GoodData Cloud's support hub answers questions in plain language, with sources, so people resolve them in seconds instead of filing a ticket. I led the UX, designing for trust, scannable answers, and a graceful handoff to humans.
- Co-designed with support engineers to learn where an assistant helps and where it should step aside.
- Merged two intents, search and ask, into one entry point with a smooth search-to-ask handoff.
- Built source-grounded answers with inline citations so customers could trust them.
- Scoped the assistant to what it should actually answer, and invested as much in the handoff as in the answer.
- Deflection landed high within weeks of rollout.
Two intents, one entry
Users arrived with two goals: some wanted the answer, others wanted to find and read the doc.

The search-to-ask handoff
People reach for search first because it's familiar, but their query is often really a question an answer would serve better.

Answers built for trust
An answer you can't trace is an answer you won't act on.
