Quick guide to using the ChatPlace AI Agent

1. General principle of how the AI Agent works

The ChatPlace AI Agent is an intelligent system that functions like a full-fledged human manager: responds to clients, analyzes messages, reads multimedia, remembers information, passes requests to operators, works 24/7.

The agent is not a single model — it's a complex system combining multiple neural networks:

  • Main model: Claude Sonnet 4.5

  • Backup / auxiliary models: ChatGPT-5, ChatGPT-4o

  • Specialized models: voice recognition, image analysis, video and text interpretation

  • Internal fine-tuning algorithms

This architecture ensures:

  • Stable performance under any load

  • Deep understanding of complex content

  • Long-term context retention

  • Fast and natural human-like responses

  • Ability to operate like a real employee

If the main model is overloaded (approx. 1% of cases), the agent automatically switches to ChatGPT-5 — users won’t notice the difference.


2. Why the AI package costs $25 on the Pro Plan and why AI requests are billed separately

The cost includes not just access to a language model, but support for the entire multimodal AI system.

The AI Agent:

  • Works 24/7

  • Processes text, photos, videos, voice messages, and video notes

  • Reads client profiles (posts, bio, content)

  • Analyzes entire message history

  • Auto-learns from context

  • Sends requests to operators

  • Can save variables into your CRM

  • Uses multiple models simultaneously

We collaborated with engineers from Anthropic (creators of Claude) to create one of the smartest communication agents on the market.

Every AI response is a computational operation (tokens). Token costs are high — we cover the majority of this cost ourselves. That’s why:

  • 2000 AI requests are included in the package

  • each additional 1000 requests costs $15. On Premium — $10

At the moment, 1 AI response costs around $0.0165, one of the lowest prices worldwide for multimodal systems of this level. The agent continues to improve — more capabilities and intelligence are added regularly.

We built the system so it requires no technical skills — setup in a few clicks, but inside is a massive computational infrastructure.


3. Supported languages & voice recognition

The agent understands all major world languages, including:

  • Text

  • Voice messages

  • Video notes with speech

  • Vixed messages

  • Translations

It automatically replies in the same language the client uses. If needed, you can explicitly specify in the rules:

  • Which language to use

  • Communication style

  • Whether to ignore the client’s language and always respond in a given one


4. How to write an effective Communication rule (Prompt)

The Communication rule determines exactly how the AI Agent behaves. Its purpose is to ensure the agent:

  • Follows your business processes

  • Avoids mistakes

  • Operates strictly within your scenarios

A good prompt must include:

  • Communication style (friendly/formal, “you” vs “thou”)

  • How the agent introduces itself

  • Which language to use

  • How to handle pricing questions

  • How to process order requests

  • Which data to save into variables

  • Which information to send to operators

  • Forbidden topics

  • Sales behavior

  • Clarifying question logic

  • Handling spam

  • When a dialogue is considered “complete”

The more detailed — the better the results.

If you cannot write a proper prompt, write your rules in free form and ask any AI model to convert it into a well-structured prompt.


5. Sending data to an operator

The agent can automatically forward client data to an operator based on your rules. It can send:

  • Name

  • Phone

  • Email

  • Profile link

  • Conversation history

  • Inquiry text

  • Any extracted information

  • Any variables saved during the dialogue

The agent sends data only in the cases that you specified. For example:

  • If the client wants a consultation → send a request.

  • If they ask for a callback → send their number.

  • If they want to buy → notify the sales manager.

  • If it’s a VIP client → always notify the operator.

All logic is customizable.


6. Why the Agent may stop responding

There are several logical reasons:

  1. The agent detected spam or meaningless messages — If a client sends random text or repeated messages, the agent goes into “protection mode” to avoid wasting tokens.

  2. The dialogue is logically complete — If a client writes: “ok”, “got it”, “thanks” — the agent won’t reply.

  3. The agent completed its task and forwarded data to an operator.

  4. The agent avoids unnecessary token usage.

  5. Rare technical delays (<1%). Due to temporary third-party API load.

👉 Important: The agent always resumes the conversation if the client sends meaningful input again.


