Using GailGPT Effectively

View as Markdown

GailGPT is a powerful tool for your team, but like any assistant, you’ll get better results by using it effectively. Here are proven strategies to maximize your success with GailGPT.

Best Practices for Asking Questions

Be Specific and Clear

The more specific your question, the better GailGPT’s response will be.

Provide Context

GailGPT works best when it understands the context of your question.

This gives GailGPT multiple pieces of information:

  • It’s about commercial insurance
  • Renewal scenario
  • Fleet of 5 vehicles
  • Interest in bundling

Ask Follow-Up Questions

GailGPT maintains conversation context, so you can naturally ask follow-up questions.

Organizing Your Knowledge Base

The quality of GailGPT’s responses depends on the quality of your knowledge base. Here’s how to keep it organized:

Structure Your Documents

By Topic
  • Products & Services
  • Policies & Procedures
  • FAQ
  • Pricing
By Department
  • Sales
  • Customer Service
  • Claims
  • Underwriting
By Customer Type
  • New Customers
  • Existing Customers
  • Commercial Clients
  • Personal Lines
By Process
  • Onboarding
  • Renewals
  • Claims Process
  • Cancellations

Keep Information Current

Schedule regular reviews: Set a monthly reminder to review and update your knowledge base documents. Outdated information leads to incorrect responses.

1

Review GailGPT conversations to spot where information might be stale or incorrect.

2
