How to Use the Knowledge Library

Anything you put here, Kai can quote on a call — policies, FAQs, reply templates, scoring rules.

What This Screen Is For

Open Dashboard > Business > Knowledge. The page header shows your business name, the total number of items in the library, and an Add Knowledge button.

Use the search bar to filter items by title, content, category, or tag.

Adding a Knowledge Item

  1. Click Add Knowledge.
  2. Enter a Title — something Kai can use to find this entry, like “Product Returns Policy.”
  3. Pick a Type from the dropdown:
    • General Text — the default, for FAQs and policies
    • Reply Example — sample responses to common situations
    • Proposal Example — templates for outbound proposals
    • Follow-up Example — templates for follow-up messages
    • PDF Document or Word Document — for content pulled from a file
  4. Add an optional Category (e.g., Policies, FAQ) for grouping.
  5. Paste or write the Content. Plain text, or markdown if you marked the type as markdown.
  6. Add Tags by typing each one and pressing Enter or clicking Add.
  7. Click Add Knowledge.

Kai can reference the new entry on the next call.

The Four Tabs

The library has four views you can switch between:

  • Table — dense table view with columns for title, type, category, content preview, tags, created date, and edit/delete actions. Best on desktop.
  • Cards — one card per entry with the full content visible. Better when you want to read several entries at once.
  • Examples — groups your reply, proposal, and follow-up templates into three columns so you can scan them side-by-side.
  • Lead Scoring — manage lead scoring rules (see below).

Editing and Deleting Entries

Every row and card has two icon buttons:

  • Pencil — opens the entry in the edit dialog.
  • Trash — deletes the entry after confirmation.

Updates take effect immediately — Kai uses the latest version on the next call.

Lead Scoring Rules

The Lead Scoring tab is where you tell Kai how to rate inbound leads. Two ways to create rules:

  • New Rule — manually define a name, description, JSON rules block (with score and criteria fields), and active status.
  • Generate Rules — Kai reads your business profile and recent calls, then writes a starter set of scoring rules for you. Edit them after if you want.

Each saved rule shows its score weight (0–100), active state, criteria, and any specific conditions. Rules with higher scores push leads higher in the hot/warm ranking on the Leads page.

How Kai Uses Your Library

  • Kai automatically pulls in matching entries during customer conversations.
  • Use categories and tags to keep things organized as the library grows.
  • Update an entry and Kai uses the new version on the next call.
  • Hide outdated information by deleting it — Kai will not reference anything you remove.
