GitBook Assistant gives your users fast, accurate answers about your documentation using natural language. It’s personalized on your users, can be embedded into your website or product, and available in the sidebar of your docs.
Think of it as a product expert available to all of your users, in the places and times they need it most.
The Assistant uses agentic retrieval to understand the context of the query based on the user’s current page, previously-read pages, and previous conversations they’ve had.
GitBook Assistant is trained on your documentation, but you can also add external sources to expand it’s context and knowledge and give better answers.
Press ⌘ + I on Mac or Ctrl + I on PC
Click the GitBook Assistant button next to the Ask or search… bar
Type a question into the Ask or search… bar and choose the ‘Ask…’ option at the top of the menu.
You can also choose to add external data sources to GitBook Assistant to give it more context and data to pull answers from. You can do this by connecting Assistant to MCP servers for external platforms, such as:
Your community (Slack, Discord, GitHub Communities etc)
Support tools (Intercom etc)
Your future product roadmap (GitHub, Linear etc)
Docs for external integrations with products
To add an MCP server to GitBook Assistant, follow these steps:
