Tips for better AI responses

Both agents are only as good as the context you give them. A few habits make a real difference.

Be specific, not exhaustive

Short, focused entries retrieve and answer more accurately than long documents that try to cover everything at once. If a source is answering more than one question, split it.

Test before you trust it

The Support Agent has a built-in test chat on its Actions tab. Ask it the questions you expect customers to ask, in their own words — not just the exact phrasing of your source titles.

Watch what fails

Both agents log what they couldn’t handle confidently — failed responses for Support, low-confidence drafts for Sales. Recurring failures are your best signal for what to add or rewrite next, not a sign something’s broken.

Update it as things change

A knowledge base or AI Knowledge profile that’s six months stale will confidently give outdated answers. Treat it as something you revisit, not a one-time setup step.

Put it into practice

Review your knowledge base or AI Knowledge and tighten it up.
