This guide walks you through each AI Chatbot setting available in your Chattrik dashboard.

Step 2: Configure Your AI Bot

The first tab is AI Bot, where you can enable and configure your chatbot.

Within this tab, you can:

  • Enable or disable the AI Bot.
  • Choose between Strict Mode and Smart Mode.
  • Enable Google Calendar integration.
  • Enable the Exit Intent message.
Understanding AI Modes
Strict Mode

In Strict Mode, the AI responds using the exact information available in your uploaded knowledge base. Responses remain consistent with your provided content without changing the wording.

Smart Mode

In Smart Mode, the AI can generate responses based on your knowledge base while also using its own language processing capabilities. This allows for more natural and varied responses, but may not always match your exact content.

Google Calendar Integration

Enable Google Calendar if you want your AI Bot to access your connected calendar for scheduling-related interactions.

Exit Intent Message

The Exit Intent feature allows you to display a final message when a visitor is about to close the chat window. This provides one last opportunity to engage visitors before they leave. A data table showing existing roles like Administrator, Agent, and Admin with description columns.

Open the Knowledge Base tab.

This section allows you to train your AI by uploading your business FAQs and knowledge documents.

Here you can:

  • Upload your FAQ document.
  • Add new business information.
  • Edit existing FAQs whenever your business information changes.

Step 6: Configure AI Response Timeout

Open the Response Timeout tab.

This setting determines how long Chattrik waits before the AI Bot takes over a conversation when no support agent is available.

Simply choose the preferred response timeout that best matches your support workflow.

A properly configured timeout ensures visitors receive timely assistance while still giving your support team enough time to respond whenever agents are available.
