How statuses are assigned

Definition and scope

What this capability means

This row covers common document attachments such as plain text, rich text, word-processing files, presentations, and spreadsheets. Evidence should list exact formats and distinguish plain-text extraction from retained tables, formulas, notes, comments, charts, images, layout, and workbook or slide structure.

Macros, external links, encrypted files, tracked changes, hidden sheets, and embedded objects are separate risk and fidelity boundaries. When a connector opens a cloud document by reference, record that path separately from a direct upload.

Traceable compatibility

Documentation evidence only. No runtime conformance test is implied.

Evidence
  1. 1. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: xAI's Grok FAQ lists DOCX, TXT, CSV, XLSX, PPTX, HTML, XML, JSON, and Markdown as direct Grok chat inputs and describes comparison, extraction, spreadsheet analysis, and document transformation.
  2. 2. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Grok Bot lists plain text, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, CSV, JSON, YAML, source code, HTML, email, and Jupyter notebooks as common desktop inputs, with six attachments per message and a 25 MB limit per document.
  3. 3. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Claude accepts DOCX, CSV, TXT, HTML, ODT, RTF, EPUB, JSON, and XLSX on its web and desktop surfaces; XLSX requires code execution. Non-PDF documents are handled as extracted text, so layout and embedded-image fidelity are not established.
  4. 4. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Gemini Apps document uploads for documents, spreadsheets, notebooks, and code folders or repositories, but the reviewed help page does not enumerate every office extension or promise formula, chart, presentation, comment, or embedded-object fidelity.
  5. 6. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Perplexity Enterprise file connectors support Google Docs, Slides, and Sheets plus DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, XLS, CSV, RTF, ODT, Markdown, JSON, and TXT. The reviewed direct-upload page describes textual-file uploads without enumerating those office extensions, so this cell is limited to the connector path.
  6. 7. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Microsoft Copilot web accepts DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, CSV, TXT, JSON, and Markdown uploads and can analyze and extract information from them.
  7. 8. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Mistral's current Vibe Work documentation, which supersedes Le Chat at chat.mistral.ai, accepts Word, PowerPoint, Excel, CSV, ODT, RTF, ODS, Numbers, and other document formats and reads their content as task context.
