Configuring Your Bot's Behaviour

Customise your bot's name, greeting, tone, language, response delay, and conversation flow.

Bot Configuration

Customise how your chatbot behaves, sounds, and interacts with customers.

Bot Name & Persona

Go to Settings → Bot → Persona:

  • Bot Name — Shown in greetings (e.g., "Hi! I'm Vivvy, your ViViDlyPro assistant.")
  • Tone — Choose Formal, Friendly, or Professional
  • Business Context — A brief description of your business the AI uses for context

Greeting Messages

Set separate greeting messages for:

  • First-time contact — When a customer messages you for the first time
  • Returning customer — When a known customer returns
  • After-hours — When a customer messages outside of business hours

Business Hours Setting

In Settings → Bot → Business Hours, set your operating hours. Outside these hours, the bot can:

  1. Continue replying normally (default)
  2. Send an after-hours message and stop replying
  3. Send an after-hours message but still try to answer common questions

Response Delay

Add a small artificial delay (1–5 seconds) to make the bot feel more human-like. Configure this in Settings → Bot → Response Delay.

Fallback Message

When the bot can't find a relevant answer in the Knowledge Base, it sends a fallback message. Customise this in Settings → Bot → Fallback Message.

Example fallback: *"I don't have information about that right now. Please call us at +91 888 188 7741 or email vividlyapp.in@gmail.com and our team will help you."*

Language Settings

In Settings → Bot → Language:

  • Primary Language: The default language for system messages and greetings
  • Multi-language Mode: Enable to let the bot auto-detect and match the customer's language from your Knowledge Base
