How Inkeep works

Built to know your product. Not the internet.

Inkeep answers only from your documentation and history, so every response reflects your product accurately, not generic AI guessing. It routes the questions it cannot answer with confidence rather than making something up.

Knowledge ingestion

Every source your team relies on, indexed and always fresh

Inkeep connects to your documentation, codebase, past tickets and wikis. It re-indexes automatically when content changes so your agent never gives an outdated answer.

Documentation sites

Point Inkeep at any docs URL. It crawls, parses and chunks content into a searchable index that stays synchronized with your publishing pipeline.

GitHub repositories

READMEs, inline comments, example files and changelogs all contain answers your docs do not. Inkeep indexes your codebase as a first-class knowledge source.

Past support tickets

Resolved Zendesk and Intercom tickets are a dense record of how your team explains things. Inkeep learns from your team's voice, not just the official docs.

How the agent reasons

Not keyword search. Contextual understanding with source citations.

01

Semantic retrieval across all sources

Questions are matched against your indexed content using both keyword and semantic similarity. Inkeep finds relevant passages even when the developer's phrasing does not match the docs exactly.

02

Every answer cites its source

Developers click through to the exact doc page or code file that backs the answer. Trust is built on verifiability, not on asking developers to take the agent's word for it.

03

Inkeep escalates when it is not confident

When confidence falls below threshold, Inkeep routes to your team rather than guessing. We designed it to be honest about what it does not know. An agent that says "I will get a human" is more useful than one that invents an answer.

Flexible deployment

Deploy where your developers already ask questions

Slack

Add Inkeep to any Slack channel. It responds in thread so conversations stay clean.

Discord

Deploy to your community server. Handles high-volume question channels without bot spam.

Web widget

Embed a chat widget on your docs site. Answers appear inline without leaving the page.

REST API

Build custom integrations with full control. Available on Team and Scale plans.

# Ask a question via the Inkeep API curl -X POST https://api.getinkeep.com/v1/query \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $INKEEP_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "question": "How do I rotate my API key?", "project_id": "proj_abc123" }' # Response { "answer": "To rotate your API key, go to Settings > API Keys...", "sources": [{ "url": "/docs/auth/api-keys#rotation" }], "confidence": 0.94 }
