Meet HelpSite's New AI Features

HelpSite just launched AI Chatbot, MCP Server, and Custom Themes. Here's what each feature does and how to get started today.

Meet HelpSite's New AI Features

We've just launched three powerful features that make your knowledge base smarter, more connected, and more yours.

Your customers can now chat with your knowledge base. Your AI tools can read your docs. And your help center looks more like your brand.

What's Just Launched

1. AI Chatbot (Available on Plus Plan)

You can now give your customers instant answers directly from your knowledge base through the new AI Chatbot.

The chatbot searches your knowledge base and returns results with sources in seconds — so customers find what they need without contacting your support team or opening a support ticket.

With AI Chatbot you can:

  • Answer customer questions instantly by searching your knowledge base
  • Cite sources so customers can dive deeper into full articles
  • Toggle the chatbot on/off anytime from your settings
  • Access chat history to see what questions customers ask

This makes it easier to reduce support burden and turn your knowledge base into a growth lever.

2. MCP (Model Context Protocol) — Gold and Plus Plan

Your team can now manage HelpSite directly from Claude and ChatGPT through the new MCP integration.

Use HelpSite's MCP Server to bring your help center into the AI tools your team already uses — so you can search, update, and draft documentation faster.

With MCP you can:

  • Search your entire knowledge base using natural language (find articles about billing, onboarding, setup, any topic)
  • Create draft articles and updates based on existing documentation
  • Update existing docs by finding outdated articles and preparing rewrites faster
  • Organize your knowledge base (review sites, categories, and structure without clicking through pages)
  • Ask your AI tool questions about your HelpSite content directly

This makes it easier for your team to work with support content, product docs, FAQs, policies, and internal knowledge without leaving your AI workflow.

3. Custom Themes — Gold and Plus Plan

Your help center is now fully customizable to match your brand through the new Themes feature.

Make your knowledge base truly yours, without having to code. With Themes, you can align every page with your brand, choose from pre-built designs, or customize colors, fonts, and layouts without any coding required.

With Themes you can:

  • Choose from pre-built, brand-ready layouts (Calm Minimal, Bold Modern, and Dark Terminal)
  • Customize any pre-built theme with your brand colors and fonts
  • Preview changes in real time before publishing
  • Make design updates instantly — no coding or engineering work required
