    Definition

    What is Knowledge base?

    A knowledge base is a centralized, searchable library of information (articles, guides, and answers) that helps people find what they need without asking someone directly.

    A knowledge base captures what a team or company knows and makes it findable. It can be internal (policies, processes, how-tos for employees) or external (help articles for customers).

    The value is self-service and consistency: the same accurate answer is available to everyone, reducing repeat questions and preserving knowledge when people leave. Good structure and search are what make it usable.

    Atlas includes a wiki and searchable knowledge base alongside the work it documents, so answers live next to the projects, customers, and processes they describe.

    FAQ

    Questions, answered.

    What is the difference between a knowledge base and a wiki?
    A wiki is a collaborative set of interlinked pages anyone can edit. A knowledge base is a more structured, curated library, often with categories and search designed for finding answers.
    What should go in a knowledge base?
    Common content includes policies, processes, how-to guides, FAQs, troubleshooting, and reference material: anything people repeatedly need to look up.
