Use Cases

Support that changes by product page, not only by keyword.

Canonica is strongest where SaaS users ask the same question from different screens and need different support truth.

Billing and plan questions

Context

Billing, invoices, plan limits, upgrades, downgrades

Outcome

Show scoped answers tied to plan entities and recent billing-related releases.

Example question

Why was I charged again?

Generic answer

Please check your billing page or contact support.

Canonica answer

You are on Billing. Your plan renews monthly, failed invoice retries run for the configured retry window, and payment can be updated from Settings -> Billing.

Onboarding confusion

Context

Setup checklist, first project, invite flow, import flow

Outcome

Return surface-specific guidance and turn repeated gaps into a reviewable knowledge proposal.

Example question

What should I do first?

Generic answer

Follow the setup checklist and complete each step.

Canonica answer

You are on Import. Start with docs, setup guides, FAQs, and recurring support questions so drafts and entity candidates can be reviewed.

Settings and configuration

Context

Domains, account roles, permissions, product setup, billing settings

Outcome

Ground answers in configured product surfaces instead of sending every user to generic docs.

Example question

Can my teammate change billing?

Generic answer

Check your user role permissions in settings.

Canonica answer

You are on Team Settings. Billing changes require an owner-level permission; if that answer is incomplete, Canonica routes the gap to review.

Release support

Context

New features, changed workflows, removed states, version mismatch

Outcome

Connect changelog entries to affected answers so stale support content becomes visible.

Example question

Did usage limits change?

Generic answer

Read the latest release notes for usage limits.

Canonica answer

The usage-limits release affected plan quota answers. Canonica flags stale-answer risk until the related canonical answer is reviewed.

Hosted help for public support

Context

help.yourapp.com, docs.yourapp.com, FAQ, changelog, public article pages

Outcome

Publish reviewed docs, FAQs, and release notes without exposing tickets, chat history, or workspace internals.

Example question

Where can users read help without logging in?

Generic answer

Create a public docs or help center site.

Canonica answer

Publish reviewed docs, FAQ, and changelog on a hosted help domain while tickets and workspace internals stay private.

Support fallback

Context

No canonical answer, low-confidence result, negative feedback, ticket resolution

Outcome

Capture the gap as a signal and route it toward mutation proposals for owner review.

Example question

Why did this action fail?

Generic answer

Try again or contact support with a screenshot.

Canonica answer

If approved content is missing, fallback is marked, feedback is captured, and the repeated gap becomes a signal-to-knowledge proposal.

Errors and edge cases

Context

Failed import, webhook error, blocked action, permission issue

Outcome

Treat errors as product entities so future answers can stay stable and searchable.

Example question

What does this error mean?

Generic answer

Search the docs for this error or contact support.

Canonica answer

The error is mapped as a product entity so the next user sees a stable, reviewed explanation tied to the affected workflow.
