Knowledge Base

Knowledge Base lets your AI agent use uploaded documents when answering questions.

When to Use It

Use Knowledge Base for information that is not available through an API, such as:

  • Help articles.
  • Policy documents.
  • Product manuals.
  • Onboarding guides.
  • FAQs.

Use API tools instead when the answer must come from live system data.
