Today, let's learn how to get the best from Klu. Think of Klu like a search engine for your own data. It works a lot like Google. When you search on Google, Google uses keywords to find the right web pages. Klu does the search similar but with your own information. Klu finds these keywords in your apps and gives you fast and accurate answers. It's a simple way to search and get the information you need.

Keyword Searches vs. Questions in Klu

There is a significant difference in the way Klu processes a keyword search versus a question-based search. When you use a keyword for searching, Klu acts like a navigator, directing you to the exact source where the information is located. For example, if you search for a keyword like 'budget report,' Klu will provide links to documents, emails, or other relevant sources where this term is mentioned. This approach is particularly useful when you want to explore all the instances or contexts where the keyword is used.

On the other hand, when you ask Klu a question, you're engaging with a more sophisticated level of search. Instead of just guiding you to the sources, Klu attempts to extract and present the answer directly. For instance, if you ask, 'What is the total amount in the latest budget report?', Klu processes this question to provide a specific answer, such as a figure or a concise summary, extracted from the relevant results. This method is incredibly efficient when you need quick answers without the need to sift through entire documents.

Searching with Keywords

Here, Klu pulls information about a keyword from various relevant sources. First result - A Slack message asking about OpenAI's inovice. Second result: An email concerning the same topic.

Search by asking a question

When asking Klu a question, we want you to feel comfortable. We don't want you to worry about where the information is stored; we just need the right keyword and a question mark at the end.

Let's continue with the same example: the OpenAI invoice. But now, let's ask a question.

And this is the result:

Here is another example with a Notion source. We're asking a question using the right keywords; in this case, 'help center' and 'improvements.' These are the right keywords because the Notion page title and content where this information is stored actually contain both of these keywords. So, we come back to the concept of searching on Google. The right keywords will be matched with the right content, and it will provide you with the information you need to continue your work.
