Transforming Quality Assurance with Botable

Written by Edwin Chung
Published on August 15, 2025

Quality assurance (QA) teams grapple with information overload, regulatory compliance, and bottlenecks caused by manual document retrieval.  After years of working with different QA teams struggling with the same issues, we discovered Botable. Botable is an AI-driven chatbot solution that empowers QA departments to dramatically improve efficiency, accuracy, and collaboration. Let’s explore how Botable can be used to transform the work that QA teams do.

Real-World Quality Team Challenges

Modern quality assurance teams face a growing number of operational roadblocks that hinder efficiency and consistency. Team members often find themselves stuck waiting for answers to basic questions, while subject-matter experts are overwhelmed by a constant stream of routine inquiries that pull them away from critical tasks.  Valuable time is lost searching for the right documents or procedures. This leads to slower decisions and delayed progress across projects. Inconsistencies in workflows and missed details can compromise compliance and product quality.  Meanwhile, onboarding new team members takes longer than it should, as they struggle to find and understand key documentation without immediate support.  Together, these challenges create a cycle of inefficiency that prevents QA teams from operating at their full potential.

Instant, Context-Aware Answers for Quality Assurance Teams

Botable connects directly with your Quality Management System (QMS)—such as MasterControl, Arena, and others—to deliver instant, reliable answers drawn from SOPs, work instructions, forms, and other essential documents.  Teams no longer waste time searching or waiting. They access exactly what they need when they need it, allowing them to accelerate their product development cycle.

24/7 Availability and SME Relief

QA subject-matter experts often get bogged down answering repetitive questions. Botable handles thousands of routine queries around the clock, allowing SMEs to focus on high-value tasks like investigations, audits, and continuous improvement projects.

Seamless Integration with MasterControl

As an SPK partner, we’ve implemented Botable to work seamlessly with MasterControl Qx—widely used in regulated industries.  Botable’s chatbot searches the MasterControl repository in real-time, ensuring teams access the latest approved procedures without navigating complex folder hierarchies.

More Consistency, Fewer Errors

Through AI-powered workflows, Botable ensures QA teams follow documented procedures consistently.  From deviation investigations to complaint analysis, Botable promotes adherence to quality standards, reduces process variation, and strengthens audit readiness.

Data-Driven Quality Improvements

Botable tracks user queries and interactions, offering dashboards that reveal knowledge gaps, frequently accessed content, and training opportunities.  QA leaders can use these insights to streamline documentation and optimize team efficiency.  The fact that data can be used to share the proper answer is a foundational use of AI moving forward.

Our new complaint analysis chatbot processes and analyzes complaints instantly, achieving an impressive accuracy rate of over 99%. This solution has enabled us to manage the increased volume effectively without needing to hire additional staff, all while maintaining our commitment to quality.”
