How to Build an Internal Chatbot in Minutes

To build an internal chatbot, you pick what it should know — a table, a set of documents, or public links — write its instructions, and publish it. No integration protocol and no connecting several services together.

What an internal chatbot is actually for

The usual first instinct is customer support. In practice, the highest-value internal chatbots answer questions employees ask repeatedly.

"How many vacation days do I have left?"
"What is our policy on expense reimbursement?"
"Which opportunities are still open in my region?"
"What is the difference between our two service plans?"

Two kinds of knowledge base

Table-based — the agent answers questions about records in a specific table, like opportunities or tickets
Document-based — the agent answers from attached documentation, with no table involved at all
Public links — external pages can be added as a source
Combined — a table for the data, documents for the rules around it

How to configure it in Jestor

Create a new agent in Jestor and choose the chatbot type, available in build mode.
Select the table it should answer from, or leave it empty and attach documents instead.
Upload the documentation — an HR manual or a vacation policy works with no table at all.
Customize the appearance: logo, background colour, chatbot image, and the opening question.
Write the prompt that sets its tone, from strictly professional to deliberately informal.

Why choose Jestor for internal AI agents?

Jestor keeps agent creation to a few clicks — no protocols to configure and nothing to connect externally. Agents are reachable from the Home screen and from a dedicated agents view where you can filter, deactivate, and manage all of them.

The agent also keeps context across follow-up questions in the same conversation, so people do not have to restate their question each time.
