What is the Knowledge Base?
The Knowledge Base is your AI receptionist’s brain. It contains everything the AI knows about your business — your services, prices, opening hours, FAQs, policies, and more. The better your Knowledge Base, the smarter your AI sounds on calls. Think of it like training a new employee. The more information you give them, the better they handle customer questions.Where does the information come from?
Your Knowledge Base is populated from 5 different sources:Website Scrape
When you sign up, we automatically scan your website and extract business information — services, prices, hours, contact details, and FAQs.
Google Business Profile
If you have a Google Business Profile (the listing that shows up in Google Maps), we pull your hours, reviews, address, phone number, and photos.
Manual Entry
You can add, edit, or delete any piece of information directly in the dashboard. Manual edits always take priority over scraped data.
Document Upload
Upload PDF, TXT, or CSV files — price lists, service menus, policy documents. The AI reads them and adds the information to your Knowledge Base.
AI Call Learning
After every call, the AI analyses the transcript. If a caller asked something the AI could not answer, it creates a suggestion for you to review and approve.
The 12 knowledge categories
Every piece of information in your Knowledge Base belongs to one of these categories:| Category | What it covers | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Services | What you offer | ”We offer emergency plumbing, boiler repair, and bathroom fitting” |
| Pricing | How much things cost | ”Callout fee is £75, boiler service is £120” |
| Hours | When you are open | ”Monday to Friday 8am-6pm, Saturday 9am-1pm” |
| Location | Where you are | ”Based in Manchester, covering a 20-mile radius” |
| Booking | How appointments work | ”We offer same-day appointments for emergencies” |
| Policies | Terms, guarantees, cancellations | ”24-hour cancellation policy, all work guaranteed for 12 months” |
| Team | Staff information | ”Dave has 15 years experience and is Gas Safe registered” |
| FAQ | Common questions | ”Yes, we offer free estimates for all jobs” |
| Promotions | Current offers | ”10% off boiler servicing this month” |
| Payments | How to pay | ”We accept card, bank transfer, and cash” |
| Emergency | Out-of-hours procedures | ”For emergencies outside hours, call our emergency line” |
| Custom | Anything else | Whatever does not fit the other categories |
