Foxit, a provider of PDF and e-signature products and services, helping knowledge workers to increase their productivity and do more with documents, has launched its AI-Powered Research Agent.
The company describes it as “an intelligent tool designed to help users quickly understand and extract insights from complex research documents like academic papers, clinical trial reports, or usability studies”.
Foxit’s new AI-Powered Research Agent helps channel partners and end customers do what previously took hours, if not days, in just minutes: extract meaningful, structured insights from dense, complex research documents.
Whether it’s academic papers, clinical trial reports, white papers, or usability studies, these types of documents are typically filled with technical language, inconsistent formatting, and lengthy sections that require time, expertise, and focus to fully understand.
Foxit says its Research Agent solves this pain point by using AI to automatically break down each document into five clearly defined sections:
- Overview – A summary of the document’s purpose and scope
- Research Methods – How the study was conducted
- Research Results – The key findings
- Conclusions – What the results mean
- Glossary – Definitions of technical terms
Lara Temel, product manager, Foxit, says: “Foxit’s AI-Powered Research Agent is a game-changer for both channel partners and end customers.
“For channel partners, this is a golden opportunity to deliver high-value, high-impact innovation to clients who are buried trying to make heads or tails out of complex documents.
“It’s not just another feature, it’s a differentiator that positions them as a forward-thinking solution provider who helps clients move faster, think smarter, and work more efficiently.”
Temel adds: “For end customers, this tool feels like a miracle. Instead of spending hours trying to decode research-heavy PDFs, teams get a clean, structured summary in seconds.
“It doesn’t just save time; it eliminates the mental drag of manual analysis, reduces misinterpretation, and lets users act with confidence.”
The Research Agent is part of a growing suite of AI features available at ai.foxit.com, which now also includes:
- Document Translation – Instantly translate full documents into multiple languages
- Read Aloud – Hear your documents read aloud for easier accessibility and review
- Web Search – Enrich responses with real-time data from the web
- Chat History – Organize and access past conversations in a refreshed left-side panel
- Temporary Chat – Ask questions without saving the conversation history
- Document View – View the uploaded document(s) side-by-side while chatting
Foxit says its AI-Powered Research Agent and expanding toolset are the latest example of the company’s “commitment to creating intelligent, user-centric tools that enhance productivity and eliminate friction in everyday workflows”.
