What is the Knowledge Base?
The Knowledge Base is a structured collection of topics and answers that your assistant can reference to:- Answer customer questions accurately
- Provide consistent information across all calls
- Reference specific details about your products, services, or policies
Structure
The Knowledge Base uses a simple key-value format where each key is a topic and the value is the information the assistant should know:Common Topics
| Topic | What to Include |
|---|---|
| Pricing | Cost structure, payment terms, pricing tiers |
| Capacity | Volume limits, availability, scale |
| Use Cases | Specific scenarios your product/service supports |
| Product Features | Key capabilities and benefits |
| Scheduling Times | Business hours, availability windows |
| Other Questions | Fallback response for questions outside scope |
Performance Consideration
The Knowledge Base content is included in every request to the AI. Larger knowledge bases increase response latency:For every ~500 words added to the Knowledge Base, expect an additional ~500ms of turn latency.Keep your Knowledge Base concise and focused on information the assistant actually needs to reference during calls. Remove redundant or rarely-used content to maintain fast response times.
Best Practices
- Be concise — Include only essential information to minimize latency impact
- Use clear topics — Name keys descriptively so the assistant knows when to use them
- Include fallbacks — Add an “Other Questions” entry for graceful handling of unknown topics
- Avoid duplication — Don’t repeat information across multiple entries
- Update regularly — Keep information current as your offerings change
Knowledge Base vs Guidelines
| Aspect | Knowledge Base | Guidelines |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Provide factual information | Shape behavior and responses |
| Content | Specific data, prepared answers | Condition-response rules |
| Format | Topic-value pairs | If-then rules |
| Example | "Pricing": "On a cents per minute basis" | ”If asked about pricing, be transparent” |
Next Steps
- Guidelines — Add behavioral rules for specific situations
- Call Objectives — Define what your assistant should accomplish
