What is ARC?

ARC is a structured database of everything your AI agents need to know about your business:

  • Services and pricing: what you offer and what it costs
  • Policies and FAQs: your rules, guarantees, processes
  • Voice and tone: how you sound
  • Email templates: pre-approved messaging
  • People and roles: who does what on your team

When a customer asks the support agent "How much do you charge?", it searches ARC and answers from your pricing entry. Every time. No guessing.

How ARC Works

Customer Question

Step 2

ARC Search

The agent searches your knowledge base using semantic + keyword matching

Step 3

Response Formed

The agent combines ARC content with your brand voice

Step 4

ARC comes with every engagement

Frequently Asked Questions

In weeks 3 and 4, after CORE. Interviews capture company, services, brand voice and policies; existing documents, the website, FAQs and Slack or Notion content are ingested and structured into the eight ARC entry types. Building it is part of the days in your shape.

ARC is the single source of truth. Agents read it live at decision time and are never trained against it, so an edit is reflected on the next interaction. The Grow dashboard shows which entries each response used, so accuracy can be audited.
