An auto-updating knowledge base is a system that connects your documents, data sources, and content to your AI agents and keeps everything in sync automatically. Instead of manually updating your agent every time information changes, the knowledge base handles it for you.
Pickaxe's knowledge base supports 14+ content types including PDFs, Google Drive, Notion, SharePoint, YouTube, RSS feeds, and more. When you connect a source, Pickaxe processes and indexes the content, then refreshes it daily so your agents always have current information.
Without a knowledge base, AI agents rely solely on their training data — which can be outdated or generic. With Pickaxe's knowledge base, your agents answer questions using your specific business data: product docs, company policies, training materials, or any other content you provide.
The knowledge base works at two levels: workspace-level bases that multiple agents can share, and agent-specific bases for specialized content. This means you can maintain a single source of truth across your entire organization while still giving individual agents their own expertise.
