Configure your first agent

Add your website, choose an agent, teach it your content and publish it.

This walks through setting up one website's agent from nothing to published. It takes about fifteen minutes if your website already says what you do.

#Add your website

  1. Open Websites and add your site's domain.
  2. The site opens on its Overview, with tabs for everything below.

#Choose the agent

Open the Agent tab and choose one of the ten agents. Ray is chosen to start with. Each has its own face, voice and way of talking; every one can do the same work. See Agent personalities.

#Teach it your content

Open Knowledge and add your website so its pages are read, and upload the documents customers ask about: price lists, policies, guides. The agent answers from what is published here. See Knowledge.

#Set its behaviour

Open Behaviour. Give it a name, role, tone and greeting, describe your business in the company guide, and write down the claims it must never make. Once your knowledge has enough text in it, each field can be drafted from it for you to edit. See Behaviour and instructions.

#Publish

Press Publish agent on Behaviour. Visitors only ever meet the published version, so you can change things and publish again when you are happy. Then test it and go live.
