Customers, employees, and buyers reach grounded answers and product decisions by describing what they need.
Patchworks Answers Agent
Support answers arrive inside the product, so integration teams stop leaving their work to search three sources or wait on a ticket.
A platform agent that answers questions about the platform from its documentation, community threads, and knowledge base, without leaving the product.
What the agent does
Searches documentation, community threads, and the knowledge base in one pass, ranks what it finds by relevance and recency, and writes a sourced answer.

01
The problem
Why this exists
Teams that build and run integrations need answers all day about how the platform behaves: what a shape does, how a connector is configured, what an error means. The answer exists, but it sits in documentation, a community thread, or a knowledge base article, and reaching it means leaving the work at hand, searching three places, or raising a support ticket and waiting. The context is gone by the time the answer arrives, and a small question costs a morning.

The people asking are merchants who run their own integrations, partners and systems integrators who build for clients, and internal teams who operate the flows afterward. All of them are mid-build or mid-fix when the question lands.
02
Outcomes
What changes when this is in place
- Platform questions are answered inside the product instead of in documentation tabs or support tickets.
- Every answer carries links to the documentation, community thread, or knowledge base article it draws on.
- Builders and troubleshooters stay in the context they were working in while the question is resolved.

- How-to questions stop queuing with support, so the support team keeps its time for the work that needs it.
03
How it works
Architecture
The agent lives inside the product rather than beside it. It opens from the agent studio, or from a chat icon pinned in the top navigation that follows a user to any screen, so the question is asked where it arose and the answer comes back without a tab change.
Read more
A question is answered in one pass over three corpora: the product documentation, community posts and answers, and knowledge base articles. The agent searches them together, ranks the results by relevance and recency so a current page outranks an out-of-date article, and writes a single direct answer instead of a list of links, with the sources attached for anyone who wants to read further. The chat holds its context, so a follow-up can be a pronoun.
Output is prose in the chat panel plus source links, and nothing is exported: the answer stays where the work is happening. Asked how an error-handling shape behaves, the agent returns an overview of that shape, what it does, how to set it up, and how it behaves, without leaving the product.

Verification
Contributor submission
The detail on this page comes from the contributor's own account of their own work. The MACH Alliance reviews a submission before publishing it and does not independently verify the figures in it.
What this page does not establish
- No measured outcome is published; the submission says quantified customer results such as time-to-integration can be supplied as the entry is developed.
- The submission names no customer and gives no adoption, answer-accuracy, or ticket-deflection figure.
- Every answer starts with a person's question; the submission does not show the agent raising or resolving a problem unprompted.
Where this came from
Solution detail is drawn from Patchworks' three-page submission to the hub, Patchworks Answers Agent, and the product documentation page it cites for the screenshots.
