Gartner states that “This research helps customer service and support technology leaders to identify KM innovations that enable the transformation of service operations and customer experience.”1
Growing Importance of AI in Customer Service Knowledge Management
According to the latest Gartner report “By 2028, 40% of large enterprises will adopt AI-powered customer service knowledge automation solutions, up from less than 5% in 2025.”[1]
The Gartner report shows how “AI-powered taxonomy automation, knowledge capture, creation and curation are rendering conventional KM practices obsolete.”[1]
Three CS-KMS Capability Categories
According to the report, “CS-KMS solutions are composed of three capability categories:
1. End-user engagement ranks and presents the most relevant answers to a specific query or ingests a single relevant actionable insight to a moment in a user journey and additionally gives a user the ability to navigate a corpus of content.
2. Curation and contextualization supports the discovery and/or retrieval, sorting, and clustering of content assets for delivery at relevant moments in the user journey, including metadata, search, and monitoring, reporting and/or analyzing performance.
3. Knowledge life cycle management captures, assesses, authors and/or creates, reviews, edits, publishes, controls, and retires knowledge assets.”1
