What is this?
An AI FAQ bot setup service turns repeated customer questions into a controlled assistant with a safe human hand-off. Pick one niche, identify the questions that repeat and define exactly what the assistant may answer — and what must always go to a person. Build a safe knowledge base and demo, test incorrect and unknown questions, add a fallback and close your first paid pilot.
