The post 2023 in Review: A Year of Transformation to AI appeared first on Document360.

]]>
When 2023 began, we aimed to give the product a fresh look to boost customer experience. But somewhere along the journey, we realized that we had to rebuild the product from the ground up to give our customers a truly transformative user experience. And that’s exactly what we did.

After a year of sheer determination, research, and creativity, we reinvented the product and launched Document360 2.0 in November. One of our focus areas was reducing the number of clicks authors had to go through to access basic functions like single sign-on, setting up review reminders, and publishing articles. Thus, we centered our design principle on just “simplifying” every task on the platform.

With the gradual emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI), we also looked to infuse our product with AI-powered features that tech writers and knowledge base users could benefit from.  Our generative AI solution—Eddy, was a brainchild of that line of thinking. Eddy now provides an elegant and efficient way to interact with your knowledge base. Eddy provides accurate answers to users’ questions and is equipped with robust security features, ensuring it only combs within the knowledge base for answers. Our customers are deriving value from every feature and enhancement we have introduced this year. Many of our customers have already begun trying out Eddy and seeing the difference it makes in their user patterns.

We also observed that API documentation had become compulsory for brands to unlock the power and potential of their product. This prompted us to integrate their API documentation and knowledge base into a single tool, which reduces duplication of multiple efforts, including branding and styling.

As our number of users at any point crossed 100K, 2023 saw the launch of Document360’s partner program. We have partnered with some globally renowned software resellers to increase our penetration within the market. 

Let’s look at the top highlights in terms of brand-new features, Generative AI capabilities, and improvements we made in 2023.

AI is an accelerating phenomenon from a technological perspective that inevitably arrived, and now it’s advancing much more rapidly. Innovation has been part of our culture; we’ve built it into the environment, so when people have ideas or opportunities to do things differently, we embrace that in Document360.

What have we offered?

Document360’s search capabilities have been a standout feature, allowing users to quickly find information despite extensive documentation. With the enhancements, these capabilities have reached a new level, offering an even more intuitive and powerful search experience. The search function was equipped with advanced algorithms and a user-friendly interface, ensuring users can quickly locate the exact information they need within the documentation. Now, we would like to take things one step further, powered by AI.

What necessitates a change?

The knowledge base contains hundreds of articles. For instance, a reader of a product manual is required to perform steps or instructions to configure the product. This leads to performing additional activities, especially while referring to multiple articles across categories. Eventually, this consumes time, creates confusion, and might end up providing a bad user experience while intending to perform respective tasks in the system. With these identified pain points of our readers, we are introducing AI to the search to provide more to increase efficiency, reduce time, and enhance readability.

Document360

How are we achieving it?

We are excited to introduce Eddy, our AI mascot, to the Document360 family. As an assistive search AI, Eddy plays an important role in enhancing the user experience. Our systems utilize advanced algorithms powered by OpenAI to understand user queries and provide respective answers with accurate information.

We have introduced the ‘AI Settings’ option in the knowledge base portal, which allows users to enable the “AI assistive search” function. The setup process is designed to be effective, requiring only a few minutes to complete. The mechanism involves creating an embedding of your content and storing it on the backend. This approach ensures that search can swiftly respond to the queries posted by readers on the knowledge base site. As the content grows, the information gets updated within the embedding, and responses are enhanced automatically for readers.

For example, to successfully integrate Google Analytics into Document360, users are required to follow a series of detailed instructions. This process is crucial to ensure that the integration is effortless and functional. It involves several steps, each needing careful attention to detail.

Once users initiate the integration process, they might need to read various articles or resources to confirm that every configuration setup is enabled. This step is essential to ensure that the integration not only aligns with the users’ specific needs but also functions optimally within the context of the knowledge base.

With the implementation of “Ask Eddy“, every piece of information is consolidated into a single view and a list of articles where the source of information is retrieved is displayed for readers to verify.

Ask Eddy

The feature is hugely beneficial for readers, as it allows them to easily verify the source articles from where information is retrieved and displayed along with prompt responses on the knowledge base site, ensuring transparency and credibility.

