This workflow allows users to upload documents such as PDFs, DOCXs, and CSVs, which are then processed by OpenAI's Assistant API to produce summaries. The summaries include a title, a brief overview, key bullet points, and relevant tags. The workflow handles file uploads, runs the AI assistant, and retrieves the summary once processing is complete.
