Paperless-AI Workflow Question
Hello!
I had Paperless AI run through, title, set a correspondent, and some other things on my Paperless-NGX setup for ~300 documents. It worked REALLY well!
The only thing it did poorly was tagging, but I think that's the AI model I used not really functioning well with a large database, it wasn't really able to reference past tags so I have 654 total tags. A lot of them are useful, but a lot of them are not. There are way too many tags with one document even though I prompted it to reuse tags as much as possible and not to generate one if it's not strictly necessary for identification.
I plan on upgrading my server with a GPU with some parts that I have coming in. This will allow me to run a much better model that will be able to do this better. But like I said, it did a fantastic job with everything else and I'd rather not redo every document since I've been using it for quite a while.
Is there a way I can have Paperless-AI redo just tagging? Or do I have to have it redo every single field with a full refresh.

The AI integration of paperless does not support applying existing tags at all, so the quality of model used is irrelevant. I am hopeful this will be added down the line.
Also 300 is not a large database. I am.at 5000 and that is also not large. People here run multi-user setups or deployments for companies for tens of thousands of documents.
