Get Started
About Chatbase
Chatbase enables businesses and individuals to build custom AI chatbots using their own content. The process involves uploading data sources such as PDF, TXT, DOC, or DOCX files, or simply providing a website link for the platform to scrape. The service then uses this information to train a chatbot that can accurately answer questions based on the provided knowledge base. Users can customize their chatbot's behavior by editing the base prompt, assigning it a personality, and providing specific instructions. For more advanced conversational capabilities, it offers the option to use models like GPT-4. Once created, the chatbot can be embedded directly onto a website as a chat widget. For deeper integration into existing workflows, Chatbase provides an API, as well as connections with platforms like Slack and Zapier. This allows businesses to automate customer support, capture leads by collecting user information during conversations, and create internal knowledge bases for employees, ultimately streamlining information access and improving operational efficiency.
