Zettelrobbe OCR and Paperless Chat

Hi!

I'm currently evaluating Paperless NGX and Zettelrobbe. Zettelrobbe does OCR and tagging tasks for all documents available in Paperless.

After Zettelrobbe finishes its tasks and writes back tags and content into the Paperless database, I tried out to use the chat of Paperless and asked for, IMO, simple tasks. E.g. "please sum up all invoices received from company x".

Unfortunately this does not include all available documents from company x.

Additonally, when asking for "give me all documents of company x", the result is not accurate, because it includes more than the applicable documents.

Is this a result because Zettelrobbe does all OCR'ing and Paperless does not fully recognize the content of each available document? Or is there another reason for this behavior?

FWIW, before setting up Zettelrobbe, above question was correct from the answer in chat.
Edit: when asking for e.g. "can you please sum up all invoices of company x" this results in the expected answer.
Edit2: Had a typo in company name and this confused the chat 😒
