noco Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Ken Horibe) announces the launch of email authentication on its AI support system 'Helpdog' (https://helpdog.ai), allowing FAQ sites and AI chatbots to be published exclusively to a specific audience.
## The Challenge of Access Control in Information Publishing
When companies operate support desks or knowledge bases, there are many cases where they want to share certain information only with a specific audience, rather than making it public to everyone.
Examples include internal operation manuals or dedicated AI chatbots for specific clients and agencies. However, implementing such restricted information sharing often required complex access restriction settings or the issuance of dedicated accounts, making operational effort and system implementation hurdles a significant challenge.
## A Simple Mechanism to Deliver Information Only to Authorized Users
By utilizing the newly added email authentication feature, only readers possessing an email address pre-registered by the administrator can view the FAQ sites, AI chatbots, forms, and widgets.
This reliably blocks access from unregistered users, allowing administrators to easily build restricted support portals targeted solely at specific stakeholders. Furthermore, since readers are treated as view-only users, there is no worry about them accidentally accessing the system's administration dashboard.
## Flexible Permissions and Efficient Operation Management
Administrators can freely switch between 'Public' and 'Restricted' settings for each specific function. Additionally, readers are centrally managed for the whole team via their email addresses, enabling bulk assignment of a single user to multiple FAQ sites and forms.
Therefore, even for needs where information must be disclosed only to necessary individuals, flexible permission granting is realized while minimizing the administrator's burden.
Moving forward, as an AI-powered all-in-one customer support system that seamlessly integrates FAQ sites, AI chatbots, and inquiry forms, we will continue to focus on maintaining strong governance and improving the support experience—connecting everything from self-service resolution to inquiry reception.
