1) Define tone and rules
Configure how the agent should respond.
SupportHQ helps your agent respond in your tone and follow guardrails. When it can't resolve safely, it escalates to your team, so customers always get the right answer.
Keep responses consistent with your policies.
Configure how your agent communicates.
Responses reference your knowledge base.
The agent escalates when human judgment is required.
Support automation doesn't help if answers are off-brand or inaccurate. SupportHQ is designed to keep your agent grounded in your content and aligned with your communication style.
How it works
A simple process.
Configure how the agent should respond.
Use your knowledge base so answers stay accurate.
Resolve routinely, escalate safely when needed.
In depth
Roles, tone, per-channel rules, and built-in guardrails. You describe the behavior in plain English.
Start from a role: support agent, sales agent, onboarding agent, or internal helpdesk agent. SupportHQ shapes the persona, tone, and escalation rules around it. Then adjust the voice to match how your team writes, from formal to friendly.
Tune how hard the agent reasons per project, from fast replies to careful ones on the questions that matter most.
The agent answers only from content you approved. Guardrails against making things up and against prompt injection (attempts to talk the agent out of its instructions, or into revealing them) ship with the platform. You do not write or maintain those guardrails.
Every reply is auditable. The exact instructions behind each answer are stored, so if something looks off you can see exactly what the agent was told. More on grounding in your knowledge base.
A website widget is one-to-one, so the agent should answer. A Discord server or Telegram group is not, so it should stay quiet until it is being asked. Write those rules in plain English, per channel: reply when mentioned, reply to product questions, ignore general chat.
Read when your AI agent should stay quiet for rules that work in real communities.
Staying on brand includes knowing what not to say. When a question is out of scope, sensitive, or beyond the knowledge base, the agent says so and brings in a person, with a written reason and summary. It never improvises a policy.
The moment a teammate replies, the agent steps back on that thread. See human handoff.
Pick an agent role (support, sales, onboarding, internal helpdesk) and adjust the persona and voice. You describe how you want it to sound in plain English. No prompt engineering.
No. It answers only from approved content, and guardrails against making things up ship with the platform. When it does not know, it says so and escalates.
Prompt-injection defense is built in. The agent is built to resist attempts to talk it out of its instructions or into revealing them.
Yes. Rules are written per channel in plain English, so the agent can answer everything on your site but stay quiet in a Discord server until it is mentioned or asked a product question.
Yes. The exact instructions behind each answer are stored, so every reply is auditable.
