Training Overview

Your chatbot is only as good as its training data. Learn how to create a comprehensive knowledge base that enables accurate, helpful responses.

How AI Training Works

Unlike traditional chatbots that match keywords, Chatmefy uses advanced AI to truly understand your content and generate contextual responses.

1. Content Ingestion

Upload documents, crawl websites, or add Q&A pairs

2. AI Processing

Content is chunked, embedded, and indexed for semantic search

3. Response Generation

AI finds relevant content and generates natural responses

Getting Started with Training

  1. 1

    Start with your FAQ

    Add your most common questions and answers first. This covers the majority of visitor inquiries.

  2. 2

    Add product/service documentation

    Upload PDFs, help docs, or crawl your documentation site to cover detailed product information.

  3. 3

    Review unanswered questions

    Check your dashboard weekly for questions the bot couldn't answer, then add the missing information.

  4. 4

    Iterate and improve

    Training is ongoing. Regularly add new content and refine existing answers based on feedback.

Training Tips

Quality over quantity — well-written content beats large volumes of poor content

Use natural language — write answers how you'd actually speak to customers

Include variations — add different ways customers might ask the same question

Keep it current — outdated information can harm trust more than no information

Be specific — vague answers lead to follow-up questions and frustration

Test regularly — ask your bot questions and refine based on responses
