## Key Features

* **Knowledge Base Improvement and Article Optimization:** Across multiple releases, tools have been introduced to help build comprehensive, accurate knowledge bases by identifying and filling content gaps, removing redundancies, and optimizing articles for quality and relevance using the Article Optimization tool.
* **AI-Powered Article Creation and Editing:** Integration with ServiceNow Otto (formerly Now Assist) enables AI-assisted generation and editing of articles. This includes formatting capabilities for text, images, and media, as well as leveraging external content sources such as Microsoft SharePoint and Box to enrich article content.
* **Knowledge Health Scoring:** Customizable health scores at both article and knowledge base levels allow organizations to prioritize quality improvements. New scoring elements include duplicate content detection and article length assessments to optimize search visibility and AI indexing.
* **Duplicate Article Management:** Features to identify, merge, and automatically publish duplicate articles help maintain a clean, high-quality knowledge base. Auto-merge settings include configurable confidence thresholds and revert windows for controlled updates.
* **Automated Article Updates:** Auto-fix capabilities based on AI scans (e.g., Image Alt Tag) allow automatic updating and publishing of articles, improving accessibility and consistency without manual intervention.
* **Knowledge Gap Analysis Enhancements:** Inclusion of HR case data in gap analysis alongside IT and CSM data enables faster identification and remediation of missing knowledge related to HR cases.
* **Health and Usage Dashboards:** The Knowledge Center home page features dashboards displaying article health scores, knowledge base health, adoption metrics, and usage insights to support ongoing content management and user experience improvements.

## Changes and Naming Updates

* ServiceNow's AI branding transitioned to **ServiceNow Otto®**, reflecting the new AI experience brand while maintaining existing product entitlements.
* System properties related to auto-update and auto-publish functions have been renamed for clarity, such as "Enable automatic updating and publishing of articles from AO findings" and "Enable automatic merging and publishing of duplicate articles."
* Article editor enhancements include a word count indicator and a side panel summarizing health scores, optimization issues, usage insights, and duplicate alerts to assist authors in maintaining article quality.

## Activation and Configuration

* Knowledge Center is available by default to all Knowledge Management roles and is listed in the ServiceNow Store.
* To utilize auto-update and auto-publish features, enable the Article Optimization skill and the corresponding system properties (e.g., `snkmcenter.aoautoupdate.enabled`).
* Auto-merge and auto-publish of duplicates require enabling the Identify duplicate articles and Merge Articles skills, along with relevant system properties to configure confidence thresholds and revert periods.

## Deprecations and Removals

No features or functionalities for Knowledge Center were removed or deprecated between Yokohama and Brazil releases, except for the Now LLM Service older models being retired for new development, replaced by the Gemma 4 model in the Now LLM Service portfolio to ensure up-to-date AI capabilities with maintained data governance.

## Practical Impact for ServiceNow Customers

Upgrading to Brazil enables customers to:

* Enhance knowledge article quality and relevance through AI-driven optimization and health scoring.
* Streamline content creation by integrating external content sources like SharePoint and Box into AI-assisted authoring workflows.
* Maintain a well-organized knowledge base by automatically managing duplicate articles and stale content.
* Improve accessibility and search effectiveness with automated fixes and article length evaluations.
* Gain comprehensive insight into knowledge health and user engagement via enriched dashboards.
* Address broader organizational knowledge gaps, including HR-related issues, with expanded gap analysis capabilities.

These capabilities support more efficient knowledge management processes, better user experiences, and ultimately more reliable and accessible organizational knowledge.
