Show HN: HelpHub – GPT chatbot for any site

#1
Hi HN,

I’m the founder of a SaaS platform called CommandBar (YC S20). We’ve been mucking around with AI-related side quests for a while, but recently got excited enough about one to test it with some customers. Results were surprisingly good so we decided to launch it.

HelpHub is AI chat + semantic search for any website or web app.

You can add source content in 3 ways: -Crawling any public site via a URL (e.g. your marketing site or blog) -Syncing with a CMS (like Zendesk or Intercom) -Add content manually

The chatbot is then “trained” on that content and will answer question’s based on that content only, not referencing directly the knowledge.

The output is an embeddable widget the contains two things: the chatbot interface for user’s to ask questions, and a search interface for users to search through the content the bot is trained on directly (as well as view source content).

You can play around with a demo on some popular sites here: https://helphub.commandbar.com

Some features we added that make it better IMO than just chat: -Suggested questions (based on the page the user is on and their chat history) -Suggested follow-up questions in a chat response -Ask a question about a specific doc -Recommend content based on who the user is and where they are

Would love to hear feedback (not lost on me that there are other chatgpt-for-your-site products and we are probably missing a ton of functionality from there) and can also share details about how we built this. It’s not rocket science but does feel magic :)

I'm all for "charge more", but these two restriction on a $249 a month plan seem nuts:

- 20 Commands

- “Powered By” Branding

After paying over $100 a month, it's unusual to keep your branding and a limit of 20 commands seems to defeat the purpose of the product.

Congrats on the launch!

How do you approach handling sensitive data that might come from a CMS in an AI context?

Both: 1. Sensitive data being surfaced accidentally during regular conversation and 2. Malicious actors using prompt injection or similar techniques?

$20m in funding, so lets say a $100m post-money valuation – probably need at least 10k sites running this at $250/mo for that valuation to stack up.

That pricing is for our whole product, which includes more than just Helphub.

For HH only we have a free tier with 2k messages / mo and a $50 tier for 10k messages a month.

I've wanted a product like this since I first encountered chatGPT.

How do you handle curation? Meaning... if the model picks up some out of date info or misinterprets it, and a human admin notices that and wants to mark something as out of date or wrong, can they? I see this as similar to the way I can correct ChatGPT over the course of a chat session, and it will remember the corrections.
