FAQs Q: Why did my AI provide a certain answer? A: The AI will use facts and knowledge that it’s been trained on. If an answer was incorrect, it’s likely that the source training data was incorrect – the most common culprit is old or incorrect information found on the website. Q: How long does training take? A: Depending on the size of a website, and how many pages the AI is trained on, it may take 1-5 minutes for the AI to begin using the new knowledge in its answers. Be patient after training a large website when testing. Q: Can the AI be trained on all the pages on my website? A: By default, only the home page of the website will be scraped. The AI can then be trained on up to 100 pages from a website. Choose ‘follow links’ or ‘sitemap’ mode for finding pages on a website to give the AI as much content as possible to answer questions for your leads and customers. Q: Why am I having issues with AI scraping a certain site? A: This may be blocked in the WordPress settings for the site. To check, navigate to the WordPress dashboard > Settings > General > Privacy > Ensure that 'Prevent third-party sharing for' is unchecked.

The monthly Executive Report usually goes out between the 1st - 3rd days of each month. The weekly Executive Report is sent out on Mondays. The Executive Report may be sent outside of business days as it recognizes the start of each month, not specifically Monday-Friday. Accounts with active products generally trigger Executive Reports to be sent, however, for accounts with only Local SEO active, users will not receive any Executive reports if they don't have any changes in data as changes in the data are needed for a new executive report entry.  Please note that if there are no changes from the previous month for any specific section of the report, the section will not populate on the report for the current month.
