The knowledge base feature in BusinessGPT allows you to create, organize, and share collections of documents as thematic knowledge bases. Knowledge bases serve as repositories for topic-specific content that can be analyzed, searched, or shared within a team.

What is a Knowledge Base?

Knowledge bases in BusinessGPT are organized collections of documents such as Word, PDF, or PowerPoint files that form a topic-based knowledge foundation.
