THE SITUATION

Rapid developer community growth puts a burden on support

LlamaIndex, an open-source project that provides a central interface to connect you LLM's with external data experienced explosive growth in its community, attracting more than 15,000 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 powered chatbot trained on LlamaIndex knowledge sources

Knowledge Sources

The kapa.ai worked with the Llama Index team to identify relevant knowledge sources to feed into a chatbot including +200 docs files.

Deployment Method

The chatbot was then deployed in the LlamaIndex Discord server in the #ask-kapa-gpt-index channel. Here it, over the course of four weeks, grew over 400% in the LlamaIndex Discord and went from answering around 90 questions a week to more than 400 questions a week as more and more community users became aware of the kapa.ai chatbot.

Try kapa.ai in the #ask-kapa-gpt-index channel on the LlamaIndex Discord.
