Your help center, inside the chat.
Shoppers search and read your help articles without leaving the page. When they ask instead, Aide answers from the same articles and shows them as sources. · By Ziyad BasheerShort answer
Aide Chat has a Help space where shoppers search your help articles, browse them by collection and read them inside the chat panel, each with its last-updated date and a helpful rating. Aide's chat answers come from the same articles and list them as sources the shopper can tap.- What shoppers see
- A Help tab with search, collections and articles that open in the panel.
- Which articles
- Published ones, written in Aide or imported. Website pages inform answers only.
- Feedback
- Helpful or not, one rating per visitor. Not helpful offers to ask Aide.
- Sources
- One source shows as a pill; several fold into one, like "Shipping times +2".
- Setup
- On by default. Switch chat off for a help-only widget.
- AI replies
- Reading articles uses none.
The chat starts where the article stops.
Every article ends with "Was this helpful?". A no offers to ask Aide with that article as context.
Search and chat read the same articles, so a shopper who reads the shipping page and one who asks about shipping get the same policy. Fix one article and both are right.
