Proofsource and Google Drive: your real facts, in every fix
Google Drive lets you pick the Docs, Sheets, Slides, PDFs and Word files that hold your true product, pricing and policy facts and bring them into a Proofsource knowledge base. Fixes are then written from your own words, and AI answers are checked against them. It opens soon, starting with early access.

Why we love Google Drive
In the makers' own words, from their own pages. Proofsource builds on it, never around it.
Storage that scales with the team
Google Drive scales from 15GB to 5TB per user, and lets owners share with edit, comment or view access, so one file can serve a whole company.
From workspace.google.comSearch that finds the right file
Drive's AI-powered search returns results based on what you have been working on, which helps people find the file or folder they need without remembering where it lives.
From workspace.google.comDocs that teams write together
Google Docs lets many people edit the same document at once, comment, assign tasks and restore any earlier version, which is why so many company facts live there.
From workspace.google.comHow Proofsource uses Google Drive
Brings the Docs, Sheets, Slides, PDFs and Word files you pick into a knowledge base, so fixes use your real facts.
- Connect
Sign in once, read-only
One connection for your workspace. Proofsource asks only to read, and only the files you choose in the Google file picker.
- Read
Bring your files into a knowledge base
Each item you pick is read as plain text and filed in the knowledge base and folder you choose, ready to search.
- Act
Write fixes from your real facts
Drafts and corrections use what the brand itself says, so a page about Driffle's pricing model or security matches your own wording, not a guess.
- Prove
Check engines repeat the truth
Proofsource compares what ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and the other engines say against those facts and shows which ones they repeat.

Questions about Proofsource and Google Drive
Can I connect Google Drive today?
Not yet. Google Drive opens soon. When it does, it appears in Integrations under Your knowledge and in each knowledge base's add source menu.
What will Proofsource read?
Proofsource opens only the files you choose in Google's picker, and files it creates, such as a fix saved as a Google Doc. It reads Docs, Sheets, Slides, PDFs and Word files as text. It cannot browse the rest of your Drive.
Will Proofsource change or delete anything?
No. The connection is read-only, so Proofsource cannot edit, move or delete anything in Google Drive. It reads the items you pick and files a text copy in your knowledge base.
How does this help my AI visibility?
AI engines repeat what they can find and what you have clearly said. Bringing your real documents into a knowledge base lets Proofsource write fixes that state your facts accurately, check engines against them, and flag claims that do not match.
How do I disconnect it?
Open Integrations, find the Google Drive card and choose Disconnect. The stored sign-in is removed. Text already imported stays in your knowledge base until you delete those items.
What does Coming soon mean here?
It means Google Drive opens soon, starting with early access. Nothing is stored about your Google Drive account until you connect it.
Which AI engines does Proofsource check?
Up to 10 depending on your plan: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek and Meta AI. The free scan and trial run four.
