What to look for in an AI knowledge base for a small business, so your team can just ask instead of interrupting Sarah.
Every small business has a Sarah: the one person who knows the prices, the clients, and where everything lives. Here's what to look for in an AI knowledge base for a small business, so your team can just ask.
What to look for
Knowledge is scattered across Google Drive, Dropbox, email, Slack, texts, and one person's head. McKinsey found that knowledge workers spend nearly 20% of their week looking for information or tracking down the colleague who has it. A good tool should fix that.
- One shared memory. It starts with what you already have: price lists, past quotes, client files, job notes, handbooks, and checklists. See Constella's company knowledge graph.
- Answers with sources. Ask "What's our weekend emergency rate?" and get $165 an hour, two-hour minimum, with the source attached so you can check it. Learn how reasoning search works.
- No IT team needed. Keep your files and your tools, sign up free, and invite your team when it's useful.
- Private by default. Your files stay private to your team and are never used to train AI. Read more on trust and data control.
Why it pays off
It's good for your business, because know-how stays when people leave. It's good for you, with fewer interruptions and real time off. And it's good for your customers, who get answers on the first call.