7. Forbidden topics & censorship

There is no external censorship. But you can configure your own forbidden topics:

  • Politics

  • Medicine

  • Legal advice

  • Cryptocurrency

  • Adult topics

In such cases, the agent replies neutrally:

“Unfortunately, I can't discuss this topic, but I can help with something else.”


8. Where to store prices, policies, and critical information

Always store important data in the Communication Rule, NOT in the Knowledge Base. The reason:

  • The KB contains many topics; critical data may get lost

  • Updating them requires manual searching

  • The agent may rephrase or distort numeric values

  • The KB is not designed for sensitive information

Do NOT store prices or policies in:

  • the knowledge base

  • analyzed Instagram posts

  • large PDF files

The Communication rule overrides all other sources and remains precise.


9. Can the Agent trigger automations?

The agent does not directly start automations (to avoid conflicts). However, it can give the user a trigger phrase, for example:

“If you want to proceed with the order, type: PAYMENT.”

When the client sends the trigger — the automation starts.


10. Client follow-up (re-engagement)

The agent can politely follow up with clients:

  • Ask if they managed to resolve their issue

  • Remind them about an earlier conversation

  • Return to a topic

  • Guide the dialogue to completion

It only does this when it detects real interest — it never spams uninterested users.


11. Working with multimedia

The agent processes:

  • Voice notes

  • Video notes

  • Photos

  • Screenshots

  • Uploaded PDFs

  • Stories

  • Comments

It reads text on images, understands context, analyzes stories, and responds meaningfully.


12. How the agent learns

It uses every available source:

  • Knowledge base (account scan, files, text)

  • Communication rule (primary logic)

  • Conversation fine-tuning (if enabled)

  • Client messages

  • CRM variables

  • Dialogue history

  • Instagram profile data

  • Reactions, comments, stories

  • Behavioral patterns

It adapts to your communication style and remembers important topics automatically.


13. Updating the knowledge base

There are three ways:

1. Instagram/TikTok account scan — Reads:

  • posts

  • profile bio

  • writing style

  • existing conversations

2. File upload — Supports:

  • PDF

  • DOCX

  • XLS

  • Up to 30 MB each.

3. Manual text input — The KB updates instantly, and the agent begins using new information immediately.


14. Difference between Communication rule and Knowledge base

Knowledge base = factual reference

  • Products

  • Delivery terms

  • Service descriptions

  • Specifications

Communication rule = the brain

  • Style

  • Behavior

  • Decision logic

  • Variable saving

  • Sales scripts

  • Operator handoff rules

If the two conflict — the Communication Rule always wins.


15. Frequently asked questions

1. Does the agent reply to comments? 

Yes.

2. Does the agent reply to stories?

Yes.

3. Can the agent see story content?

Yes. (All three options are configurable in settings.)

4. Can it write in Direct after a comment?

Yes — one message (Instagram limitation).

If the user replies to that message, the agent continues normally.

5. Does it conflict with automations?

No — automation triggers have priority.

You can also configure ignore-windows for automations.

6. Can it work alongside a human operator?

Yes — ideally set rules for when the agent freezes if an operator responds.


16. Saving client data & creating variables

This is one of the strongest features. The agent sees:

  • Client name

  • Username

  • Profile link

  • Tags

  • Variables

  • Message history

  • Instagram profile data

  • Subscription status

  • Previous conversations

The agent can:

  • Save values into variables

  • Create new variables automatically

  • Extract data based on your rules

  • Detect key phrases (“my name is…”, “my number is…”)

  • Store values for further processing

  • Reuse variables in the dialogue

Examples:

  • “If the client gives a name — save to client_name.”

  • “If the client writes a phone number — save to phone.”

  • “If the client mentions a city — create client_city.”

  • “If the client is subscribed — set is_follower = yes.”

  • “If the client wants a consultation — send operator name, number, profile, and chat history.”


17. Best practices

  • Check the Unanswered section during the first 3 days

  • Regularly update the Knowledge Base

  • Never store critical data in the KB — only in the Communication Rule

  • Test every change

  • Use follow-ups when needed

  • Enable automatic data transfer to operators
