The AI is generally smart, but it doesn’t know YOUR business out of the box. The Knowledge Base is where you teach it the things only you know — your pricing tiers, your service area edge cases, what materials you bring, your weekend policy, your warranty terms. Every entry you add makes the AI’s responses more accurate and on-brand.Documentation Index

What’s already there (auto-trained)
When you set up your account, we use your business profile as the AI’s foundation:- Your services (from onboarding)
- Your business hours
- Your service area
- Your AI tone / voice (set in Settings → Business)
- Your description (“what does this business do”)
What you should add
Anything you find yourself saying on calls or texts. Common candidates:- Pricing tiers — “basic install starts at 1,499”
- Service area edges — “we cover up to 30 miles from downtown; outside that we charge a $50 trip fee”
- Materials policy — “we provide all parts unless customer specifies brand”
- Emergency pricing — “after-hours calls are 1.5× day rate”
- Warranty terms — “30-day labor warranty on all installs”
- What we don’t do — “we don’t service commercial properties” or “we don’t take jobs under $200”
- Common objections — “yes, we accept credit cards”; “yes, we’re insured”; “yes, we’ll bring shoe covers”
How the AI uses entries
When the AI is composing a reply to a customer (call transcript, text, chat), it:- Reads the customer’s message
- Searches the knowledge base for relevant entries (semantic search, not keyword)
- Pulls the top matches into context
- Composes the reply using those matches + your general business profile
Format
Each entry has:- Question — how a customer would phrase the question (or topic). E.g., “What’s your service area?”
- Answer — your business’s response, in plain language. E.g., “We cover all of Ottawa, Kanata, Barrhaven, and Nepean. Outside those areas, we charge a $50 trip fee. Service to communities south of Highway 417 may have a longer scheduling window.”
- Tags (optional) — for organization; e.g.,
pricing,service-area
How many entries should I have?
Start with 10–20. The most common questions you get. Don’t try to write a knowledge base of 200 entries on day one — it’s exhausting and a lot of them won’t matter. Watch your AI’s actual replies for the first few weeks. When you see a reply where the AI guessed wrong or said something generic, that’s your signal to add an entry. Iterate.Next
