Native PDF Support

Lots of our customer's workflows are oriented around PDFs and other documents: internal files that data is locked inside, academic articles containing nuggets to be mined, reports from regulators published on their portals, and other information sourced from the world wide web.

Until now, while HASH's AI workers could extract information from these files, store them for future reference, and make these mirrored copies available for download... it wasn't possible to view these files directly inside of HASH, which frequently meant interrupting human users' workflows to preview PDFs and other documents in external viewers and applications.

With today's update, it's now possible to view PDFs inline within HASH. Page thumbnails appear to the left of the currently selected page, zoom controls are provided, and a "full screen" button enables launching into a windowless focus mode that assists in reading longer documents.

As always, files themselves continue to be parsed upon ingest or upload into HASH, with metadata and other key information extracted automatically. Today's changes simply make it easier to do more of your work in HASH, without switching to other applications.
