About this tool

Khoj upload failures have two common causes: the 10MB per-file limit for document conversion, or the free tier's 50MB total indexed content cap being reached. A 422 error with 'size larger than 10MB limit' confirms the per-file issue. Compressing the PDF resolves both by reducing file size and indexed storage usage.

Adjust the settings or target size as needed for your specific requirement.
