Apply to be a Beta user for Guru’s next generative AI feature, Answers!News

Hi Guru Community! As you’ve probably already seen in the Community and in our recent webinar, Guru is investing in exciting new AI features that we hope will help you achieve your knowledge management goals more efficiently than ever before. I’m excited to share more info on Guru’s next generative AI functionality: Answers. With this functionality, users ask a question and get back an easy-to-understand answer pulled from Guru Cards and Knowledge Syncs. Answers elevates Guru’s already great search experience by eliminating the traditional steps needed to get just the right answer back — and massively decreasing the time people spend seeking out information they need to do their jobs. The experience is like popular AI tools your team may already be using, but securely connected to your company’s trusted information. Users will even be able to see the sources used to generate an answer, so they can dig deeper and get more context if they need it. As if that wasn't exciting enough, futur

Get insights out of Slack and into Guru - Apply for the Private Beta today

Hey Guru Community! If your company uses Slack to communicate, there’s a lot of valuable information zipping through your channels on any given day. We know that it’s difficult to get a holistic view of what your teams are talking about and where they need more help, so we are building towards a future where all the most valuable information from Slack gets surfaced and captured in Guru. We’re building a new feature that will allow Guru to sift through Slack for you and help surface important insights. With this new feature, you’ll be able to identify trending topics in your busiest Slack channels, view the messages associated with those topics, and easily transfer the content from those messages directly to new or existing Guru cards, allowing you to unlock the most in-demand information for your entire team.  We’re opening a limited, private beta for this new feature in the coming days. If you’re interested in participating in this private program, please apply using this Google Form

Seeking feedback: how do you find out that knowledge in Guru has changed?

Hi Community!I’m Laura and I’m on the Product Management team here at Guru. Historically I’ve been focused on search and discovery–you may have seen me jump into conversations related to those areas here before. Recently, along with Kate, from our Design team, I’ve started to look into a new area and we are at the point where it would be wonderful to have your input on what we’re considering. Generally the goals of working on this new area are to: Help you work confidently by surfacing information that’s valuable but not getting explicitly sent to you through channels like announcements. Help you keep up with changes to information you rely on so you know you have the most current information available. Overall this should reduce the effort it takes to find information you need, and make it easier for you to stay up to date. To give you a clearer sense of what the outcome of this research might be, we are currently looking to understand how people interact with favorites, how people
