Frequently asked questions.

How is knowledgeXpert different from ChatGPT or NotebookLM?

ChatGPT and NotebookLM generate answers from their training data or limited uploads — they can't guarantee citations to your specific documents and they hallucinate. knowledgeXpert only answers from your uploaded documents, and every answer includes a citation to the exact source page. If the answer isn't in your documents, it says so.

Can I try knowledgeXpert before committing?

Yes. We offer a free trial so you can upload your own documents and test knowledgeXpert with real workflows. A credit card is required to start your trial, but you won't be charged during the trial period.

What types of documents does knowledgeXpert support?

PDFs, Word documents, SOPs, catalogs, manuals, engineering drawings, regulatory filings, and more. knowledgeXpert processes and indexes the full content so it can deliver multi-source, cross-referenced answers with citations.

How long does setup take?

Most teams are live in under two weeks. Upload your documents, configure your knowledge bases, and start asking questions. We handle onboarding and can scope a focused pilot so you see value quickly.

Is my data secure?

Every organization gets an isolated tenant. Your documents never train public AI models, never leave your environment, and are never shared with other customers. BearCreek AI is SOC 2 Type I and ISO 27001 certified, with end-to-end encryption and role-based access controls.

Will there be more resources added?

Yes. We're continuously publishing guides, case studies, and industry-specific playbooks. Check back regularly or book a demo to discuss your specific use case — we're happy to share relevant examples from your industry.
