Knowledge Base

Upload documents to give your AI assistant domain-specific knowledge

The Knowledge Base allows you to upload documents that your AI assistant can reference when answering questions, providing accurate and contextual responses grounded in your content.

Knowledge base

How It Works

  1. Upload documents to an assistant's knowledge base
  2. When the assistant receives a message, it searches the knowledge base for relevant information
  3. Matching content is included as context for generating the response
  4. Knowledge base information takes priority over general model knowledge

Uploading Documents

  1. Go to Settings → AI and select an assistant
  2. Navigate to the Knowledge Base section
  3. Click Upload
  4. Select one or more files
  5. Documents are processed and indexed automatically

Resolution Priority

When answering questions, the assistant checks sources in this order:

  1. Knowledge base (highest priority)
  2. Conversation context
  3. Assistant instructions
  4. General model knowledge (lowest priority)

Best Practices

  • Upload comprehensive documentation — Product docs, FAQs, policy documents
  • Keep documents up-to-date — Remove outdated files and upload new versions
  • Use clear formatting — Well-structured documents produce better search results
  • Organize by topic — Upload focused documents rather than one massive file

Knowledge base processing may take a few minutes for large documents. Once processed, the assistant can immediately reference the content.
