[Danswer](https://www.danswer.ai/) is the AI Assistant connected to your company's docs, apps, and people. 

Danswer provides a Chat interface and plugs into any LLM of your choice. Danswer can be deployed anywhere and for any 

scale - on a laptop, on-premise, or to cloud. Since you own the deployment, your user data and chats are fully in your 

own control. Danswer is MIT licensed and designed to be modular and easily extensible. The system also comes fully ready 

for production usage with user authentication, role management (admin/basic users), chat persistence, and a UI for 

configuring Personas (AI Assistants) and their Prompts.



Danswer also serves as a Unified Search across all common workplace tools such as Slack, Google Drive, Confluence, etc.

By combining LLMs and team specific knowledge, Danswer becomes a subject matter expert for the team. Imagine ChatGPT if

it had access to your team's unique knowledge! It enables questions such as "A customer wants feature X, is this already

supported?" or "Where's the pull request for feature Y?"
