Tuning Your AI Voice Agent

Tuning an Existing Voice Agent

Once your AI Voice Agent is live, you can keep refining it. Add knowledge so it can answer specific questions, enable call transfer to a human, change its prompt, manage phone numbers, or delete it entirely. Available on the Enterprise plan.

Add Knowledge to Your Agent

The Knowledge Base lets your agent answer questions using your own content. The agent will reference this information during conversations.

1

Open the Knowledge Base Tab

From the agent's edit page, click Knowledge Base in the left sidebar.

2

Choose a Source Type

Under Add Knowledge, pick File, URL, or Text.

File

Upload a document such as a service brochure, FAQ, or policy PDF.

URL

Add a public web page — for example, your pricing or service area page.

Text

Paste content directly — useful for short answers, scripts, or reference notes.

3

Give It a Name and Add It

Enter a name you'll recognize, provide the content, and click the add button. The new item appears in the list above with a badge showing its source type.

💡

Knowledge Base Limits

Each agent can hold up to 25 knowledge base items. The current count is shown next to the section heading. To free up space, click the trash icon next to any item to remove it.


Configure Call Features

Call Features control what the agent is allowed to do during a phone call. Open the Tools & Capabilities tab on the agent's edit page.

End Call

Lets the agent hang up automatically when the conversation is complete.

#

Keypad / DTMF

Lets the agent send touch tones — useful when navigating an external IVR after a transfer.

Call Transfer

Lets the agent transfer the call to a phone number when needed.

Setting Up Call Transfer

When you toggle Call Transfer on, two extra fields appear:

1

Enter the Transfer Number

The phone number callers will be sent to in international format — for example, +14155551234.

2

Describe When to Transfer

Tell the agent the situation in which to transfer — for example, "Transfer when the caller asks to speak to a human agent" or "Transfer when the caller mentions an emergency". The agent uses this description to decide if a transfer is appropriate.


Edit the Prompt Later

You can change any of the agent's instructions after it's live.

1

Open the Prompt Tab

From the agent's edit page, click the Prompt tab in the left sidebar.

2

Update Any Section

Change the role, personality, speaking style, business context, specific instructions, or boundaries — same fields as the create wizard.

3

Save Your Changes

Click Save. Your changes apply to all calls handled by the agent from that point forward.


Manage Phone Numbers

You can assign more numbers to an agent or remove ones you no longer want it to handle. Open the Phone Numbers tab.

Assign Another Number

Pick a number from the Assign a Number dropdown and click Assign.

Unassign a Number

Click the X icon next to any assigned number, then confirm. The number stops routing to this agent and becomes available for other destinations.


Delete an Agent

If you no longer need a voice agent, you can remove it permanently.

1

Open the Agent's Edit Page

Navigate to Features > Voice Agents and click the agent you want to delete.

2

Click Delete Agent

The Delete Agent button is at the bottom of the left sidebar. You'll be asked to confirm before the deletion goes through.

Deletion Is Permanent

Deleting an agent removes its prompt, knowledge base, and configuration, and unassigns any phone numbers attached to it. Those phone numbers stay in your account and can be routed to a different destination.

💡

Make Small Changes Often

The fastest way to get a better agent is to listen to a few real calls, then update the knowledge base, boundaries, or specific instructions to handle anything the agent missed. You don't have to get it perfect on day one.
