THE SITUATION

Rapid developer community growth puts a burden on support

Langchain, an open-source project that helps developers build Large language models (LLMs), experienced explosive growth in its community community, attracting almost 20,000 Github stars within a few months.

However, the surge in users also led to an overwhelming number of support questions, which puts a larger support burden on the core engineering team.

THE SOLUTION

An LLM powered chatbot trained on Langchain knowledge sources

Knowledge Sources

The kapa.ai worked with the Langchain team to identify relevant knowledge sources to feed into a chatbot including +500 docs files covering Conceptual Guides, Python docs, and JS docs, and +400 open GitHub issues.

Deployment Method

The chatbot was then deployed in the Langchain Discord server in the #ask-kapa-langchain channel. Here it, over the course of four weeks, grew over 600% in Langchain's Discord and went from answering 175 questions to 1166 questions as more and more community users became aware of the kapa.ai chatbot.
