Documentation chatbot
Turn your documentation into an AI chatbot that answers with sources
Readers shouldn't have to open five pages to find one answer. Aidfolk reads your docs site, manuals and notes, answers questions in plain language, and links to the exact page, and the page number in a PDF, that it used.
Sound familiar?
The problem
Search finds pages, not answers
Keyword search lists every page that mentions a word. Readers want the one sentence that answers their question.
Manuals nobody reads
Long PDFs hold the details that matter, and almost no one scrolls to page 47 to find them.
No idea what readers can't find
Your docs team writes in the dark: there's no list of the questions people asked and didn't get answered.
The answer

Setup
What to give your agent
Start with the content your customers already read. You can add more any time.
- Your documentation or help center site
- PDF and Word manuals, handbooks and guides
- Release notes and migration guides
- Notes for definitions, edge cases and FAQs
Questions an agent like this answers
- How do I install the command-line tool on Windows?
- What does error E1042 mean?
- Which settings does a production setup need?
- Where's the guide to migrating from version 2 to 3?
- Is there a limit on file uploads?
Documentation: common questions
Does the chatbot keep up when we change our docs?
When you update a page, read it again with one click (or a whole site with “Read all again”). The old text keeps answering until the new text replaces it, so there's never a gap.
Can it read PDFs and show which page an answer came from?
Yes. PDFs and other documents keep their page numbers, and answers cite them, like “Admin guide › Roles, p. 3”. Scanned PDFs need a text layer, since images of text can't be read.
What about docs sites built with JavaScript?
Aidfolk reads the HTML a page sends. If your docs only render in the browser, add them as files (an export of your docs) instead.
Can readers ask in other languages?
Yes. The agent replies in the language of the question, using your content whatever language it's written in.
