I have a pickaxe studio with paid subscribers who upload their websites and docs to get the best information from the tool. Do they need to do this each time they log in - or is it something they do once and their tool “remembers” the stuff they’ve uploaded.
If stuff is remembered, will there ever be a way for users to see what files they’ve already uploaded?
If you have not disabled the feature the tools will remember (unless chat and/or memory generated is removed) what users have talked to them and the files they upload can be found from their own profile page.
Great question, @aidan. This is actually one of the coolest parts of Pickaxe when it’s set up right.
Make sure Allow users to upload files is enabled and set beyond “this thread only.”
When a user uploads files, they can be linked to the user’s profile, so the AI can read them and remember them for future conversations. They don’t need to re-upload every time they log in.
Those files stay securely attached to that user, and Pickaxe can reference them later across sessions and tools.
A couple important notes:
Only the Studio owner can currently see uploaded files, under Users → Manage users → User profile. End users don’t have a “my files” view yet.
File quality matters a lot. Clean, text-based docs and webpages work best. Image-heavy PDFs or photos of handwritten notes will upload and be stored, but the AI will struggle to read them, and remembering that content later becomes unreliable.
I hope this helps
