Short answer

How can I use my AI to answer support questions using KnowledgeOwl?

Your AI uses KnowledgeOwl to find relevant help articles and read their full text. This lets your agent provide direct answers pulled straight from your documentation. You'll see how the AI handles searches and content retrieval below.

Where your answers land.

The outcomes of a support query.

The AI processes incoming questions through these four paths.

AUTO

Instant answers

The AI finds the right article and provides the answer immediately. This handles routine questions without you needing to type a word.

DRAFT

Human-ready drafts

The AI pulls the necessary text and writes a response for you. You just check the facts and hit send.

SEARCH

Missing info alerts

If the AI can't find a matching article, it tells you. This highlights gaps in your documentation that need new content.

HUMAN

Escalated tickets

Complex issues that don't match your help center stay with you. The AI flags these so you can handle them personally.

The workflow

What your AI does when a question arrives.

The AI acts as a bridge between your user and your KnowledgeOwl library.

  1. Find the topic

    The AI looks through your help center to find articles that match the user's specific problem.

    search_help_center
  2. Read the details

    Once it finds a match, the AI pulls the full text of the article to ensure it has the complete answer.

    get_article_content
  3. Synthesize response

    The AI uses the retrieved text to write a clear answer for the user.

    get_article_content
  4. Verify accuracy

    The AI checks the retrieved content against the user's original question to ensure the answer is relevant.
