3. Ask good questions
The more specific you are, the better the answer. Include:
- Where: town and country, or coordinates.
- What: size (kW, kWh/day), customers, current costs and currency.
- What you want back: a quick answer, a table, a report or a file.
Example: "Size a solar + battery system for a clinic in Gulu, Uganda that uses 40 kWh a day, 30% at night, and has 4 hours of outages daily. Give me the cost per kWh in USD and UGX."
4. What the agents can do for you
- Real data: solar output (PVGIS), solar resource (NASA), weather forecasts, World Bank country indicators, energy mix, exchange rates.
- Maps: find a site's coordinates and the nearest mapped power lines and substations.
- Calculators: LCOE, cash flow, IRR, payback, battery and mini-grid sizing, CO2 avoided.
- Web search and reading: current news and official pages.
- Documents and charts: ask for "a Word report", "an Excel model", "a PDF" or "a chart". You get a download link that works for 7 days, so save the file.
- Calendar invites and email drafts: created as files you open and send yourself.
- Upload your files: attach a PPA, a load list or a bill with the paperclip and ask about it.
5. Trust, but check
- Regulatory answers cite the official document and section, e.g. [KE_EPRA_Regulation_Net-Metering-Regulations-LN104_2024, reg. 10]. If something isn't in the verified documents, the agent says so.
- Figures marked indicative are estimates, not quotes. Confirm them with suppliers, the utility or the regulator before you rely on them.
- Ndiribho gives information, not legal, financial or engineering advice. See the Terms of Use.
6. Memory and privacy
Ndiribho remembers useful facts you share, such as your role, organisation, countries and preferred currency, so you don't repeat yourself. See and delete them under Memories in the side panel. Don't share passwords, ID numbers or bank details. See the Privacy Policy.
7. Usage allowance
Each account has a usage allowance. Long reports, especially from the Feasibility Lead, use more. If you run low, contact support.
8. Feedback and help
- Thumbs up or down under each answer tells us what works. Add a reason on thumbs down.
- Report a problem in chat: tell any agent "I want to report a problem". It will open a support ticket for you.
- Web form: Contact support, or email support@ndiribho.com.
