›Why this process needs a structured workflow
Agents waste 40% of their time searching for solutions across email threads, shared drives and tribal knowledge — and when a senior agent leaves, their know-how leaves with them. Static KBs go stale within weeks because nobody updates them manually.
Utilyx models the knowledge base as a living workflow: the AI generates articles from resolved tickets, flags them for review, and serves them through semantic search so agents and users find answers in seconds.
›The automated KB workflow
The workflow is structured as a decision tree with 3 branches (Auto-publish, Review-required, Reject) and 6 steps end-to-end. Each step is executed by a named actor (Resolution trigger, AI Agent, KB reviewer, ai-agent semantic search, End user, KB owner) and every action is timestamped.
- Step 1 (Start — Resolution trigger): when an incident or request is closed, the workflow extracts the resolution text, ticket category, affected CI and diagnostic timeline. Fields: source_ticket_id, resolution_text, category, ci_affected, language.
- Step 2 (AI Agent): the ai-agent generates a draft KB article from the resolution — structured as problem statement, root cause, resolution steps, verification — and assigns a confidence score. It also detects duplicates against existing KB and merges if similarity > 80%.
- Step 3 (Routing): three branches — Branch A (confidence > 0.85, common category): auto-publish to KB with 'draft' visibility for the KB owner; Branch B (confidence 0.6-0.85, or sensitive category like security): routed to KB reviewer for validation; Branch C (confidence < 0.6, or duplicate): rejected, resolution text kept in ticket archive only.
- Step 4B (KB reviewer): the reviewer edits the draft, adds tags, screenshots and cross-references, then publishes. Review SLA is 48h; overdue drafts escalate to the KB owner.
- Step 5 (ai-agent semantic search): when an agent or end user searches the KB, the ai-agent performs semantic search (not keyword) across all articles in 7 languages, returning the top 3 matches with relevance scores. If a user-facing query matches a KB article above threshold, the self-service portal surfaces it before a ticket is created (deflection).
- Step 6 (KB owner): monthly, the KB owner runs a freshness review — the AI flags articles not accessed in 90 days for archive, and articles with declining success rates for rewrite.
›Concrete benefits
Teams that adopt Utilyx report agent search time cut by 40%, 50% of new KB articles auto-generated from resolved tickets without manual writing, and 35% ticket deflection on the self-service portal because semantic search surfaces the answer before the ticket is created.
The 7-language semantic search lets a single KB serve a multilingual user base, the confidence-based routing balances auto-publish speed with review control, and the freshness review keeps the KB relevant — no stale articles polluting search results.

Frequently asked questions
Does the AI write KB articles automatically?
Yes. When a ticket is closed, the ai-agent generates a draft KB article from the resolution text, assigns a confidence score, and either auto-publishes (high confidence) or routes to a KB reviewer (sensitive or lower confidence).
How does semantic search differ from keyword search?
The ai-agent performs semantic search across all KB articles in 7 languages, matching intent rather than exact words — so an agent searching 'email not arriving' finds the article titled 'mailbox delivery delay' even without keyword overlap.
