What Is the Internal Knowledge Assistant?

The Internal Knowledge Assistant helps you find accurate information in your company’s internal documents. It acts as a centralized knowledge source, allowing you to search, analyze, and compare company files quickly and reliably. Unlike the General Assistant, this assistant does not use public internet information. It works only with documents that belong to your organization.
