Chat Context #

Influence the tone of voice to match your brand. The language you use to write these descriptions will control which language the Assistant communicates in.

Store description #

This text teaches the Chat how to perceive your webshop. It will be used as a reference when talking to customers.

A good store description contains:

  • The name of your store
  • An overview of the products you sell
  • The elevator pitch for your store

A good store description could be: “Our Store name is Awesome Store. We sell supplements, vitamins, protein powder and other essential supplements for staying healthy. We aim to be the primary advisor for senior supplements in the nordics. Our catalogue is large and we have very competitive prices.”

Welcome message #

This is the first message visitors see when they open the Chat window.

A welcome message could be: “Welcome to our store! I am a friendly AI assistant that can answer most of your questions. I am still learning, so I might make mistakes. How can I help you?”

This info-block will be shown in the Chat, just over the input-field.

It’s meant to ensure that visitors can see and agree to your terms and conditions before they use the Chat.

Write your own consent message that includes links to your terms of service which can be done with HTML tags:

By messaging the AI assistant, you agree to our <a href="https://example.com/terms">Terms</a> and have read our <a href="https://example.com/privacy">Privacy Policy</a>.
