Setting up an AI knowledge base from documents to a working chatbot in under 5 minutes is no longer a dream. Modern RAG platforms make it possible with just a few clicks.

What Is an AI Knowledge Base?

An AI knowledge base is a collection of your documents that an AI chatbot can search and reference when answering questions. Unlike a traditional FAQ page, it uses semantic search to find relevant information even when the user's question doesn't match exact keywords.

The 5-Minute Setup Process

Minute 1: Create Your Library

In Kodda, create a new knowledge base (Library). Give it a descriptive name like "Product Documentation" or "Customer Support FAQ."

Minutes 2-3: Upload Documents

Upload your documents in any supported format — PDF, DOCX, TXT, HTML. Drag and drop multiple files at once. The system immediately begins extracting text and chunking content.

Minute 4: Configure the Bot

Link your knowledge base to a chatbot. Set the bot name, welcome message, and tone. Choose which languages to support.

Minute 5: Embed and Go Live

Copy the embed code and paste it into your website's HTML. Your AI chatbot is now live and ready to answer questions from your documents.

Best Practices for Document Preparation

Use clear, structured documents — Headings, lists, and tables help the AI understand content hierarchy
Keep documents current — Remove outdated policies and update product specs regularly
One topic per document — Smaller, focused documents yield more precise retrieval
Include contact info — Make sure the bot knows when to direct users to human support

Auto-Sync: Keep Your Knowledge Base Fresh

Kodda supports automatic sync with Google Drive, Notion, and other data sources. When you update a document in your connected source, the chatbot's knowledge base updates automatically — no manual re-upload needed.

Monitor and Optimize

After going live, review conversation logs weekly. Look for questions the bot couldn't answer and add relevant documents. For deeper guidance, learn how to train a chatbot on your own documents. This feedback loop continuously improves your bot's accuracy.
