The problem it solves

Customers and staff ask the same questions again and again, and finding the right page to answer them wastes time. You want a fast, accurate way for people to get answers without digging through your site.

Who it fits

Support teams and businesses with a content-heavy website who want to cut down repetitive questions.

How it works

  1. The system reads through every page listed on your website's sitemap
  2. It stores the content in a searchable knowledge base
  3. When someone asks a question in chat, the AI searches that knowledge base
  4. It replies with an answer based on your website's actual content
What you get

Answers pulled straight from your website

You get a chatbot that answers visitor questions directly using the content already published across your website.

What you get

An AI chat assistant that answers visitor or staff questions using your website's own content.

What you need

A website with a sitemap, a Redis database, and a Google Gemini API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
