We’re developing a new AI-powered search and chatbot tool, Autopilot, and we’re looking for customers to join us in a pilot program. If you’re interested in testing cutting-edge technology and influencing its development, we’d love to hear from you.

What we’re building
Autopilot will serve as an AI-powered CSM that provides comprehensive support by connecting to all available knowledge sources within your organization. This includes community interactions, knowledge bases, and other internal systems, ensuring that your customers receive accurate and timely answers. Our vision is to make the community and chatbot the central hub where your customers can go for everything related to support and customer success.


Preview in action
To give you an idea of what Autopilot will be capable of, we’re designing a user interface that will integrate seamlessly into your community, product, and support channels, offering AI-generated answers and suggestions that can adapt to the needs of your customers. You can also check out an early version in action at Gong Visioneers (try searching), where AI-generated answers are already being utilized.

We’re looking for customers who:

  • Are focused on improving support through AI.
  • Plan to use a chatbot to provide overall support and connect it to all sources that can help provide answers and support.
  • Intend to make the community and chatbot the central hub where customers go for everything related to support and customer success.
  • Are willing to invest time in testing, promoting the chatbot to customers, and providing feedback.

If you’re interested and fit the above description, please comment or like this post and we will reach out to understand if you are a good fit.We’re aiming to work with about 10 customers who are excited to help us bring this innovative tool to life.

We are just about to announce that our Community is the “Search Hub” for all of our product collateral. So YES! We’d love to be involved in this.

We’re interested. We’ve got a bit of situation here at Calendly where Ada is pulling in a lot, but not Community and could definitely do better on Help Center. It’s entirely too focused on moving people from chat to 1:1 support tickets and I’d like to explore a more self-serve help approach.

Edited to add: We don’t currently run any sort of chat or third-party AI add-ons on Community, so bit of a clean slate over here.

Hi@Yoeri, are there still spots available in the pilot program? I think there may be interest at my company, but I wanted to check before I asked on my side. Thank you!

Hi @BiancaTaylorSC as we are still in the discovery and validation stage I’m happy to set us up 30-minutes to discuss our plans. I’ll reach out to you via email for more details :) 


Ian Ferguson

Hi @Yoeri 

Would this (or could this) look at other sources feeding into federated search (Eg. Academy on Skilljar, or Help Center on Zendesk)

Either way - yes would like to be apart of this testing!

Thank you

Yes @Ian Ferguson the idea and vision of the Autopilot is to use all available content that you feed into it. So not only content inside your Gainsight product(s), but also external content from your knowledge base, academy, documentation, blog etc.

Hey @Yoeri our org would definitely be interested in this. If you’re still in discovery, we’d love to be involved. We’ve already had discussions with our CSM around this exact approach to our support.

Hello everyone! This thread has been silent for a while, so it's time for an update. We’re working on the first concepts of the Autopilot experience and we would love to hear your thoughts on two potential directions we are exploring.

Firstly, we want to understand which experience works best for you. Should Autopilot be a full-page chat experience or a floating assistant? Your feedback will help us refine the experience to better meet your needs.

Full-page Experience

  • AI chat is housed on a dedicated page.
  • Provides a distraction-free environment for focused conversations.
  • Users always have ample space for longer chat interactions.
Full-page experience

Floating Assistant

  • AI chat hovers over the page and is always available in the bottom-right corner.
  • Allows users to chat while browsing the Community.
  • Users can expand the chat window when they need more space.
Floating Assistant - default view
Floating Assistant - expanded view​​​​

Which experience do you prefer? Would you rather have a dedicated space for chatting, or do you find an always-available floating assistant more convenient? Your input will help us build an AI assistant that seamlessly fits into your workflow.

Let us know your thoughts by leaving a comment. Thanks for helping us shape the future of Autopilot!

Well, I guess it’s time for the Super User invasion!

For me, I kinda prefer the floating option so that it’s easy to access basically everywhere. Given that I’m constantly bouncing all over the OVO Forum and routinely have a bazillion tabs open, I’d find it easier to have the chat window float rather than be a full-page so that I’ve got it right where I need it - ready next to the post editor! :)

But I guess you could do a hybrid approach and allow it to expand to a full-page for if I want to throw it up in a dedicated tab and just have it there on its own screen (I run a triple-screen setup) for those who prefer that option.

Thanks for your insights ​@Blastoise186 - very useful. A hybrid approach is definitely something to consider!

Hello everyone

I agree with ​@Blastoise186. Floating seems more convenient especially for the single screen setup and people are having the tendency to have bazillion tabs open :) I would defiantly consider hybrid approach.

Thank you.
