Elevating the User Experience: fabric’s Commitment to Innovation

Blog Image Background

At fabric, our commitment to our customers extends beyond building impactful products; we strive to create exceptional user experiences, from how developers onboard to ensuring easy product navigation for every user. 

For us, true innovation lies in how seamlessly our solutions integrate into our users’ workflows. That’s one of our many goals when we’re developing new products and features: it should enhance, improve, and simplify our customers’ processes.

We are excited to share our latest advancements that further our commitment to customer-centric innovations. These include documentation improvements with our new AI-powered search and a comprehensive overhaul of key product documentation. 

Let’s dive in!

AI-Powered Search Makes Search Easier

Our new AI-powered search serves as a personalized guide to our documentation. It offers answers to chat-based questions such as, “How do I cancel part of an order” or “I’m an SI developer setting up Product Catalog for the first time. Where should I begin?” 

AI-powered search understands the context and nuances of each question and builds an answer for the user in real-time. This means everyone, from a store manager navigating inventory systems to a developer looking for code examples to a business user exploring feature overviews, can get the information they need, easily and quickly using plain language.

Streamlined User and API Guides for Faster Navigation

We’ve significantly upgraded our User Guides and API Reference to provide a more streamlined and intuitive experience. The new guides offer clear and concise walkthroughs of our Product Catalog and Orders modules, making it easier for all users to navigate our platform.

This revamp to User Guides and API Reference also works together with our new AI-powered search functionality so users get the most relevant results quickly.

Information Architecture and Usability

Our documentation adheres to global standards in information architecture and technical communication, with a strong emphasis on usability. This ensures that users can easily find, access, and understand the information they need. Comprehensive and user-friendly documentation is crucial for successful implementation and integration, and we are dedicated to providing the best possible experience.

Embracing Composability

Our documentation strategy focuses on creating modular content that can be reused and adapted across various contexts. This composable approach enhances the flexibility and usability of our documentation, aligning with modern information architecture and technical communication standards. 

Looking Ahead

These enhancements are just the beginning. One of our key initiatives is the planned integration of an AI-powered documentation widget directly in fabric. We’re calling it fabric Copilot. 

fabric Copilot will provide instant, contextual support, allowing users to access important information without leaving the platform. It’s seamlessly integrated with the fabric platform to enhance user engagement and satisfaction and ensure the experience aligns perfectly with our users’ needs.

We’re excited to be on this journey with you.  Documentation isn’t always the most exciting part of a product. But, we are on a mission to revolutionize commerce, and that includes how our customers interact with our documentation.
