We're excited to share that we've just rolled out a new Forethought AI Agent on the Gainsight Community — and you're among the first to try it. 🎉

This is a significant evolution of our existing AI Answers feature. By integrating Forethought directly into our search experience, you'll get a richer, more conversational way to find answers across our community content and documentation.

💡 How it Works:

  • Conversational AI answers — Ask a question in natural language and get a structured, summarized response drawn from community discussions and product docs
  • Follow-up questions — Refine your query without starting over; the AI keeps context as you dig deeper
  • Clarification prompts — When your question is ambiguous, the AI will ask a clarifying question to give you a better answer

🔍 Try it out: Head to the search bar on the community homepage, type a question, and see it in action. We'd love your feedback — it's what helps us shape what comes next.


A note on the beta: This is a beta release, so you may notice some rough edges as we continue to polish the experience. If you spot a bug or have feedback, please drop a comment on this post — we're actively iterating.

Why we’ve added this feature: This is part of our broader Digital Customer Hub vision, bringing together community, education, and AI-powered support into one seamless customer experience.

Stay tuned: We'll be rolling this out more broadly later this quarter, and you'll see it featured at Pulse.

Thank you to ​@Graeme Rycyk and his team for their hand work!

@kcronin this looks great. Would it be possible to have the Search AI as it was before and the AI Agent separated as shown here or something similar?

 

For an example refer here.

Hi ​@gpedenzini please have at the example shared by ​@Mithila Jayalath above - this is a more elegant way of including the agent in our opinion. Would love to hear other opinions as well,
