  • The ChallengeA rebrand buried in a sprawling content library

    Nelson University’s site had a large content library spanning programs, history, schedules, and FAQs, forcing users into multi-click searches — made worse by the confusion the rebrand generated among alumni.

  • The SolutionAn AI chatbot built on a Managed Vector Database

    Click Here Labs built a custom AI chatbot powered by WP Engine’s Managed Vector Database using Retrieval-Augmented Generation, the Similarity API, custom prompt-management tools, and CrewAI-driven load testing to simulate high-volume inquiries.

ResultsFrom a six-click search to an instant answer

Questions that once took a six-click search, like a rebrand-related diploma question, now get instant, direct answers, and chat logs are used for content-gap analysis while staff use the tool internally for fast Q&A support during peak periods like enrollment.
