Knowledge Base — train your AI from internal data in minutes
Turn closed tickets, FAQs, documents, and your website into an AI that answers customer questions accurately — no technical knowledge required.
The Knowledge Base is where you train your AI using your own internal data — in minutes, without any technical knowledge. Add content from four sources: solved conversations from your unified inbox, manually written FAQs, uploaded documents (PDF, DOCX, or TXT), or by crawling your website. The AI indexes everything and starts answering customer questions accurately right away.

FAQ
What content types can I add to the Knowledge Base?
SendSeven Knowledge Base supports four source types: website URLs (auto-crawl), file uploads (PDF, DOCX, or TXT), Managed FAQs (Q&A pairs), and closed support tickets. You can combine all four in a single KB.
How often does the Knowledge Base crawl and sync my website?
URL sources auto-crawl on your schedule: hourly, daily, or weekly. You can also trigger manual crawls anytime. Syncing typically completes within minutes, and the AI learns from updated content immediately.
How accurate are the AI answers?
Accuracy depends on your source content quality. The AI searches your KB and returns context-aware answers. If your FAQ is clear and well-organized, the AI will give highly accurate answers. You can test and refine your KB anytime.
Can I have multiple Knowledge Bases?
Yes. You can create separate KBs for different AI bots or departments. Each KB can have its own set of sources and settings. You choose which KB to use when configuring an AI Support Bot.
What file formats can I upload?
SendSeven supports PDF, DOCX, and TXT file uploads. The AI indexes your documents within minutes. For other formats (Excel, Google Docs), export to PDF or DOCX first.
How do I update my Knowledge Base after I've created it?
Use the KB settings panel: add new URLs (which auto-crawl), upload additional PDFs, or edit FAQ pairs. URL sources resync automatically per schedule. Changes are reflected in your AI's answers within minutes.
Can I test answers before publishing my AI?
Yes. SendSeven includes a built-in test panel in the Knowledge Base editor. Ask sample questions and see exactly what answers your AI will give. Refine your KB until you're satisfied with accuracy.
