Welcome Messages and Suggestions

The first message a visitor encounters sets the trajectory for the entire interaction. In this guide, learn how to configure greeting copy, quick-reply suggestion chips, and assistant headers.


Welcome Greeting Configuration

  1. Navigate to Designer → Messages & Suggestions.
  2. In the Welcome Message field, enter the introductory note the assistant shares when the widget expands.
  3. Full Markdown syntax is supported (bold, italic, emoji, hyperlinks).

High-Converting Welcome Templates

Hello there! 👋 I am your digital shopping assistant.

Suggested Questions (Prompt Chips)

1. "What are your enterprise pricing tiers?"
2. "How does the 14-day free trial work?"
3. "I want to talk to a human agent"

When a visitor clicks a chip, that prompt is submitted automatically, overcoming initial typing friction and driving engagement immediately.

  • Status Subtitle: e.g. Usually replies in 2 seconds or Available 24/7.
