What is an internal knowledge base in Helpable?
An internal knowledge base in Helpable is a set of articles only people in your workspace can read: how you work, policies, answers to common questions. You organize it in categories and pages under pages, and every change is kept in the version history.
Can employees search procedures and training too?
Yes. Helpable has one search across knowledge base articles, procedures and training, so employees don't need to know where something is stored.
How do I get existing documents into Helpable?
Helpable lets you upload documents such as PDF, Word, TXT, Markdown or CSV files. Helpable makes them searchable right away and suggests article drafts you review and approve. The AI writer also drafts a single article from a file or a link.
How does Helpable keep knowledge up to date?
Helpable gives every procedure an owner, a review interval and a next review date. When you publish a new version you add a short change summary and can ask the people involved to confirm they have read it.
Can we also share answers with customers?
Yes. Besides the internal knowledge base, Helpable can publish a public help center for customers, with its own categories, branding and search.
Does Helpable answer employee questions with AI?
Yes. Helpable answers employee questions in plain words from your own articles, procedures and uploaded documents, with a link to the exact source. When the answer isn't in your knowledge, it says so, and the question shows up for managers as an unanswered question to write down.
What does Helpable cost?
Helpable starts at $29 per month for Business, with 3 team members, an internal knowledge base, a public help center, procedures and read confirmations. Business Plus costs $89 per month and adds 5 team members and assigned training, and Business Max costs $179 per month and adds automatic assignment. Yearly billing costs about a fifth less.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Helpable has a free trial of 14 days on Business Plus with no credit card needed, so you can add your first articles and procedures before you choose a plan.
Where is our data stored?
Helpable stores your data in the EU. Your internal knowledge base, procedures and training are only visible to the people you invite to your workspace.
How is Helpable different from a shared drive or a wiki?
Helpable puts articles, procedures and training in one place with one search. Each procedure has an owner and a review date, and you can ask people to confirm they have read a new version, which a shared drive or a simple wiki does not do.
