What is a Persona?

A persona is an AI-powered chatbot with a defined personality, knowledge base, and set of rules. When a customer messages your page, the persona can respond naturally based on its configuration.

Creating a Persona

  1. Click Create Persona
  2. Configure the persona:
    • Name -- A label for your reference (e.g., "Friendly Sales Rep")
    • Personality -- Describe the tone and style (e.g., "Professional but warm, uses first names")
    • Knowledge -- What the persona knows about your business (products, services, hours, policies)
    • Instructions -- Rules for behavior (e.g., "Always suggest booking a call for pricing questions")
  3. Assign the persona to one or more connected pages
  4. Click Save

How Personas Respond

When a customer sends a message:

  1. The AI reads the conversation history for context
  2. It applies the persona's personality and knowledge
  3. It generates a response that sounds natural and on-brand
  4. The response is sent to the customer

Managing Personas

  • Edit -- Update a persona's personality, knowledge, or page assignments
  • Disable -- Turn off a persona temporarily without deleting it
  • Delete -- Remove the persona permanently
