Train your agent from real corrections

Your agent won't nail every answer on day one. When it gets one wrong, fix it once — and it learns. Here's the loop: edit the reply, review the proposed change, approve.

Why training

Your agent starts good and gets better. It won't nail every answer on day one — but every time you correct one, it learns. Not by magic: you fix a reply, the agent proposes a change to its own instructions, and you approve it. Nothing changes behind your back.

This is how it goes from “mostly right” to “sounds exactly like us.” A handful of corrections in the first weeks teaches the agent the things you'd never think to write down.

Fix an answer

See an answer that's a little off — in Preview, or in a real conversation? Under the agent's reply there's an Edit response button. That's where you launch it.

The number was disconnected because the linked WhatsApp device stopped being used. To reconnect: go to Settings → Channels, remove the old link and re-add the number.

You're not just editing this one chat. Under the hood, your correction becomes a training proposal — the agent's suggestion for how to answer this kind of question from now on.

Review & approve

Every correction lands in the Training tab as a proposal, waiting for your OK. Nothing touches the live agent until you approve it.

The Training tab, up top — the red number is how many proposals are waiting for you.

After each chat the agent flags answers it could have given better and proposes a precise fix. Approve one and your agent gets smarter.

Why it happened
The agent had no rule about the return policy, so it hedged instead of answering.

Approving applies the changes to the agent's instructions instantly.
RejectApprove & apply
Approve and the change applies to the agent's instructions instantly — everywhere, not just this chat.

Good training habits

A few habits keep training quick and worth it:

  • Fix real answers, not hypotheticals — correct what the agent actually said
  • Approve in small batches — a few a week keeps it sharp
  • Read the “why” — it tells you if it's a missing rule, a wrong fact, or a tone slip
  • Trust it to generalize — one good correction covers many similar questions
You don't need to catch everything: a handful of corrections in the first weeks does most of the work. After that it's the occasional tune-up.
