Internal Knowledge

Give your team a knowledge agent that answers questions from your internal docs - directly in Slack. Instead of searching through Confluence, Notion, or Google Drive, team members @mention the agent and get sourced answers in-thread.

How it differs from Helpdesk:

	Helpdesk Agent	Internal Knowledge Agent
Audience	External customers	Internal team members
Channel	Zendesk, Freshdesk, email, website chat	Slack, Teams
Core action	Resolve support tickets	Answer questions from internal docs and sources, or public knowledge.
Trigger	New ticket, @mention in helpdesk	@eesel mention in Slack or Teams
Output	Ticket replies, tags, internal notes	Sourced answers in Slack threads

Ideal for teams with:

• Large internal knowledge bases that are hard to navigate

• Frequent onboarding of new hires

• Support teams doing policy lookups

• Repetitive internal questions across departments (IT, HR, ops)

Quick Start

1

Create your agent and teach it your internal knowledge

We recommend having a separate agent that uses your internal knowledge. Click the top left agent dropdown to create a new agent. Add your internal wiki knowledge (like Confluence, Notion, Drive, or files) by clicking integrations and following the prompts.

2

Connect to Slack

Connect your Slack workspace to your eesel agent's dashboard. Click integrations > Slack and follow the prompts. This will enable your team to @ mention eesel in Slack and the agent will respond in the thread. Add any specific channels you want to add the agent to.

3

Brief them on the job, and test

Customize Instructions — tone, structure of responses, what sources to prioritise, what topics to cover, what to escalate, how to handle questions outside its knowledge. Test in the sidebar or in Slack directly.

What It Can Do

Core capabilities

• Answer questions from connected knowledge sources

• Cite sources with links to original documents

• Respond in Slack threads (keeps channels clean)

• Send proactive messages to channels

• Multi-source search (pulls from Confluence + Notion + Google Drive in a single answer)

Example use cases

• New hire onboarding — "What's our PTO policy?" / "How do I set up VPN?"

• Cross-team knowledge sharing — "What's the refund policy for orders under $50?"

• Sales enablement — "What integrations do we support?" / "Do we have a SOC 2 cert?"

• IT support — "How do I reset my email password?" / "What's the Zoom login?"

How answers work

1. Team member @mentions the agent with a question

2. Agent searches all connected knowledge sources

3. Response appears in the Slack thread with source citations

4. If the agent can't find an answer, it says so (no hallucination)
