Everything you need to know about Jocasta AI
Jocasta is an intelligent knowledge assistant that helps you interact with your documents and information through natural conversation. It combines advanced AI models with powerful document processing to create a seamless way to query, analyze, and extract insights from your content.
Unlike general-purpose AI chatbots, Jocasta specializes in understanding your documents and knowledge base. Key differences include:
Jocasta is designed for knowledge workers, researchers, students, and professionals who need to efficiently work with large amounts of information. It's particularly valuable for:
With Jocasta, you can:
Yes, privacy is a core principle at Jocasta. Your documents and conversations remain private and are not shared with third parties. We use secure processing methods to ensure your information stays confidential.
Your data is stored in secure cloud infrastructure with encryption at rest and in transit. Depending on your subscription plan, you may have options for regional data storage to comply with specific regulatory requirements.
Absolutely. You have complete control over your data and can delete documents, conversations, or your entire account at any time. When you delete data, it's permanently removed from our systems after a brief retention period for backup purposes.
No, Jocasta does not share your documents or conversation data with third parties. The only exception is when we need to process your documents through our AI model providers, but this is done securely and according to strict privacy standards.
Document uploads are secured through encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS). Once uploaded, documents are stored with encryption at rest and processed in secure environments. We implement industry best practices for security at every stage of the document lifecycle.
Yes, Jocasta supports bring-your-own-model options, including Ollama for self-hosted deployments. This gives you flexibility to use models that match your specific requirements for performance, cost, or privacy.
Jocasta supports a variety of models, including:
The availability of specific models depends on your subscription plan.
Jocasta primarily functions as a cloud service, but we offer self-hosted options for enterprise customers that can work in air-gapped environments with the appropriate setup. This requires deploying Jocasta on your own infrastructure with compatible AI models.
A Mindspace is Jocasta's way of organizing related documents, conversations, and knowledge into a cohesive workspace. Think of it as a project space or knowledge hub where you can group relevant information and have contextual conversations about interconnected topics.
Yes, Jocasta is designed to work with multiple documents simultaneously. You can upload several related documents to a Mindspace, and Jocasta will analyze connections between them, allowing you to ask questions that span across all documents.
Uploads are linked to your current Mindspace. When you upload documents, they become part of the active Mindspace's knowledge context, allowing Jocasta to reference and analyze those documents during your conversations within that space.
When you delete a document, it's removed from the Mindspace and Jocasta will no longer reference it in future conversations. The document data and any extracted information are permanently deleted from our systems after a brief retention period for backup purposes.
Yes, Mindspaces are designed specifically for this purpose. You can create multiple Mindspaces organized around different topics, projects, or areas of research, each with its own set of documents and conversation history.
Casual mode is a conversation setting in Jocasta that allows for more general discussions without strict adherence to document content. It's useful for brainstorming, exploring ideas, or having general conversations while still maintaining awareness of your knowledge context.
Jocasta has both short-term and long-term memory capabilities:
This allows Jocasta to maintain context and refer back to previous discussions when relevant.
A Snapshot is a saved moment in a conversation that captures important insights, conclusions, or information for future reference. It's like bookmarking a valuable part of your conversation so you can easily return to it later or share it with others.
Yes, Jocasta allows you to export conversations and snapshots in multiple formats including PDF, Markdown, and plain text. This makes it easy to save important findings, share insights with colleagues, or integrate information into other workflows.
Yes, we offer self-hosting options for enterprise customers who have specific security requirements or need to operate in air-gapped environments. Contact our sales team for more information about enterprise self-hosting solutions.
Yes, enterprise plans support integration with existing vector stores and databases. This allows organizations to leverage their existing data infrastructure while benefiting from Jocasta's intelligent interface and processing capabilities.
Memory settings can be adjusted in your Mindspace configuration. You can enable or disable both short-term (conversation) and long-term (persistent) memory features based on your needs. This gives you control over how much context Jocasta maintains between sessions.
Advanced and enterprise plans include access to our API and integration framework, allowing you to create custom tools and integrate Jocasta with your existing workflows and systems. Our developer documentation provides detailed guidance for building on the Jocasta platform.
Yes, Jocasta is currently in beta as we continue to refine the platform based on user feedback. Beta users receive early access to new features and play an important role in shaping the future of the product.
