Optimizing Search Accuracy through Improved Search Practices

Useful tips on how to promote behavior change for better search results.

For many clients, we have seen a behavior where most users are only providing keywords when querying documents with our knowledge base MRC solutions. While this approach may sometimes lead to the correct answer, it is not the most effective way to use our tool, Alli.


Why Using Full Sentences is Key to Relevant Results

Using full sentences when searching for information can provide more accurate and relevant results compared to using keywords. This is because full sentences provide a clearer context for what information is being sought, which helps our AI models to better understand the intent of the search. On the other hand, keywords can be ambiguous and may not provide enough context to identify the specific information being sought. By using full sentences, you can also filter out irrelevant results and obtain more targeted information.
