How do I add my own data to an AI assistant?

Upload documents into the assistant's knowledge base. It will index them and cite them when it answers — no coding or fine-tuning required.

Key takeaways

  • Upload documents into the assistant's knowledge base.
  • It will index them and cite them when it answers.
  • no coding or fine-tuning required.

Every SynaBot assistant has a knowledge base. Drop in your SOPs, brand guide, product docs, past emails or FAQs and the assistant will search them when it answers.

Two rules for good results:

  • Prefer plain text or clean PDFs. Screenshots and scanned images work but retrieval is worse.
  • Split huge documents into topic-scoped files. It helps the retriever pick the right chunk.
