Zettelrobbe replaces Paperless AI

In my last post about Paperless NGX a new application called Paperless AI was introduced as a very promissing approach to utilize a local LLM to enhance the meta data of documents in SeedDMS and to be able to chat about the documents.

Unfortunetly, the development of Paperless AI has stopped, but a new project called Zettelrobbe continues the work. Zettelrobbe has removed some features like the RAG based AI chat and rather focuses on finding appropriate meta data. The software can easily handle large document archives without using lots of resources. The dashboard remains snappy even during document processing

The latest release of the paperless extension (version 1.6.6) has been tested with Zettelrobbe.

If you would like to test it yourself then just install it as described on the web page. Instead of configuring the Paperless NGX server, fill in the url of the REST API of SeedDMS (https://your-server/restapi/index.php/). Do not start with your super important documents, because Zettelrobbe will change the meta data of your documents, including the title. This can be configured and turned off, but the intial configuration allows Zettelrobbe to make various changes.