In addition, the system has a feedback mechanism where every response generated by Eddy has an option for users to provide feedback. This feedback not only acts as a measure of user satisfaction but plays a crucial role in the continuous improvement of the algorithm. Each piece of feedback contributes to the system’s learning process, enabling the algorithm to refine its search capabilities and response accuracy over time.

The process of learning and adaptation is of paramount importance in maintaining the effectiveness and relevance of Eddy. By regularly incorporating user feedback, the algorithm becomes aligned with the specific needs and preferences of users. This leads to a more personalized and efficient search experience, ensuring that the Eddy feature remains a valuable and dynamic tool.

What about our data privacy?

As we evolve further into the Artificial Intelligence space, all the information has to be protected with the best methods following appropriate industry practices. Our systems are designed to comply with the data protection regulations of OpenAI. We ensure that all user data is treated with the highest level of confidentiality and integrity.

With Eddy, Document360 makes a step forward in the journey to make information access seamless and intuitive for all users.

The post Introducing Postman Collection Support in Document360’s API Documentation appeared first on Document360.

]]>
In the obscure world of API development and documentation, simplicity, accuracy, and ease of use are not just preferences—they are necessities. Developers are akin to modern-day wizards, orchestrating a delicate dance between numerous tools and resources. Each plays a pivotal role in the enigmatic ballet of API testing, deployment, and maintenance. Amidst the technical symphony, the harmonious melody often sought is one of ease and intuitiveness.

The echo of the challenge often resonates in the corridors of code and documentation. It lies in navigating this intricate ecosystem efficiently, reducing the friction between understanding an API’s functionality and implementing it. Such a challenge is not to be underestimated, for in the nexus of comprehension and implementation lies the heart of innovation.

Imagine a scenario where developers, both seasoned and novice, aren’t hindered by complexity but empowered by accessibility. They have immediate access to a well-structured, interactive, and intuitive platform that not only demystifies an API’s functions but invites an immersive journey of discovery. This vision isn’t lodged in the annals of a futuristic aspiration but breathes life into the tangible, attainable now. It is a benchmark not of the future, but of today.

The Postman collection paradigm

Postman Collections have emerged as a lifesaver for developers. They offer an organized suite of API calls, painted with detailed descriptions, examples, and even tests, making API interaction an insightful experience. However, the real magic unfolds when these collections are seamlessly embedded within the API documentation—where the theory meets practice, where reading meets doing, and where learning meets execution.

As developers pore over API documentation, their fingers itch to get down to the nitty-gritty—to experiment, test, and witness the API in action. Every additional step or tool they need to toggle between extends the bridge between knowledge and implementation.

Document360 meets Postman collections

Recognizing this gap and the untapped potential for synergy, we at Document360 are excited to unveil the integration of Postman Collections into our API documentation feature. This integration is a nod to the evolving needs of developers—a harmonious blend of detailed documentation and real-time API interaction.

In the forthcoming sections, we’ll unveil the nuances of this integration, the enhanced user experience, and the simplified pathways to API mastery, propelling your development journeys to unprecedented heights.

The post Streamlining Content Journey: Effortless Title Recommendations and Summaries appeared first on Document360.

]]>
We all know the surge of Artificial Intelligence since the 2010s and its impact in aiding people – ranging from our daily usage devices to predicting the natural calamity of the 2050s. Open AI is a research organization focusing on promoting friendly and beneficial AI. They develop various programming models and release various AI-related projects and tools. One such notable achievement is the advanced language model ChatGPT – a generative pre-trained transformer, simply put – a model that is trained to provide contextually relevant responses when users prompt for answers.

We at Document360 thought through how such a massive advancement can be leveraged for our users to make their life easy while documenting. We figured out two areas where our users can leverage the features – Article Title Recommender and Article Summarizer.

Article Title Recommender

Content structuring is a great deal for the contributors; aligning them in contextual flow takes time and effort. However, while the content gets updated regularly there is a strong chance that the article title provided in the first place may be irrelevant down the timeline. 90% of the contributors don’t want to change the article title since it has been registered with their readers’ community, but there is a conceptual change within the updated content.

