We hope you're enjoying your experience with ZenoChat! We are here to make your experience even better. Let's dive into the details now.

Knowledge Bases

Today, we are thrilled to announce the rollout of our newest feature: Knowledge Bases.

This powerful addition to our platform will allow you to upload your own documents and retrieve information from them directly within ZenoChat, making your AI companion even more versatile and useful.

You can even upload an 80-page PDF document and fetch information from it in 3 seconds.

FAQ

1. Do uploaded documents remain confidential?‍

Answer: Your knowledge base is bound to your TextCortex account. Data within your knowledge base is also not used for AI retraining. When you delete it, it's gone forever.

2. What benefits does my AI assistant have with my documents? ‍

Answer: Despite having access to large language models, most of the AI systems remain largely limited as they are not aware of details related to single entities or compact companies. We are bridging the gap to provide you with a more personalized experience.

Here's a quick guide on how to start using Knowledge Bases:

1. Navigate to the Knowledge section on our app. From there, click on the Knowledge Bases tab and hit the +New button.

2. Select a name for your Knowledge Base and then upload your desired files. We support various file formats such as PDF, DOCX, CSV, and PPTX to ensure seamless integration with your existing documents.

3. Once your files have been uploaded, you can head over to ZenoChat and choose your Knowledge Base under chat settings.

That's it! You're now ready to harness the full power of our new Knowledge Bases feature. You also have the option to connect third-party accounts such as Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive.

Here's a small example of what you can do with this powerful feature! ⬇️

Note: Keep in mind that all files are processed by TextCortex without the use of third parties. Refer to our article "How We Handle Data at TextCortex" for more information.

Upload Documents Directly on ZenoChat

You can also upload single documents without having to create a knowledge base first.

Once uploaded, you can go to your "Uploaded Documents" within the Files and Notes section of our app and assign them to one of your knowledge base later on.

Pro Advice

Make sure to be very specific when asking questions to your AI. Remember, your AI is as capable as your guidance; the more specific instructions you give, the better results you will get in return.

For instance, instead of saying: "Rewrite the whole file.", it's much more efficient to say "Rewrite the introduction section of my British History paper".

With this update, your AI companion can access an extensive repository of information tailored specifically to your needs, providing even more accurate and relevant responses to user queries.

As always, feel free to reach out to our team if you have any questions or need assistance. We're here to help you make the most of your ZenoChat experience.
