What is a knowledge base
A knowledge base is basically a collection of FAQ's documents, and articles which are used to train the AI and provide the information necessary for virtual agents in order to answer guest questions accurately and quickly.
What does a knowledge base typically include?

How to structure a knowledge base
Structuring a knowledge base is critical as it puts data together in an easy-to-understand way.
1 - Each paragraph and chunk of text should be concise and connected.
Like meets Like. Meaning, information on a topic should be in one place, and grouped together. Anything related to check in should be in a paragraph associated with check in. Anything related to parking should be in a paragraph around parking. Spreading content out and mixing sections can be detrimental to bot performance.
Imaging you are writing content for a virtual assistant - you want to make it as easy as possible for them to find the right answer and the right content. And the best way to do this is to group data together and make finding content intuitive.
2 - Split up the knowledge base into sections
While Yada automatically formats data and arranges it into sections in the background, putting sections next to each other logically helps the AI find the right answer more quickly and more reliably.
3 - Just provide content. FAQ formats are not needed
The bot is really good at recognizing all sorts of formatting, so providing your data in an FAQ or Q/A format is not needed.
Of course, if you knowledge base data is already in an FAQ format, feel free to paste it in "as-is".
4 - Start paragraphs with General Info, and finish them with Details
Starting your knowledge base with broad information and then diving into specific details is crucial for ensuring that the AI can provide accurate and comprehensive responses to guest inquiries. By providing a general overview first, you set the context for the more detailed information that follows, making it easier for the virtual assistant to understand and retrieve the relevant data.
For example, if a guest is asking about parking instructions, you could start by outlining the general parking situation for the property, such as the number of available spots and any restrictions or regulations. Then, you could provide more specific details about where the guest should park, how to access the parking area, and any additional instructions they need to follow. This approach not only helps the AI provide more accurate answers, but it also makes the information more accessible and understandable for guests.
Template Knowledge Base
Below is a template knowledge base which is filled out to the max. We would suggest using a format like this and going into as much detail as this template.
Description
Stay at our beautifully renovated flagship property under the amazing Yada brand! We acquired this 1899 Colonial home in the heart of Cambridge in June of 2020 and did a gut renovation with period accents, professional kitchen, and top of the line furniture. Being right next to Harvard Square, this property is over 2,000 square feet. There are three full sized bedrooms with three queen beds. There are three full bathrooms. And all the couches in the living area can double up as pullout beds.
Getting There
Access to this rental is incredibly convenient, and there are a number of different ways to get here, no matter how you're traveling to Cambridge or Boston.
From the Airport: This rental is a quick hop from Logan airport, and depending on the traffic getting to and from the airport shouldn't take more than 20 or 30 minutes. The easiest way to get here from the airport is to take the Sliver Line train and get off at Downtown Crossing. From there take the red line to Harvard Square. Alternatively, you can take an Uber or a Taxi. This will usually cost anywhere from $25 to $40 depending on the traffic and time of day.
Getting Inside
This listing is located on a very quiet tree lined street. Once you arrive, you will find a black lockbox chained to the front porch steps. Inside the lockbox you'll find two keys - one with a black keyring and the other with a green one. The black key opens the front door, and the green key opens the shed in the back yard.
The lock can sometimes stick. If it does stick, just jiggle the locking lever back to vertical and try again.
The check-in process for this rental is seamless and stress-free. At 4pm the day prior to your arrival, our system will automatically send you the check-in instructions, including the door code, to the email address provided during booking. You can simply access these instructions from your inbox and follow them step by step to gain entry to the property.
Difficulties getting inside
If you hear any noise from the keypad, it means the battery is working fine. However, make sure not to press the lock button again after entering the code as it will re-lock the keypad. To avoid any difficulties, let's double-check the code you're using to ensure it's correct.
Early Check In
When it comes to early check-ins, we want to be as accommodating as possible. Unfortunately, due to the scheduling of our cleaning staff and the previous guest's departure, we cannot guarantee an early check-in time. However, we do offer an early luggage drop-off option for a small fee of $25. This way, you can start exploring the beautiful city of Charleston without having to lug around your bags.
If you are interested in this option, simply let us know and we'll be happy to add it to your reservation. Additionally, we encourage you to reach out to us when you arrive in Charleston, as we may be able to provide you with more information about the check-in availability of the property.
At the end of the day, our top priority is to make sure that you have a comfortable and stress-free stay with us. So don't hesitate to let us know if there's anything we can do to make your trip more enjoyable. We look forward to hosting you soon!
Parking
With the parking permit, street parking is totally free. Once you arrive, the parking permit will be found on the kitchen table. Just place the guest permit on you car dashboard! Please not though, these permits cost money to replace if they get lost. Therefore, the fee for losing the parking permit is $75.
What's Included in the Rental
We will provide a bunch of starter amenities and supplies to hold you over for at least the first part of your trip. When you arrive, we'll have shampoo and conditioner in each bathroom. We'll also have a box of k-cups, sugar, and creamer available for your use.
Cancellation Policy
Our cancellation policy for this property with Airbnb is as follows. You will get a full refund up to five days prior to arrival. If you cancel after that you'll be charged full price for each night that you do stay and 50% for all unspent nights. On Booking.com, you will be refunded the full amount if you cancel at least 7 days before you stay, and 50% for all unspent nights. On VRBO if you cancel at least 30 days before arrival you'll get a full refund, and if not you will be obligated to pay 50% for all unspent nights.
Cleaning Fee
We take pride in our commitment to paying our cleaning staff a fair wage and therefore do not adjust our cleaning fee. Rest assured that we do not make any profit from this fee, as our top priority is ensuring the comfort and cleanliness of our guests during their stay.
Pricing Discounts:
Our pricing system is based on a dynamic pricing tool called Beyond Pricing, which allows us to adjust prices daily based on market demand. As a result, weekends tend to be more expensive. With demand skyrocketing over the past year, we recommend booking as soon as possible to ensure the best possible pricing. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer discounts or adjustments to our prices at this time.
Summer Equipment
At our rental property, we want to make sure that your vacation is not only comfortable but also packed with fun and exciting activities. That's why we offer a wide variety of beach equipment that will keep you entertained for hours! From classic games like bocce, cornhole, and horseshoes to outdoor ping pong tables and comfortable chairs, we've got you covered. And if you're looking to spend a day on the water, we also offer boat rentals! But that's not all, we also provide umbrellas, cargo wagons, body boards, and skim boards so you can make the most of your beach experience. So pack light and leave the beach gear to us!

It's important to note that our standard check-in time is 2 PM and check-out time is 12 PM.
