The problem it solves

Your support team spends too much time digging through manuals to answer the same product questions over and over, and answers can vary depending on who responds. Customers want quick, accurate help right in WhatsApp, not a support ticket queue.

Who it fits

Support teams and product specialists at companies with detailed product documentation who want faster, more consistent WhatsApp support.

How it works

  1. You load your product documentation into the system once
  2. The documents are broken into chunks and indexed for search
  3. A customer sends a question by text, voice note, photo, or document on WhatsApp
  4. The system finds the most relevant parts of your documentation
  5. AI writes an accurate answer and remembers the conversation as it continues
What you get

Documentation questions answered without a support ticket

Customers can ask questions by text, voice, photo, or PDF on WhatsApp and get answers pulled straight from your documentation.

What you get

An accurate, documentation-grounded answer sent back to the customer on WhatsApp.

What you need

A WhatsApp Business account, a Google Docs account, an OpenAI account, and a MongoDB database.

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.
