Setting up Knowledge Hub

For detailed instructions refer to Help Article: Setting up Knowledge Hub.

Just like a new employee, your newly appointed AI Chatbot requires training. You'll also need to keep it updated with any changes related to your property.

Log in to the Dashboard and navigate to the Knowledge Hub, where you'll find around 250 common questions that guests frequently ask at hotels.

For each knowledge item, you can add one or more text responses, along with images or links.

If you have information that doesn't fit any of the existing knowledge items, you can include it in the "Add Your Own" section.

After making your changes, click the Publish GPT button. It takes about 10 minutes for the AI Chatbot to be updated with new or revised information. Once the AI training is complete, you will receive a notification via email.

Ensure you provide the full context in the knowledge hub messages:

Wrong: Opening hours are 11 am to 11 pm

Right: Restaurant opening hours are 11 am to 11 pm

Add all your room types to the About Rooms section. This information will be used to display the available room options to users.


Create a Web Widget for Property Website

After the AI is trained with your property information, you can set up a Web Widget for your website. To do this, you'll need to connect the following three components:

  1. Web Widget for Property Website: This is the main widget that gets embedded directly into your property's webpage.

  2. Web Widget for Group Website: This is an optional widget specifically designed for a group website with multiple properties. This widget includes features like switching the AI Chatbot based on the specific property the customer is viewing.

  3. AI Chatbot for Web Widget: This is a sub-component that integrates the AI Chatbot into the Web Widget, enabling users to interact with the chatbot seamlessly through the widget.

Customizing Web Widget for Website

The Web Widget displays common inquiries and workflows upfront (Web Widget Menus), and gives customers the option to start a chat with the AI Chatbot for a seamless experience.

Web Widget Appearance & Behaviour

Create a Web Widget connection and choose the following:

  1. Avatar Image and Name

  2. The appearance of the web widget that will show on your website

  3. Add nudges so that your digital assistant can greet and engage your website visitors.

  4. Get a link to preview your Digital Assistant in action and test it before going live.

  5. Code snippet to add to your website, and your Digital Assistant is ready to say Hi! to your website visitors

Web Widget Menus

Every aspect of Web Widget Menus is in your control. You can create, modify, and delete items from Virtual Front Desk -> Web Widget Menus.

Categories can be renamed and ordered from the Edit Category option, and each item can be dragged to be positioned at the desired place.


Custom Forms and Workflows

The Myma.ai platform includes a set of pre-built forms commonly used in hotels, which you can easily customize. You can edit field names, add new fields, and adjust the UI to fit your needs. These forms are presented to customers when specific information needs to be collected, and upon submission, a ticket is automatically created to trigger a workflow.

Examples of the default forms include:

  • Lost & Found

  • Cancel or Change Reservation

  • Amenities Booking Requests

  • Group Booking Inquiry

  • Meeting & Events Inquiry

  • Wedding Inquiry

These ready-to-use forms help streamline the process of capturing customer requests and initiating the necessary follow-up actions.

Get in touch with the Myma.ai team to create or modify forms.


Add AI Chatbot to Web Widget

Feel like meeting your AI Chabot and asking some questions?

You are now one step closer to providing the best conversational experience to customers interested in booking with you 🏄.

Create an AI Chatbot Connection and choose the following:

  1. The appearance of the chat window that will show on your website

  2. Live Chat options and timings


Connect Social Channels

Besides the website, you can connect your AI Chatbot to respond to messages coming from the following channels:

  • Facebook Messenger

  • Google Messages (Discontinued by Google)

  • WhatsApp

  • Instagram
