Chat bots

Custom Designer includes two chat agents you configure per shop. They share your catalog, FAQs, and orders — they are not a generic chatbot.

Customer widget

Embed this on your website. Visitors can:

  • Ask FAQs and shop policies you configure
  • Browse My Catalog
  • Look up their orders after they confirm email
  • Optionally open a quote when you allow it

Staff copy an iframe snippet from Settings → Chat (Customer widget tab). Paste it on a contact, quote, or design page.

Staff assistant

Use this inside Custom Designer or the Gmail / Google Voice sidecar. It can:

  • Find a client
  • List recent orders
  • Duplicate the last job
  • Mint approval and Quick Quote links

Configure it on the same Chat settings page, Staff assistant tab.

How to set it up

  1. Open Settings → Chat.
  2. Pick Customer widget or Staff assistant.
  3. Edit the system prompt, enable tools, add FAQs, and save.
  4. Copy the iframe snippet and paste it on your site (customer) or keep the assistant in-app / Gmail (staff).

The Chrome extension can open the staff assistant from Gmail without a separate snippet. See Gmail & Voice extension.

Tips

  • Keep write tools off on the public widget unless you want it creating quotes.
  • Require email before order lookup so one visitor cannot see another customer’s jobs.
  • Put shop hours, turnaround, and pickup rules in company info / FAQs so answers stay consistent.
