Manage your Knowledge Base

The main BaseForge page is where you load your company's source-of-truth content into GEOforge. Anything you upload here becomes available to the rest of the platform — ContentForge uses it to ground generated content, and the Entity Map and SignalForge draw on it for context. Each ready file gets an IG (information gain) score so you can see at a glance how much new value it adds to your Knowledge Base.

The page has three areas: Documents (left), Upload (right), and — if you've connected Fireflies — a Fireflies panel below Upload. You can also capture knowledge through AI-led interviews, whose transcripts are ingested here automatically.

Uploading documents

Use the Upload card on the right to add files. Supported formats are PDF, DOCX, TXT, and Markdown.

You can drop multiple files at once. Each file is queued and processed concurrently; you don't need to wait for one to finish before starting the next.

The platform default maximum file size is 10 MB. Files over the limit are rejected before upload starts.

What happens after upload

A freshly uploaded file moves through these statuses:

• Pending — queued, awaiting processing.
• Processing — GEOforge is reading and indexing the file.
• Ready — available for use across GEOforge.
• Error — something went wrong; hover the status for details.

While anything is pending or processing, a banner above the document list shows live counts and updates every few seconds. The list itself refreshes in the background, so file statuses change in place — you don't need to reload.

Searching and filtering documents

When the list has content, the toolbar above it gives you:

• Search — matches against filename.
• Filters — narrow by status (pending, processing, ready, error) or file type.
• Sort — change the order; defaults to most recently added first.

Changing any filter resets you to page 1. Pagination controls sit at the bottom of the list.

IG scores

Each ready file shows its IG (information gain) score in the document list. This score reflects how much novel, useful information that file contributes to your Knowledge Base relative to everything else already in it.

High-IG files are strong candidates for grounding. Low-IG files are usually near-duplicates of content already in your Knowledge Base — they're not harmful, but they don't add much.

Scores are recalculated automatically when new content is added that affects the surrounding corpus, so a file's score can change over time even if you don't touch it.

Importing Fireflies transcripts

If your company is connected to Fireflies, a separate Fireflies panel appears below Upload. The workflow is:

1. Pick a date range (Last 7 / 30 / 90 days, last 6 months, or All time) and click Sync. GEOforge pulls up to 250 recent transcripts.
2. Use the search box and checkboxes to pick the meetings you want.
3. Click Import to bring them into your Knowledge Base. They land in the documents list with status pending and are processed like any other upload.
4. Use Discard to drop transcripts from the sync list that you don't want to import — keeps the next sync uncluttered.

To set Fireflies up in the first place, your administrator connects it from the Settings page.

Deleting documents

Each row has a delete action. Deleting a file removes it and its chunks from your Knowledge Base immediately. There's no undo, so be deliberate — particularly for files that are heavily cited by existing generated content.

When the list is empty

If you haven't uploaded anything yet, you'll see an empty state in the Documents area that points you to the Upload card. If you've applied filters that match nothing, you'll see "No documents match your filters." instead — clear the filters to see everything.
