You can upload your FAQ file and query log to the system via FAQ Editor. Here is how to do it.

Rapid Resolution

Intercept support requests in the browser, before they are submitted to the ticket queue, and instantly resolve them by finding answers in FAQ.

If your website users can submit support requests via a web form, we can intercept these requests and instantly resolve about 20% of them.

How it works:

  • Add two lines of JS code to the page that hosts the "Contact support" web form
  • Users type questions into the form
  • Our JS intercepts them and sends them to Alterra Answers
  • Alterra Answers searches your knowledge base
  • The search results are displayed in a pop-up, along with two buttons: “My problem is solved” and “I still need help”
  • If the user clicks on "Solved", the issue is resolved
  • If the user clicks "I still need help", a ticket is created and sent to live support
  • You can see how many of these requests were resolved in the Analytics tab of the FAQ Editor

In a sense, the Alterra Answers is a search engine. You can give it a search engine interface.

However, Alterra Answers is a search engine on steroids. It is powered by artificial neural networks and can search by meaning, not just keywords.

Thanks to it, it has precision of up to 90%, whereas traditional Google-like keywords-based FAQ search solutions are accurate only 25% to 50% of the time.
