Upload Books
Upload your books as PDFs so the AI tools can ground their answers in your content.
Uploading from the Books Library
- Open your organization and go to Books Library.
- Add a PDF using either:
- Add books in the page header, to browse for a file.
- Drag & drop the PDF anywhere onto the library.
- Wait for the book to finish processing.
Books are uploaded one at a time.
Only admins and owners can upload books.
What happens after upload
Each book moves through these states:
Uploading → Processing → Ready
A book can only be opened and shared once it shows Ready. Processing extracts the book's pages and chapters, and draws from your organization's AI allowance.
Classly also fills in the book's details for you during processing — title, description, subject, board, grade, language, publisher, and topics — and generates a cover from the book itself. Review these once the book is Ready and correct anything that looks off, then share it with members.
Requirements & tips
- Format: PDF only, up to 50 MB per file.
- Use text-based PDFs — scanned or image-only PDFs can't be processed.
- One book per PDF, with pages in the correct order.
- If you reach your plan's book limit, upgrade your plan to add more.
