About

AskSirMoodle is a AI bot developed to support Clarkson Faculty and Students in their use of Moodle as their learning management system. AskSirMoodle is not a study support or aid for academic purposes. 

AskSirMoodle uses a platform called DocsBot AI, which is a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) platform designed to create custom AI chatbots, Q&A widgets, and internal assistants trained directly on a company’s proprietary documentation. It allows Clarkson to transform source documentation into a dynamic conversational agent without writing code.

Core Functionality

  • Data Ingestion: Trains on over 37 source types, including website URLs, PDFs, Notion, GitHub, WordPress, Google Docs, and Salesforce content.
  • Hybrid Search & LLMs: Combines semantic vector search (powered by Weaviate) with models like GPT-4o to retrieve relevant context and provide precise, grounded answers.
  • Integrations: Embeds directly onto websites via customizable chat widgets.
  • Multilingual & 24/7: Provides instant answers in over 40 languages around the clock.

Knowledge sources provide the information the bot uses to answer questions. These may include:

  • Help-center articles
  • Website pages
  • PDFs and other documents
  • Product documentation
  • Frequently asked questions
  • Internal reference materials
