Implementing Amazon Kendra for Intelligent Search

Introduction to Amazon Kendra

Clients and customers have a lot on their plates. They don't have the time to go through web pages or posts to learn about who you are, what you provide, and how much your goods or services cost. They want to know straight away if you're the appropriate person for them. An FAQ page allows centralizing all of these fundamental answers, saving customers time.

Customers may answer all inquiries on a FAQ page or Frequently Asked Questions page. It not only makes life simpler for website users, but it may also save an organization time and resources by reducing the number of clients that contact for replies.