Document360 is now infused with powerful AI tools from ChatGPT, which suggests the new article title whenever the users feel the time to modify it to align with the concepts they are referring to in the contents. We aesthetically designed it to make it simpler, so that it wouldn’t allow them to interrupt their daily workflows within an article. Keep it simple – is the principle we try to adhere to, and as the phrase goes by, while the contributors click on the Article Title – the system provides an option to receive title suggestions from AI systems. This, in turn, suggests title options that are closely associated with content provided by the contributor. And we do value your feedback, so as to improvise our suggestions.

Article Title Recommender Display

Article Title Recommender Suggest

By maintaining a strong association between the suggested titles and the content, users can quickly grasp the main topic or idea being conveyed, leading to increased interest and interaction.

Note: For the AI models to generate accurate title suggestions, it is recommended that an article consists of a minimum of 100 words. This ensures that the models have sufficient content to analyze and derive meaningful suggestions. By meeting this minimum word threshold, users can obtain more reliable and relevant title options for their articles from the AI models.

Article Summarizer

Yes, from the contributor’s perspective, we have now been empowered with an AI feature, but we do have a solution for the content consumers, who are the readers of the articles. Often readers end up reading articles that end up containing irrelevant information. Typically, an article comprises approximately 800-1000 words, which translates to an estimated reading time of 5-7 minutes. This duration holds significant value for readers, ensuring that the content is concise and easily digestible without overwhelming them with an excessive amount of information.

To facilitate readers in finding relevant content efficiently, we have implemented the Article Summarizer feature. This feature offers a concise summary of the entire content in just a few words. By utilizing this summary, readers can make quick decisions regarding whether the forthcoming content aligns with their intended interests and objectives. If the content doesn’t match their requirements, they have the option to explore other articles within the documentation for the desired information.

This feature can be enabled by the users at the portal level, so the summary information is displayed at the knowledgebase site for the readers. In Settings  -> Knowledge base Site -> Article Settings & SEO, enable the option “Show AI Article Summarizer”. 

Article Summarizer

At the knowledge base site, readers now can access a summary of the entire article, enabling them to quickly grasp the key points without investing significant time. This streamlined approach allows them to make informed decisions on whether to explore the article further or proceed to other relevant content with minimal time investment.

Protect your knowledge base from unauthorized access with X-Frame options.

As the internet evolves, the risk of unauthorized access to your website’s content is increasingly becoming a concern. One of the potential avenues for attackers is through embedding your website content, such as a Knowledge base, in an iframe on a malicious website.

xframe

To address this issue, X-Frame Options is a security feature that provides an additional layer of protection for your Knowledge base. When enabled, X-Frame Options prevents your website’s content from being displayed in an iframe on another website. This way, even if an attacker manages to embed your Knowledge base in a malicious website, the content will not be visible to the attacker’s users.

By preventing unauthorized access to your Knowledge base, X-Frame Options protects your customers’ sensitive data and ensures that your website is secure.

Boost your Knowledge base security with a content security policy (CSP)

In today’s digital landscape, security is more important than ever. That’s why we’re excited to announce the release of the Content Security Policy (CSP) for Document360. With CSP, you can easily manage and prevent external CSS, scripts, and frames from being embedded in your Knowledge Base, ensuring that only authorized content is displayed to your users.

CSP works by specifying the sources of content that are allowed to be loaded on your website. This allows you to prevent malicious content from being loaded, reducing the risk of cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and other security vulnerabilities.

csp

Overall, CSP is a powerful tool that can help you take your Knowledge Base security to the next level. With its easy-to-use interface and customizable settings, you can rest assured that your content is safe and secure from potential threats.

Many more enhancements and improvements

Single Sign-On – The split Enterprise SSO module provides more flexibility in configuration, which makes it easier for customers to configure SAML, OpenID, and JWT at the same time. This feature streamlines the login process and enhances security.
