Bot name, messages, guardrails, pause-when-agent-active, and credit usage.
Available on Growth and Enterprise under Knowledge → AI & Copilot.
Enable the bot
Open the AI bot tab.
Turn the bot on and set Bot name (customers see this in the widget).
Configure Greeting, Handoff message, and No-answer message.
Set Max answers per conversation to avoid endless bot loops.
Guardrails
Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
Grounded answers only | Answers only from your knowledge |
Redact personal data | Masks sensitive data before model calls |
Pause when a teammate is active | Bot steps back when a human is assigned or has replied |
Custom instructions
Use Custom instructions for tone (formal vs friendly), topics to avoid, and when to hand off—for example billing disputes or legal requests.
Credits
AI usage draws from monthly AI credits (workspace pool plus per-seat allowance on Growth). Monitor Usage and set a Monthly budget cap if needed.
Widget experience
While the bot thinks, visitors see staged progress (Checking, Searching, Writing). When you join, they see your photo and a has taken over the chat notice.
