How to Setup AI Agent

Welcome to your AI Agent setup journey! This guide will walk you through creating a virtual agent that represents your business professionally and handles calls intelligently.

Getting Started

Configure Your AI Agent

Begin by logging into your account portal, selecting "AI Agent" from the menu, and clicking "Add AI Agent".


Choose the version you want to set up. Voice Agent (v2) offers exclusive features that enable fine-tuning, extra integrations, and more!


Customize Your AI Agent's initial information

In the setup wizard, you'll create your agent's profile:

  1. Agent Name - Choose a unique name that represents your business (once used, this name cannot be reused)
  2. Extension - Assign a unique extension for your virtual agent
  3. Company Website - Enter your website URL to allow our system to automatically gather information about your business
  4. Description - Add internal notes about this agent (For your information only! this will not affect your AI Agent)
  5. Default Routing - Choose a fallback treatment for when the agent fails (default routing) 
  6. Greeting Prompt - Craft the greeting callers will hear when your AI Agent answers
  7. Voice Language, Voice - Choose a voice that represents your brand



Alert
Troubleshooting: Sample audio doesn't play
This may be due to a CSP (Content Security Policy) restriction. You can resolve it by adding a setting to PORTAL_CSP_MEDIA_ADDITIONS in Platform Settings.
Note: This process requires a scope higher than Office Manager.

Steps:
1. Navigate to Platform Settings (for Super User) or Configs (for Reseller).
2. Type "media" in the search bar.
3. Select PORTAL_CSP_MEDIA_ADDITIONS.

4. Click Add Config, then add the FQDN of the media source to the Value field.  You can also limit when this rule applies (e.g., to specific domains, scopes, or hosts) as needed.



After clicking "Save," our intelligent system will scan your website to build your agent's knowledge base automatically.
Info
Our system will pre-populate much of this information from your website, but you can refine everything to ensure complete accuracy. You will then see the following screen. Once this modal is closed, an edit page for the agent will be rendered; however, some input fields will remain empty until the agent creation step is complete.



Warning
Please note, there might be times that the AI Agent doesn't understand how to pronounce certain words or phrases. In the General Content you might need to tell it how to pronounce certain words. For Example, “Telware is pronounced tell-wear”

Configure your AI agent

Company Information

details about your business that callers frequently ask about. Your AI Agent will be prepared to answer questions using this information.



Services & Products

Add up to 20 services and 20 products with descriptions. Your AI Agent will be able to explain your offerings to callers, transfer them to appropriate team members, or provide additional information based on the caller's needs.



Business Hours

Set your operating schedule so your AI Agent knows when team members are available. Add special notes about lunch hours or after-hours availability.


Frequently Asked Questions

Enter up to 20 common questions with their answers to handle routine inquiries efficiently.


Team Directory

Add team members and their departments so your AI Agent can direct calls appropriately.


General Knowledge

This powerful section allows you to create custom responses and behaviors using "if/then" instructions. For example: "If someone asks about pricing, then explain our three-tier model..." In addition, our agent creation process automatically populates this field with miscellaneous information gathered from your website as follows:


Info

An example of a prompt: If a caller mentions having technical difficulties, connection problems, software errors, or needs help troubleshooting any product, then inform them our technical support team can assist, ask if they would like to be transferred, and route them to the Technical Support department at extension 2001.

When implemented, your AI Agent would recognize these triggers and respond with something like: "I understand you're experiencing technical issues. Our dedicated Technical Support team can help solve this problem. Would you like me to transfer you to them now?"



Company Specialties

Highlight what makes your business unique so your AI Agent can effectively communicate your competitive advantages.



Call Routing Rules

Create intelligent routing by associating keywords with specific team members or departments. For example, connecting words like "billing" or "accounting" to your finance person. Transfer by Name is also available.

Alert
    If you want to add more routes, you will have to save the first one before moving onto the second one.



Enable Automated Actions with Upgraded Plans

Take your AI Agent beyond call routing with powerful integrations available on upgraded plans, allowing callers to:

  • Schedule appointments
  • Request information
  • Submit support tickets
  • And more!

Flows

Comfort Messages
