AI Agents
AI Agents Overview
Understanding personas, workflows, memory, and user data configuration
The AI Agents section is where you configure how your AI support agent behaves and interacts with customers.
What Are AI Agents?
AI Agents (also called Personas) are configurations that define your AI's personality, knowledge access, and behavior. Think of them as different "personalities" your AI can adopt.
Key Components
Personas
Personas define how your AI communicates:
- Tone - Friendly, professional, casual
- Response style - Concise or detailed
- Behavior settings - Escalation thresholds, language complexity
- Custom instructions - Business-specific rules
You can have multiple personas for different use cases.
Workflows
Workflows automate actions based on conversations:
- Webhooks - Send data to external systems
- Escalation - Hand off to human support
- Tags - Automatically categorize conversations
Memory
Memory lets your AI remember information about returning customers:
- Preferences - How they like to be addressed
- History - Past issues or purchases
- Context - Business-specific data
User Data
User Data (Context Schemas) inject customer information into conversations:
- Customer attributes - Name, plan, status
- Session data - Current page, cart contents
- Custom fields - Business-specific information
When to Use Multiple Personas
Common reasons to create multiple personas:
Different Departments
- Sales persona - Upbeat, benefits-focused
- Support persona - Patient, solution-oriented
- Technical persona - Detailed, precise
Different Products
- Product A support - Access to Product A docs
- Product B support - Access to Product B docs
Different Audiences
- Consumer persona - Friendly, simple language
- Enterprise persona - Professional, detailed
