All-Time Summary

The All-time summary section displays the total aggregated data for the whole period when a Raffle Search UI has been live and active on a platform.

All-Time Summary

  • Return on Investment: Return on Investment is the total amount saved by the customer when using Raffle Search. This is calculated by the company-specific average time to solve a case and average cost per inquiry.
  • Resolution Rate: Total Resolution Rate is the total percentage of how well Raffle performs in resolving search inquiries.

  • Total Sessions: Total Sessions is the total number of search sessions made with Raffle Search since being implemented on a platform.

Support Channels

The Support Channels section displays the percentage and breakdown of Customer Support option usages for users who asked questions and opted to contact Customer Service on the chance that they did not find what they were looking for.

These search sessions are considered unresolved, and are calculated based on the number of questions routed to support, divided by the total number of sessions for a specific period of time.

Resolution Over Time

Resolution over time displays the total number of sessions that have been resolved versus the number of sessions that were considered unresolved for a specific period of time.

  • Resolved Session: A search session is considered resolved if a user performs a search and decides to either click a result or leave the Search UI, with the assumption that the user found what they were looking for without requiring any further action.

  • Unresolved Session: A search session is considered NOT resolved if a user performs a search and then tries to contact Customer Service from the Search UI, with the assumption that they did not find what they were looking for and are now opting for further CS interaction.

Resolutions Over Time

Distribution of Sessions

Distribution of sessions displays the average number of unique sessions for the selected period of time.

A session is a 10-minute window that captures and collects user actions such as searching, clicking on answers, contacting support, etc.

Each search session is started when a user starts interacting with the Search UI on a page and expires after 10 minutes. This limit is meant to capture searches that are likely related (e.g. refining a search after each try). This means that:

  • If the same user performs another search after 10 minutes, even without leaving the site, this is then counted as another session
  • If a user moves to another page, that is counted as a new session since the Search UI is newly loaded when launched

Distribution of Sessions

The Trending Questions section lists questions that users have searched for using a Raffle Search UI. These questions are listed in groups (“clusters”) under the same topics.

Trending Questions List

Question Clusters

User-asked questions are listed in Trending Question clusters, grouped according to relevance and ordered from most to least searched. The list is updated on a weekly basis.

View Questions

This list contains ALL questions that have been asked using a Search UI for a specific period of time. Questions are grouped and displayed as: clusters → subtopics → list of actual user queries

On the far right panel, Raffle displays a list of search results that are shown to users when they search for the selected question. For search result adjustments, refer to Rules Engine.

Export Questions

The export function downloads a CSV copy of the Trending Questions list for a specific period of time.

The Popular Pages section lists articles that are frequently clicked from Raffle searches. Entries are ordered from most clicked and viewed to least selected, and the list is updated on an hourly basis.

Popular Pages List

Knowledge Gaps

The Knowledge Gaps section lists ALL questions users have searched for that:

  • does not have available and related information on the website
  • may not have direct answers (these are listed as knowledge gaps because the model is unsure of the answer-to-question relevancy)

How are Knowledge Gaps determined:

In the background, the model calculates the average similarity between the cluster of questions and all the sections. The clusters resulting with the lowest similarity represent potentially missing information in the index, available but dissimilar information,

Knowledge Gaps List

Gap Clusters

Knowledge Gaps are questions grouped together in clusters of the same topics determined according to model sureness, which means that the more unsure the model is about the relevance of the answers to a user question, the higher a cluster is placed on the list. It takes at least 200 questions over time to generate knowledge gaps clusters. The list is updated on a weekly basis.
