Introduction

TeamAI offers a powerful solution for creating personalized chatbots that act as expert assistants for your products. Imagine having a ChatGPT-like experience tailored specifically to your website, instantly answering visitors' questions and providing them with the information they need. In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of setting up your own helpdesk chatbot using TeamAI.

Creating a New Assistant

To get started, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Assistant section within the TeamAI platform.

  2. Click on the "Create Assistant" button.

  3. Enter a title for your chatbot, such as "Helpdesk Bot," and select an appropriate category.

Configuring Your Chatbot

Once you've created your assistant, it's time to configure its settings:

  1. Description: Provide a clear and concise description of what your chatbot does. This will help users understand its purpose and capabilities.

  2. Image: Change the default avatar to a custom image that represents your brand or the chatbot's personality. This adds a visual touch to the user experience.

  3. Instructions: In the instructions field, specify what you'd like the AI assistant to know about you or your products to provide better responses. This additional context helps the chatbot deliver more accurate and relevant information to users.

  4. Model Selection: TeamAI offers a wide range of AI models to choose from, including options from OpenAI, Google Gemini, Anthropic, and Meta AI. Select the model that best suits your needs and aligns with your chatbot's purpose.

Training Your Chatbot with a Knowledgebase

To equip your chatbot with knowledge about your website and products, you'll need to create a knowledgebase using TeamAI's Datastores feature. Here's how:

  1. Understand the supported document types for training your chatbot. TeamAI allows you to use various formats, including webpages, PDFs, and more. Refer to the Supported Document Types article for details.

  2. Create a collection in Datastores to store your website's content. You have two options:

    • Option 1: Train on individual webpages by selecting the "Webpage" document type and adding the URLs of the specific pages you want to include.

    • Option 2: Train on your entire website by choosing the "Website" document type and entering your website's URL. TeamAI will crawl and index all the pages automatically.

  3. After creating the collection, select it in the Knowledgebase field of your chatbot's configuration. This will enable your chatbot to access and utilize the information from your website.
