  7. Congrats on the launch! We're building something similar [1] and are also observing a lot of the same usage patterns. What seems to happen when the chatbot says "Hmmm, I don't know..." is that the DevRel team uses that to guide them to missing documentation sections. That's why we're building a whole analytics suite and documentation heatmap around the product to give insights about doc usage. Here's a quick demo [2…
