Creating a Conversational AI Script

From the Dashboard, click on Apps and select Conversational AI from the drop down.

Click on the Add Conversational AI button.

Control Panel Section will open.

Type the Script Name of this Conversational AI Script

Right-click on the Blue Element Box Question and click on the Edit Option.

Edit Box Section will appear. Configure the following.

Start Point - This will be the start point of the Conversational AI.
Answering Machine Detection - If this option is On, the system will filter Answering Machine Calls. (Turned Off by default)
Name: Type a descriptive name for this Question.
Audio Sensitivity: This section is the ability of the system to detect the customer's voice.
- If the customer's audio has a lot of background noise, Audio Sensitivity should be lower to filter out background noise.
Speech Timeout - This where we set how long the system will listen for a reply before executing an action.
- Example scenario: If we set the speech timeout to 500ms (5sec) and the person talked for 10 seconds, the system will only listen for the first 5 seconds of what the person said.
Audio File: This section is where we select the Audio Message that customer will hear. The audio file usually contains instructions on what the customer will say or do.
Skip Speech Detection - If this feature is ON, the system will play the audio recording set on the question and will route straight to the destination after the audio recording played.
Speech Input Delay: Determines how soon a customer can respond to the question.
- For example, we set the delay to 5 seconds. When the customer hears the audio message and responds before 5 seconds, the system won't be able to detect his/her response. He/She needs to wait 5 seconds before they can react.
- If we set the delay to "Delay Until Audio is Played," the customer won't be able to respond until he finishes the entire message.

Invalid Response Audio Sensitivity: This section is the ability of the system to detect if the customer responded with an invalid response.
- If the customer's audio has a lot of background noise, Audio Sensitivity should be lower to filter out background noise.
Invalid Response Speech Timeout - This where we set how long the system will listen to determine if the response is valid or not. If the answer is invalid, it will trigger the Invalid actions.
- Example scenario: If we set the speech timeout to 500ms (5sec) and customer talked for 10 seconds, the system will only listen for the first 5 seconds of what the customer said and determined if its a valid response or not.
Max Invalid Response - This is where we the set limit of Invalid Responses before executing the Invalid Response Actions.
Invalid Responses - Select the audio file that will play if the customer responded with an invalid response.
Invalid Destination - Select a destination where you want to send the call if the customer responded with an invalid response. (Click View button to see the Destination)

Example Destination Options:

Campaigns - Select a campaign where the call will be transferred to any available agent on that campaign.

No Response Audio Sensitivity: This section is the ability of the system to detect if the customer responds or not.
- If the customers audio has a lot of background noise, Audio Sensitivity should be lower to filter out background noise.
No Response Speech Timeout - This where we set how long the system will listen to determine if there is a response or not.
- Example scenario: If we set speech timeout to 500ms (5sec), the system will decide after 5 seconds if the call is considered No Response.
No Response Timeout - After validating that the call is a No Response, this section is where we set how long the system will wait before executing the no response actions.
- Example scenario: If we set No Response Timeout to 10 seconds, and the call is already considered a No Response, the system will trigger the No Response actions after 10 seconds.
Max No Response - This is where we the set limit of no response instances before routing the call to the No Response Destination Section
No Response Audios - Select the audio file that will play if the customer did not respond.
No Response Destination - Select a destination where you want to send the call if no response detected. (Click View button to see the Destination)
