The questions your documents can't answer yet

Product · 2026-05-14 · 5 min read

Most knowledge tools can tell you what people read. Almost none can tell you what people looked for and didn't find. That second list is worth far more — it's a ranked backlog of documentation your team needs and doesn't have.

Where the gaps list comes from

AskMyDocs refuses to fake answers: when retrieval finds nothing relevant to a question, it says so. Every one of those honest misses is recorded, and the admin Insights screen collects them into a knowledge-gaps list — the actual questions your teammates asked, verbatim, that no document could answer.

Reading it feels uncomfortably specific. "What's the travel reimbursement limit for client visits?" asked three times in a week isn't an analytics data point; it's an assignment with a deadline.

The rest of the picture

  • Queries per day and active users — is the team actually asking, or still pinging the one person who knows things?
  • Most-cited documents — the pages doing real work; keep these current first.
  • Answer feedback — thumbs up and down on answers, reviewable in one place.

A simple weekly loop

The workflow we see working: once a week, an admin opens Insights, takes the top three knowledge gaps, and gets the answers written into a document — a policy page, an FAQ, a runbook. Drop it into a synced folder and it's indexed within minutes. The same question next week gets a cited answer instead of a miss, and the gap disappears from the list. Documentation stops being a someday project and becomes a short weekly errand driven by real demand.
