Voice Agent
Configure how your AI sounds and represents your business
Your voice agent is the personality customers hear when they call. The voice, tone, and conversational style should feel like a natural extension of your brand—professional where you're professional, warm where you're warm, direct where you're direct. This is how you make automated communication feel intentional rather than generic.
Voice Selection
The voice your customers hear matters more than you might expect. A law firm and a surf shop shouldn't sound the same. We offer several voice options ranging from professional and authoritative to friendly and conversational, and you can adjust the speaking pace to match your typical caller profile.
We support 42+ languages. Contact support for non-English voice options.
Personality Settings
Fine-tune how your agent communicates:
Formality Level
| Setting | Best For | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Formal | Law firms, medical offices | "Good afternoon, thank you for calling..." |
| Professional | Most businesses | "Hi there, thanks for calling..." |
| Casual | Creative agencies, retail | "Hey! What's up?" |
Speaking Speed
Adjust the pace to match your customers:
- Slow: Ideal for complex services or elderly customers
- Normal: Works for most situations
- Fast: Good for quick transactions or younger audiences
Empathy Level
How emotionally responsive your agent should be:
- High: Acknowledges feelings, offers sympathy ("I'm so sorry to hear that...")
- Medium: Balanced acknowledgment
- Low: Focused, efficient, task-oriented
Conversation Rules
