AI Assistant

Resolve Support Questions
Before They Become Tickets

An AI-powered assistant that answers your users' questions instantly, pulling verified answers
from your knowledge base, docs, and guides. Set it up in minutes, no code needed.

Your support content, working 24/7

UserGuiding's AI Assistant reads your knowledge base articles, PDFs, external URLs, text snippets, and in-app guides, then delivers accurate, sourced answers in a conversational chat widget. It responds in whatever language your users write in and auto-detects their browser language.

When it can't answer a question, it hands off to your support team through configurable fallback actions like opening your chatbot, redirecting to a URL, or triggering a guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AI Assistant?

AI Assistant is an AI-powered chatbot accessed through a widget in-app that delivers answers to questions by your users, leveraging sources you add (knowledge base, URLs, PDF files) and powered by OpenAI's GPT models.

What counts as an AI resolution?

A chat is defined as resolved only when the customer confirms that any answer provided is satisfactory or exits the conversation without requesting further assistance.

You are not charged for every interaction or message sent to the AI Assistant; you only pay for successful resolutions where the user confirms the assistance was effective.

For more details on Resolved, Unresolved, and Ongoing statuses, click here.

How does the AI Assistant pricing work?

Every UserGuiding account includes 50 free resolution credits upon creation to help you get started. You are only charged after these 50 free resolutions are exhausted.

Billing is based on completed resolutions, not for every message or interaction. The standard rate is $0.69 per completed resolutions.

To control your budget, you can set a monthly resolution limit, ensuring you never exceed a specific amount. For high-volume needs, Enterprise plans offer bulk purchase discounts. Please schedule a demo with our sales team to discuss custom packages.
