Skip to main contentStyle defines how the AI communicates—tone, voice, formatting, and phrasing. It distinguishes between what the AI says (Knowledge), when it says it (Rules), and how it delivers messages. Style applies to every outgoing message across all topics, maintaining consistent brand voice.
What Goes in Style?
- Preferred tone (e.g., warm, friendly, concise, professional)
- Specific phrasing conventions (e.g., first-person plural: “We’d love to help”)
- Formatting rules (e.g., bullet points for step-by-step instructions)
- Emoji usage or restrictions
- Language preferences or regional variants (e.g., “flat” vs. “apartment”)
Where to Find Style
Navigate to: Agent Hub > Agents > select an Agent > Populate your Style under Instructions
From here, define how your AI should sound and maintain communication style when interacting with users. Changes apply only to the selected inbox. Clear Style definitions help the AI speak consistently and on-brand.
Good Style Examples
- Use bullet points for multi-step instructions
- Write in warm, professional tone—avoid slang or overly casual language
- Use first-person plural: “we” instead of “I”
- Add celebratory emojis only for thank-you or celebration messages
- Limit message length to 3 short paragraphs maximum
These instructions are measurable, specific, and easy for the AI to follow consistently.
What Not to Include
- Facts about stakeholder or contact - use Knowledge
- Conditional instructions - use Rules
- Prohibitions or safety restrictions - use Guardrails
