What Is AI Settings?

 

AI Configuration is the control panel for every AI feature in your Knowledge Base. The Search & Assist tab holds four independent toggles — AI-Powered Search, In-Article AI, Smart Related Articles, and Help Bot — and the Writer's Style Guide tab controls how AI-generated content reads. Each setting can be enabled or disabled on its own, based on what your team needs.

 

Why Use It?

 

AI Settings give you control over which AI features are active in your Knowledge Base.

  • Your knowledge base has sensitive or restricted articles. AI-Powered Search never surfaces restricted articles in results, even when the feature is enabled.
  • Writers need to edit content faster inside an article. In-Article AI lets them chat to edit, summarize, or rephrase text without leaving the page.
  • AI-generated content needs to match your brand voice. Writer's Style Guide applies your font, color palette, tone, and writing rules to every AI output.

 

Example Use Cases

  • A knowledge base admin turns on AI-Powered Search so visitors get natural-language answers instead of keyword matches.
  • A support writer uses In-Article AI to rephrase a paragraph without switching to another tool.
  • A brand manager creates a custom Style Guide so AI-generated summaries match the company's writing standards.
