AI answer generator that answers from your text
Type a question. Paste a help article or policy to get an answer that uses only that text, or leave it empty for a general answer.

Short answer
An AI answer generator writes an answer to a question in seconds. Paste a source text, such as a help article or a policy, and this one answers only from it, and says plainly when the text does not answer the question instead of guessing. Without a source it gives a general answer, which you should check.
How to use the AI answer generator
- Type the question the way a customer or reader would ask it.
- Paste your source text and keep Answer only from my text on. Use the help article, policy or product page that should hold the answer. Turn the option off for a general answer.
- Pick a tone and a format, then generate. Read the answer against your text before you use it.
Two modes: from your text, or general
| Answer only from my text | General answer | |
|---|---|---|
| Uses | Only the text you paste | What the model learned in training |
| When the answer is missing | Says "The text you gave does not answer this question." | Says it is not sure |
| Good for | Customer replies, checking help articles, policy questions | Explanations, first drafts, ideas |
| Risk | Low: you can check every sentence against the text | Higher: facts and dates can be wrong |
The source mode is the one support teams need. A customer asks about your refund window, your shipping times or your plan limits. The right answer is the one in your own policy, not a typical answer from the internet. Pasting the policy keeps the model on your facts.
Use it to test your help articles
The not-found sentence is useful on its own. Paste a help article, then ask the questions customers really send. Every time the generator says the text does not answer the question, you have found a gap in the article. Common gaps:
- The article explains how something works but not what it costs.
- It covers the normal case but not the exception (a late return, a failed payment).
- It uses your internal name for a feature, and the customer uses a different word.
- The answer is there, but spread across three paragraphs that never say it directly.
Fix the article, paste it again and ask the same question. When the answer comes back right in the first sentence, the article is ready for customers, and for any AI tool that reads it.
For example, paste a returns policy that says "Items can be returned within 30 days" and ask "Can I return a sale item?". If the policy never mentions sale items, the right answer is that the text does not say, and that is what you get.
Get better answers
- Ask one thing at a time. "Can I get a refund and how long does it take?" works better as two questions.
- Paste the whole relevant section, including the conditions and exceptions, not one sentence.
- Use bullet points for steps and lists, and the paragraph format for explanations.
- Choose concise when the answer goes into a chat or a short email.
Why AI answers go wrong, and how a source helps
A language model writes the most likely next words. Without a source, a likely answer and a correct answer are not the same thing, which is how models produce confident answers with wrong numbers. Giving the model the text and telling it to refuse when the text is silent turns the task from "remember" into "read", which models do far more reliably.
That is the same rule a good customer support chatbot follows across a whole help center: search your pages, answer only from what it finds, and say so when nothing fits.

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from asking a chatbot?
With a source text, the generator may use only that text. If the answer is not there, it says "The text you gave does not answer this question." instead of filling the gap with a guess. That is how you check whether your own help article really answers a customer question.
Can I trust the answers?
Answers from your own text are easier to check: compare them with the text. General answers without a source can be wrong or out of date, so check facts, numbers and dates before you use them.
What can I paste as the source?
Any text up to 8,000 characters: a help article, a returns policy, product specs, an email thread or meeting notes. Plain text works; formatting is not needed.
Can I use it to answer customer emails?
Yes. Paste the relevant help article as the source and the customer question as the question, then edit the answer before you send it. For a whole help center, a support chatbot that searches all your pages does the same job automatically.
Is it free?
Yes. You get 5 free AI runs a day without an account, shared by all our AI tools. What you enter is sent to our AI model to write the answer and is not stored.
