After creating your Chat AI Agent, you can customize various settings to optimize performance, align with your brand voice, and ensure seamless customer experiences.


Accessing Agent Settings

  1. Navigate to AI Agents & Bots in the navbar

Configuration Options

1. Prompt

The system prompt is the foundation of your AI agent's behavior. It defines:

  • Role: Who the AI is (e.g., "You are a helpful sales assistant...")

  • Goal: Whats the Goal of the AI (e.g., "Your goal is to qualify leads...")

  • Instructions: What the AI should or shouldn't do

  • Knowledge Scope: What information the AI has access to

Best Practices:

  • Keep the prompt clear and specific

  • Include examples of desired responses

  • Define boundaries (what not to answer)

  • Update regularly based on customer interactions


2. Knowledge Base Management

Add supplementary information to enhance your AI's knowledge:

Sources:

  • Website URLs (auto-scraped during setup)

  • Uploaded documents (PDFs, Word docs)

Managing Knowledge:

  • Add new information as products/services evolve

  • Remove outdated content

  • Organize by categories for better retrieval
