Yandex has officially launched its new service, Neuroexpert, designed to streamline the handling of various document types, articles, presentations, and multimedia files. This innovative tool is currently available in beta version for free on the Yandex website, though a mobile application has yet to be released.
Neuroexpert allows users to upload up to 25 files per chat, supporting formats such as DOCX, PDF, audio, video (including YouTube links), and JPEG images. Users can also share folders containing these files via a simple link, enhancing collaboration and accessibility.
The service operates in a dialogue mode, meaning that once users upload their desired files or links, they can issue a text query to initiate the service's capabilities. Neuroexpert is designed to utilize only the uploaded sources, refraining from searching the internet or adding any external information, which ensures that the responses are directly relevant to the documents provided.
However, there are some limitations to the service. Users can create a maximum of 10 projects, each appearing as a separate chat. Additionally, the service allows for 100 queries per month, with the ability to reset project limits by deleting unnecessary chats. The number of queries resets only once a month, which may require users to strategize their usage effectively.
Yandex emphasizes that Neuroexpert is tailored for both work-related tasks and everyday inquiries. For instance, it can assist users in making informed purchasing decisions by allowing them to upload links to products and their reviews. The service can compare different options and answer specific questions, making it a valuable resource for consumers.
Furthermore, Neuroexpert can also aid users in understanding the rules of various board games, showcasing its versatility beyond traditional document handling.
Powered by YandexGPT 5 Pro, the latest and most advanced language model from Yandex, Neuroexpert is capable of generating coherent and contextually relevant responses. The service also incorporates a visual-language model for searching data within graphs and diagrams, while integrating speech recognition technology for audio and video interactions.
In addition to its current capabilities, Yandex has plans to release an expanded version of Neuroexpert aimed at large business owners. This future iteration will enable users to search for information within internal databases and company documents, facilitating automation of workflows, streamlining adaptation processes, and ultimately increasing employee efficiency.
Subscription for early access to the expanded version is available on the Yandex website, although the pricing for business users has not been disclosed yet.
As of April 3, 2025, the beta version of Neuroexpert is already making waves in the tech community, with many users eager to explore its potential. Yandex is optimistic about the service's future, anticipating that it will significantly enhance productivity for both individual users and businesses alike.
In another significant update, the 'Contractor Verification' service from Klerk has started to pull fresh data, making accounting reports for 2024 available for several companies. This information is sourced from the Federal Tax Service and is currently up-to-date for many contractors.
The author expresses satisfaction that their company, Affiniti Index, has successfully maintained its 'key' in reporting, indicating steady growth since 2019. The term 'key' refers to a financial trend where a company experiences stable or declining numbers over several years, followed by a sharp increase, resembling the shape of a hockey stick. This is seen as a positive signal indicating that the company is not only surviving but thriving.
In addition to the reporting updates, Klerk has improved the EGRL record page, making it clearer and more user-friendly. The search functionality and the 'Debtor Register' block have also been updated to enhance user experience.
The 'Contractor Verification' service is designed to simplify the lives of users by providing quick and comprehensive information about companies or individual entrepreneurs. The service is continuously evolving and currently contains data on over 31 million organizations and individual entrepreneurs.
As of now, the service offers two modes of operation: a simplified format accessible to everyone without registration and an expanded functionality available to authorized users. Starting May 1, 2025, the expanded features will only be available to Klerk.Premium subscribers, with an annual subscription cost set at 6000 rubles.
The expanded search capabilities allow users to find contractors based on various criteria, including OKVED codes, region, authorized capital size, and registration date. A new release is scheduled for April 17, 2025, which will include a comprehensive page with data on INN, OGRN, addresses, managers, founders, requisites, and legal predecessors.
A dedicated page for individuals will show where an individual is a founder or manager, their self-employed status, and the presence of an IP, with a planned release by the end of April 2025. The service will also provide access to all contractor licenses based on EGRL and EGRIP data, types of activity, and company history.
For authorized users, expanded functionality will include financial statements, a complete history of changes, information about changes in managers, founders, addresses, taxes, court cases, government contracts, and contractor monitoring. Additional data on the 'Svodka' page will allow users to download an extract with the FNS signature, average headcount, tax regime, and more.
Readers are encouraged to follow updates from Klerk, as the service is continuously being improved and developed, promising even more useful features in the near future.
