The Problem
Your company has decided to use Guru. While we certainly wouldn’t call that a problem, we do understand that getting started with any new software can be daunting. Sure, there are lots of great features, but finding out what it can do for you feels overwhelming.
The Solution
With AI enterprise search, a wiki, and an intranet in one powerful platform, it’s clear that Guru can help everyone on your team. By taking just a few simple steps, you can start using Guru and get the answers you need instantly. Here’s how:
Use Guru where you’re already working
Why add another tool to your already piled-high tech stack? Because Guru isn’t just another destination—it’s the hub that brings all of your scattered apps and content together so you can find what you need fast. Use the browser extension, Slack or Teams app, and numerous integrations and let Guru deliver information right where you’re already working. You'll save time and boost productivity just by using Guru with your existing tools.
Stop searching endlessly for answers—just ask Guru
We all know the feeling: You’re at work, in the groove, and you realize you need some information. But is it in a doc? A deck? Is the deck even up to date? Once you’re finally done searching, you’ve broken your flow and lost valuable time. Luckily, there’s a better way. Once your team’s admin has connected all of your disparate sources (think Google Drive or Dropbox), your scattered content becomes a single source of truth, enabled by Guru’s smart enterprise search. Or use Guru’s Answers feature. Just ask a question in natural language, and Guru’s AI will deliver your answer instantly.

Meet your personal writing assistant
From documentation to sales collateral to customer communications and more, writing is a significant part of most jobs. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy—unless you have Assist, Guru’s AI writing assistant, by your side. Say goodbye to writer's block and let Assist create your first draft for you. Or take what you’ve already written and let Assist summarize, improve, or translate it. Need something a bit more personalized, like a prompt that automatically rewrites content in your company’s brand voice? Ask your team’s admin about setting up custom AI prompts for Assist.

Stay in the know
Guru is like a cheat sheet for work, automatically alerting you to new information and giving you a bird’s-eye view of how your company functions. Follow the content or authors whose information you use frequently and get notified (in your workflow!) every time there’s an update. Guru’s intranet functionality also gives you a personalized homepage with AI-recommended content that’s relevant to you and your role. And for critical updates from leadership, you’ll receive announcements that are almost impossible to miss, so you’ll never feel out of the loop.
Get to know your colleagues
Guru automatically creates employee profiles and an org chart for your company via an easy HRIS sync. Access these people resources directly within Guru to quickly view profiles of your colleagues—see their contact info, department, manager, and more. Use the org chart to understand reporting lines and company structure at a glance. This internal resource makes collaborating and navigating your work relationships seamless. And if you still can’t figure out who to go to for a particular task or question, Guru’s AI will suggest the right expert at your org.
