It seems to be a paid version of https://github.com/mayooear/gpt4-pdf-chatbot-langchain

It uses langchain and pinecone to create a semantic index over the PDF content and search it based on question asked to sends the relevant information to openAI GPT api using embeddings.

You absolutely don’t need Langchain for any of this.
No, it doesn't use langchain and yes it uses OpenAI.
Care to elaborate? I mean, looking at the source code it clearly does use LangChain for PDF ingestion https://github.com/mayooear/gpt4-pdf-chatbot-langchain/blob/...
He might mean the site chatpdf.com does not use langchain but uses the OpenAI API.
Yes, that's what I meant.
