FAQ from Morphik
What makes Morphik different from other AI knowledge tools?
Morphik isn’t a chat wrapper over a vector DB—it’s a full-stack research OS. It unifies ingestion, multimodal grounding, agent-driven reasoning, knowledge graph construction, and secure deployment in one open architecture—designed for reproducibility, auditability, and deep domain integration.
Which file types and formats does Morphik support out-of-the-box?
Morphik natively handles PDFs (with embedded fonts, tables, and annotations), PowerPoint/Keynote decks, Excel sheets, Markdown, LaTeX, SVG, PNG/JPEG diagrams, technical schematics (including KiCad and Altium exports), CAD metadata, and web-scraped content—all without requiring preprocessing or lossy OCR.
Is Morphik’s source code publicly available—and what license applies?
Yes. The core Morphik engine (morphik-core) is 100% open source under the permissive Apache 2.0 License. All documentation, SDKs, and reference integrations are also MIT-licensed and hosted on GitHub.
How does Morphik interpret diagrams, flowcharts, and technical illustrations?
Using “Diagram Intelligence,” Morphik performs joint visual-textual embedding: detecting components, connections, labels, and spatial relationships within schematics and block diagrams. Queries like *“Show all circuits where U1 connects to R5”* or *“Find thermal management diagrams referencing liquid cooling”* return precise, grounded results—not just similar images.
What counts as a “page” in Morphik’s usage model?
A “page” equals one logical knowledge unit: a PDF page, slide, HTML document, or image file. For high-resolution diagrams, Morphik applies intelligent tiling—only charging for unique semantic regions—not pixel count. Overages roll monthly; unused pages do not expire.
Can Morphik run entirely behind my firewall—with no external dependencies?
Absolutely. Morphik supports fully offline, air-gapped deployments—including FIPS-compliant cryptography, local LLM orchestration, and zero telemetry. Enterprise plans include hardened Kubernetes Helm charts, SELinux profiles, and FedRAMP-aligned hardening guides.
