Knowledge Base

A knowledge base is an organised, searchable collection of a business's useful answers and how-to guides, kept in one place so people can help themselves. It holds the questions that come up again and again, from customers or staff, with a clear written answer for each.

It is like a well-indexed household folder where the warranty, the manual and the plumber's number all live, so you are not hunting through drawers. A knowledge base matters because answering the same question a hundred times is slow and costly, while a good written answer serves everyone at once.
