At the end of every week that has had at least one feature release, we'll send you an email on Friday at 11 a.m. Eastern to let you know about our last few releases.
Your bot now automatically categorizes conversations with similar customer inquiries and creates topics to categorize them into, which you can then manage as required.
For more information, see our Help Docs for generative AI Agents and scripted bots.
Got a lot of articles on your Knowledge page? You can now search by article name, or apply filters to find articles more easily.
For more information, see our Help Docs for generative AI Agents and scripted bots.
We've added the ability to search for individual blocks in the Action Apps section of your block drawer. Previously, you could only search for all Action App blocks at once by searching for <block:action_integration>, but now you can search for specific Action App blocks (e.g., you can find all of your Answers that contain the Answer Utilities block by searching for <block:action_integration:answer-utilities>).
For a list of block names you can search by, see Search by Answer block.
We have increased the maximum number of pieces of Guidance you can create per AI Agent to 40.
For more information, see Customize your bot's generative content with Guidance.
If you're transitioning from using one bot to another, you can now roll out your second bot progressively, specifying what percentage of customers you'd like to see each of your bots, or no bot at all.
For more information, see Control how many users see your bot.
In addition to Google's speaking voices, you can now choose one of OpenAI's voices for your bot to use with your callers.
For information, including differences between how Google and OpenAI voices behave, see Choose a speaking voice for your bot.
Your bot is now able to receive and transfer phone calls using a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) address rather than using a phone number.
You can now use a different phone number to send and receive SMS messages during voice conversations than the phone number that your bot uses to receive phone calls.
For more information, see Set up your Twilio account.
We've added the Smart Capture block, which sends the caller's response to an external language processing service to help understand what they said and save a more accurate output.
For more information, see Use the Smart Capture block to intelligently capture callers' responses.
We've released the Knowledge API, which you can use in conjunction with knowledge base scraper integrations to upload your help content into your AI Agent or bot. Then, depending on whether you have a generative AI Agent or scripted bot, it can either use that content to generate entire responses to chatters or suggest relevant content.
