Frequently Asked Questions
- How does the bot find answers to questions?
- The FAQ bot uses Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to search your knowledge base for the most relevant content, then generates a natural-language answer grounded in that source material. It doesn't guess β it finds and cites.
- What happens when the bot can't answer a question?
- Unanswered questions are logged in the knowledge gap report so you can see what content is missing. The bot tells the visitor it doesn't have an answer and can offer to connect them with a human.
- Can I see which questions are asked most often?
- Yes. The analytics dashboard shows popular questions, search terms, and topic trends. Use this data to prioritize which FAQ content to add or improve.
- Does feedback actually improve the bot's answers?
- Feedback identifies which answers need improvement. When visitors downvote an answer, you can review the question and update your knowledge base content. The bot's quality improves as your content improves.
