Korra

Overview

Korra is an AI search platform that turns organizational documents into question-answering portals. It is best suited to industrial teams that need employees to find and verify operational knowledge across files and connected applications. Its combination of visual answers and precise source navigation is compelling, though its small free allowance and custom-priced paid plans make it a less straightforward choice for teams seeking predictable, low-cost scaling.

Key features

Korra accepts DOC, DOCX, PPT, PDF, CSV, MP4, and MOV files. Its GLYPH engine can pair text answers with diagrams, schemas, process tables, and financial graphs, a useful distinction for technical material that loses context when reduced to plain text. Users can follow an answer to an exact data row or video second, helping them check the underlying source rather than rely on a summary alone.

Administrators can manage knowledge, create branded portals and filters, set response personas, and vet FAQ question-and-answer pairs. Portals can be published as a full page, widget, or SDK. Search and Dashboard APIs, Server-Sent Events streaming, and configurable UI widgets support embedding search in existing portals and dashboards; these options matter most to organizations with resources to integrate and maintain them.

Korra supports file uploads and automatic folder synchronization with SharePoint, Google Drive, and Dropbox, with automatic sync reserved for Business and Business Plus. Its ITSM page names Jira, Confluence, ServiceNow, GitHub, and SharePoint as integration targets. It also describes realtime content sync and role-based permission controls. Korra says it complies with ISO, GDPR, SOC2, and CCPA standards.

Deployment options include a customer VPC or isolated on-premises servers, plus tablet deployment. The product describes containerized data isolation, self-recovery, and secure over-the-air knowledge distribution for isolated stations. Those capabilities speak to industrial environments with deployment and isolation requirements, rather than teams looking only for a lightweight shared search box.

Pricing

Korra Free costs nothing and includes up to 100MB. That is enough for a small evaluation or limited collection, but a tight ceiling for a company-wide knowledge base.

Business and Business Plus have custom pricing, with pricing available by scheduling a demo or contacting Korra. Business includes up to 5GB and automatic cloud storage sync; Business Plus raises the allowance to 50GB and also includes automatic sync. They suit teams that need synced cloud folders and more room than Free, but prospective buyers must request pricing to compare cost against their storage needs.

Enterprise has custom pricing and supports up to 2TB. It is the tier aimed at larger content collections, but its price also requires contacting Korra. No trial or renewal terms are stated.

Platforms

Korra supports Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows, and web, along with API, extension, and self-hosted options. That range accommodates both end-user access and organization-specific deployment or integration.

Who it's for

Korra is aimed at industrial organizations, including manufacturing, semiconductor, industrial equipment, mobility, and robotics businesses. It is a strong fit when staff need answers grounded in operational documents, visual material, or video and administrators need to control how knowledge is presented. Smaller teams with modest storage needs can start on Free; organizations needing larger synchronized collections should weigh the custom-priced tiers. Teams that do not need source-level navigation, visual answers, or deployment controls may find a simpler search product more appropriate.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Exact row- and video-second navigation makes answers easier to verify against source material.
• Pros: Visual answer formats and support for office documents, spreadsheets, and video suit technical knowledge collections.
• Pros: VPC, on-premises, and isolated-station deployment options address industrial environments with tighter deployment needs.
• Cons: The free plan stops at 100MB, limiting its use beyond a small collection.
• Cons: Business, Business Plus, and Enterprise all require custom pricing, complicating budget comparisons.
• Cons: Automatic folder sync begins with Business, so Free users must do without that workflow.

Alternatives

For a free, self-hosted option, Fess is worth considering; it is available at no cost and supports Linux, macOS, Windows, web, and API. OpenSearch is another free, open-source choice at no cost with no licensing fees, for teams seeking a self-managed search platform. Both are alternatives for readers prioritizing free software over Korra's described visual answers and source navigation.

Elastic Search AI offers a free and open self-managed plan at no cost, plus a free trial; consider it if a full Elastic Stack is a better fit. PipesHub has a forever-free, self-hosted Community Edition with core indexing and search, BYO LLMs and embeddings, and a no-code agent builder, making it an option for teams wanting those capabilities in an open-source Docker deployment.

Dropbox Dash is a paid alternative with a free trial; its Dash for Teams plan costs $19 a month for up to 100 users. SWIRL AI Search offers a paid pilot at $12,000, paid once for 60–90 days, credited to the first annual contract, for buyers who want a paid evaluation. SearchBlox SearchAI costs $24,000 a year for hybrid search covering 10,000 documents or URLs and 100,000 searches per month. Sinequa is another paid option, available on web and self-hosted deployments.

Verdict

Korra is a strong choice for industrial organizations that need searchable operational knowledge with visual answers, source-level verification, and deployment options spanning cloud and isolated environments. Its clearest reason to choose it is the ability to follow an answer back to an exact row or video moment. Look elsewhere if 100MB is too little to evaluate your content or if your decision depends on knowing paid pricing upfront.
