  • PDF, Word and TXT

    You upload many files at once.

  • Clear message when there's a problem

    If a file doesn't fit, SmartChat tells you exactly why and what you can do.

  • Only admins can upload

    Employees don't see the card. They work in the inbox.

Replies come from your knowledge.

SmartChat AI replies with learned knowledge from your documents. If it has no source, it hands the question over to you.

  • Reply with a source

    SmartChat AI replies with the knowledge it has learned from your website and your documents.

  • Sensitive matters stay with your team

    SmartChat AI doesn't reply to medical and legal questions. The question stays in the inbox with your team.

  • In every language

    If a contact writes in English, SmartChat AI replies in English, with the same information from your file.

Unanswered questions are collected for you.

If SmartChat AI couldn't answer something, the question appears under AI questions in your Knowledge & documents card. You write the answer once, and from then on SmartChat AI knows it.

AI questions at Kanzlei Schäfer in SmartChat: four unanswered questions, the first with an answer entered
  • Same questions together

    If several contacts ask the same thing, the question appears only once, with the number of times it came up.

  • Without name and number

    SmartChat only remembers the text of the question, never who asked it.

  • Cleans up automatically

    If nobody asks about it for a while, the question disappears from the list automatically.

New prices or times? The old version disappears.

If prices or times change, you simply upload the new file. SmartChat makes sure there are never two versions side by side.

  1. 1

    You upload the new version

    Give the file the same name as the old one, so here again "Sprechzeiten.pdf".

  2. 2

    SmartChat asks once

    If the name already exists, SmartChat asks whether the old version should be replaced. One click on Replace is enough.

  3. 3

    The old version is gone

    Only once SmartChat has analyzed the new file does it remove the old one. If something goes wrong, your existing knowledge stays in place.

    Your contact gets the new times

    From the very next question, SmartChat AI only mentions what's in the new opening hours.

Frequently asked questions about Knowledge & documents.

Which files can I upload to my knowledge?

You upload PDF, Word and TXT. You drag several files at once into the Knowledge & documents card.

What does uploading documents cost?

Uploading costs no credits. SmartChat AI uses credits when it replies: Free has 500 one-time, Starter 3,000, Basic 6,000 and Pro 12,000 per month. The plans cost 0 €, 299 €, 499 € and 999 € per month, all prices excl. VAT.

Does Meta charge anything for replies from my knowledge?

Meta bills you directly for WhatsApp message fees, through the payment method in your Meta account. With SmartChat, you pay your plan on top of that. What Meta charges is listed in the Trust Center under Meta fees.

Can I upload a photo or a scanned notice?

No, SmartChat AI only analyzes text from PDF, Word and TXT. For a scan without text, SmartChat tells you that no text was found. In that case, write the notice into a Word document and upload that.

What happens if I upload a new version of my price list?

If the file has the same name, SmartChat asks whether the old version should be replaced. After you click Replace, SmartChat AI only uses the new one. If you upload exactly the same file again, SmartChat tells you that nothing has changed.

What happens if I delete a document?

SmartChat AI forgets what it learned from that document. From then on, it no longer gives any information from it.

Can SmartChat AI quote prices that aren't in my price list?

No. SmartChat AI replies with the knowledge it has learned from your documents. If it has no source, it hands the question over to you.

What are the AI’s questions?

These are questions from your contacts that SmartChat AI couldn't answer. They appear in the Knowledge & documents card, each with how often they were asked. If you save an answer, SmartChat uses it right away.

Can I see who asked the AI's questions?

No, SmartChat only stores the text of the question there, no name and no number. SmartChat groups similar questions together, and a question that nobody has asked for a while disappears automatically.

Who on my team can upload documents?

An admin uploads documents. Employees don't see the Knowledge & documents card, because they work in the inbox. More about roles: Team.

Do I need documents if everything is on my website?

SmartChat AI has already analyzed your website during onboarding. Documents are worth adding for everything that's missing there: a property management company might upload its house rules (WhatsApp marketing for property management companies), a vet practice its opening hours (WhatsApp marketing for vets) and a law firm the materials for its info evening (WhatsApp marketing for law firms).

In which languages does SmartChat AI reply with my knowledge?

In every language your contact writes in. You only upload your document once for that.

Does a contact still get replies from my knowledge after STOP?

No. If a contact writes STOP, they are unsubscribed, and SmartChat AI sends them no more replies.

Your knowledge for WhatsApp.

Enter your website: in 60 seconds your WhatsApp marketing system is ready, and SmartChat AI has already analyzed your business. Afterwards, you add price lists, info sheets and other documents under Knowledge & Documents.
