I was losing 15 hours a week to repetitive support tickets. So I built FAQ Hub (Live on PH today!)
Hey Indie Hackers,
Like many solo builders, every hour I spent answering the exact same tier-1 support questions was an hour stolen from shipping code.
When I looked at existing helpdesk tools, I hit two main walls:
The Per-Seat Tax: Legacy support platforms charge per agent or per resolution, which feels like a penalty for growing your SaaS.
The Discovery Gap: Users rarely leave an app to read a separate documentation page—they want answers right where they get stuck.
Generic AI chatbots weren't an option either because I couldn't risk a bot hallucinating wrong features or pricing to my users.
So I built FAQ Hub to fix this for bootstrapped founders.
How it works under the hood
FAQ Hub turns your messy docs, PDFs, or site URLs into a reviewable knowledge base and embeds an in-app AI chat widget + searchable help portal using a single script tag.
Hallucination Control: The bot draws context exclusively from your grounded knowledge base and uses a second-level judge to verify answers before sending.
Human Gatekeeper Workflow: Editors can draft answers, but admins approve before anything goes live. The bot only speaks what you've vetted.
Smart Escalation: If confidence drops below 90% or the user asks for a human, it passes the full chat context straight to Slack, email, Telegram, or an n8n workflow.
Fast & Style-Isolated: Built with Web Components and Shadow DOM encapsulation so it loads super fast and never leaks CSS into your app.
Flat-Rate Pricing: $49/mo for Solo Founders and $99/mo for Growth Teams—no per-seat fees, no per-resolution penalties.
Multi-Tenant: Manage multiple SaaS products from one single dashboard with segregated data.

We are officially launching on Product Hunt today! Setup takes about 4 minutes, and there's a 7-day free trial with zero credit card required.
I’d love for the IH community to check it out, roast the onboarding flow, or leave feedback on the Product Hunt page:

How are you currently handling tier-1 support for your SaaS apps?
The strongest part is the human approval layer around the knowledge base. Grounding the bot is useful, but making sure only reviewed answers reach customers gives founders a much clearer safety boundary for support automation.
I fully agree. That is one of FAQ Hub's biggest strengths. It has a powerful content management layer. What you're saying is a critical part of the FAQ Hub functionality.
That makes sense. The human review layer seems like an important part of the trust model. I’d be interested to hear how users respond to it as usage grows.
I'll definitely share. It's free to try out at no cost for 7 days. I would love the feedback if you’re up for it.
That’s useful. I’d be interested to hear what the first users actually make of that review layer.
I'll update you.
