton.

Where to Get Help

What to Include

A few details help us answer on the first reply:

  • Your workspace and project name
  • What you did, and what you expected to happen
  • For upload problems: the file name and format
  • Screenshots, if you have them

Attach a file only if it isn't confidential.
