Customizing Templates

After creating an agent from a template:

  1. Edit the system prompt — Customize with your company name, products, and policies.
  2. Add knowledge — Upload your FAQs, product docs, and training materials.
  3. Configure tools — Add API keys and connect to your specific services.
  4. Set up voice — Choose a voice that matches your brand.
  5. Test — Run test conversations to verify behavior.

Example: Customizing the Support Template

  Template prompt:
  "You are a customer support agent for [Company Name]."

  Customized:
+ "You are a customer support agent for Acme Corp.
+  Our products include the Widget Pro ($49.99) and
+  Widget Enterprise ($199.99). Our return policy is
+  30 days with original receipt."

Creating Custom Templates

If you've built an agent configuration that you want to reuse:

  1. Go to your agent's settings.
  2. Click Save as Template.
  3. Give it a name, description, and category.
  4. The template is saved to your account for reuse.

Custom templates are private to your organization unless published.

Best Practices

  • Start with a template, don't start from scratch — Templates embody best practices for each use case.
  • Test before deploying — Always run test conversations to verify the template works for your business.
  • Add your knowledge base — Templates provide the structure; your knowledge provides the substance.
  • Iterate on the prompt — The template prompt is a starting point. Refine it based on real conversations.
  • Save successful configurations — When you've dialed in a great agent, save it as a template for your team.
