## What is included

- **Drafted from the incident:** When an incident is resolved, the symptom, the diagnosis and the fix are already recorded. An article is drafted from them and put in front of a human to approve, edit or discard.
- **Semantic search, not keyword matching:** Search by describing the problem in your own words. Meaning is matched rather than exact terms, so "Outlook keeps asking for the password" finds the article about a broken modern-authentication token.
- **Nothing published without approval:** The AI drafts; a person decides. An article is not visible to the desk until somebody with the right role has read it and said yes. Wrong documentation is worse than none.
- **Traceable back to the incidents:** Every article records the incidents it came from, so you can see the evidence behind it - and, from an incident, the article it contributed to.
- **Client-specific where it needs to be:** Some knowledge is universal and some applies to exactly one client’s awkward legacy application. Articles can be scoped either way, and client-specific articles surface first for that client.
- **Review dates on every article:** Articles carry a review date and an author. Documentation that has not been touched in two years is flagged as suspect rather than being quietly trusted.

## Real-world use cases

### A knowledgebase project abandoned twice

**Scenario:** Two attempts had been made to document common fixes - once in a wiki, once in a shared document library. Both reached about forty articles and stopped, because writing them was somebody’s Friday afternoon job and Friday afternoons kept being needed for something else.
**Outcome:** Articles are now drafted automatically at resolution and approved in a minute or two. The library grew past two hundred articles in the first quarter without anybody being asked to write documentation.

### Knowledge that left with an engineer

**Scenario:** A senior technician of nine years’ standing retired. Within a month the desk had spent days rediscovering three things he would have known instantly, and one client noticed the difference.
**Outcome:** His last eighteen months of resolved incidents had been drafted into articles and indexed. The retrieval surfaces them by meaning, so his experience is still answering questions.

### Documentation nobody could find

**Scenario:** The information existed, spread across a wiki, a shared drive and several long email threads. Finding it required knowing what it had been called, which meant asking the person who wrote it.
**Outcome:** Semantic search over one indexed corpus means the technician describes the symptom and gets the answer. Nobody needs to know the filename any more.

## Figures

- **At resolution** When the article is drafted, not on a Friday
- **Human** Approves every article before publication
- **By meaning** Search matches the problem, not the wording

## Frequently asked questions

**Does the AI publish articles by itself?**

No, and it will not be made to. Generation produces a draft; a person with the right role approves it. This is a deliberate design rule rather than a default setting, because confidently wrong documentation costs more than no documentation.

**Is our data used to train the model?**

No. Your content is sent to the model provider to answer a specific request and is not used for training. Retrieval is scoped to your tenant by construction - a search cannot reach another provider’s corpus because it is not in the index being searched.

**What is semantic search, in practice?**

Text is converted into a numerical representation of its meaning, and searching finds the closest matches to your description rather than documents containing the same words. It is why describing a symptom finds an article that never used your phrasing.

**Can we write articles by hand as well?**

Yes. Drafting from incidents is the mechanism that makes the library grow, not the only way in. Hand-written articles, runbooks and client-specific procedures sit in the same library and are indexed identically.

**How does it handle client-specific knowledge?**

An article can be scoped to a client, and those articles rank first when working on that client’s incidents. General articles remain available to everyone, so one client’s quirk does not pollute the general library.
