Guru Alternative
From hand-written knowledge cards to source-document answers: where does the maintenance burden go?
TL;DR
KobiGPT focuses on isolated RAG assistants over your documents with SME-friendly pricing. Guru is stronger for wiki-style knowledge—compare citations, hosting, and TR support.

The maintenance problem in card-based knowledge management
In wiki and card-based knowledge bases, content is written by hand: someone summarises a topic, turns it into a card, and verifies it periodically. The model works, but rests on an assumption — that an owner exists to keep the cards current. In practice that ownership weakens over time; verification dates lapse, cards drift from the source document, and two truths emerge: what the card says and what the procedure says.
The drift becomes most visible when legislation or a procedure changes. The procedure file is updated but the card summarising it is not; the team reads the card and acts on the old rule. The card-based system is not itself flawed, but it requires continuous human maintenance.
Answering from the source document
KobiGPT takes a different approach: it produces no intermediate summary layer, indexing the source document and answering from it directly. When the procedure file is updated it is re-indexed and answers automatically reflect the new content; there is no separate card left to update.
The cost of this is that answer quality binds directly to document quality. A well-written procedure produces good answers; a vague or contradictory document produces vague answers. In a card system a human resolves that ambiguity while writing; in a document-based system it must be resolved in the document itself.
What happens to your cards during migration
Your existing cards are not lost; you can export and upload them as documents. But the practical recommendation differs: rather than moving the cards, attaching the source documents the cards summarise usually produces better results. A card is already an interpretation of a source, and indexing the interpretation creates a double layer.
During migration the cards make a good audit tool: where a card and the assistant's source-grounded answer disagree, either the document or the card is out of date. That comparison makes the real debt in your knowledge base visible. The 100-document capacity on the Ücretsiz plan plan is enough to run that audit.
FAQ
Can we migrate from Guru?
Export your docs and upload them; they are re-indexed in KobiGPT.
Do you integrate with Microsoft/Google?
Direct upload is the native path; there is no ready Microsoft or Google connector.
Is KobiGPT cheaper?
Depends on seats and usage—verify list prices on official sites.
Security?
Review the privacy notice and Data Processing Agreement for the proposed scope.
Can we import our cards?
You can export and upload them as documents. Attaching the source documents the cards summarise usually produces better results.
Is there a verification-date mechanism?
There is no card verification workflow; the assistant reflects the files attached to it. Currency comes from maintaining the document set.
