You can teach how Answer Threads to behave by setting up Advice. During the initial setup of Answer Threads, some foundational pieces of Advice were likely added to get things started. But don’t worry – you can always add new Advice or adjust existing ones to fine-tune its behavior just how you want it.

As you monitor exchanges between Customers and the generative AI assistant, you may need to modify or enhance Advice.

Popular Advices include:

  • Response style types that suggest replies should be Clear, Succinct, Confident, Intelligent, Empowering, Helpful, Inclusive, Informative.

  • Tone to maintain a consistently friendly and welcoming tone to ensure customers feel valued and understood.

  • Voice to speak in active voice.

  • Response length to so responses are concise, limited to 100 words or less, and directly address the Customer's question in the first two sentences.

Write Advice clearly and concisely

Think about writing Advice similar to how you might write a rule. The title you provide for each piece of Advice is for internal organization only, it does not impact the assistant’s reply.Note that the order in which you add Advice does not influence the priority in which the AI assistant will evaluate guidance.
