Identity, voice and language

The Identity tab is who the agent is on the phone: its name, voice and manner. A live preview shows exactly what the agent is told.

Name and voice

  • Name is the first name it introduces itself with.
  • Gender picks its voice: an Australian woman's or man's voice from Fish Audio.
  • Role is an optional job title, such as “health cover specialist”.

Admins can set a particular Fish Audio voice under “advanced” in Settings, plus a backup voice used if the main one fails mid-call.

Anything else is free text for phrases it uses or how it should sound. The honesty and conduct rules always win over personality.

Hear a preview

Hear a preview plays the agent answering a sample caller (a general enquiry, a price question, or “not interested”) in its voice, using the settings on screen, saved or not. It starts in about half a second.

How it talks

  • It speaks everyday Australian English with no put-on slang (no "G'day" or "mate").
  • It reacts the way people do ("Got it," "Fair enough") while it thinks, so there's no dead air.
  • Female agents react in words only ("Okay," "Right," "Sure,"), never "um" or "ah".
  • It introduces itself by name and company and never opens by saying it's an AI, but it always says so if asked.

Other languages

Agents can hold calls in Mandarin, Arabic, Vietnamese, Cantonese, Punjabi, Greek, Italian, Filipino, Hindi, Spanish, Korean, Japanese, Indonesian, Thai, French, German, Portuguese or Turkish. Set the language through the Ask AI assistant or the API. The agent then speaks and listens only in that language; call summaries stay in English.
