[ES] Frequently Asked Questions

[ES] Bob ingests content from your approved sources — your website, policy documents, and materials you provide. Bob doesn't scrape the internet or make things up. Everything Bob knows comes directly from what you've approved.

[ES] Initial setup typically takes a few days. Bob crawls your website and processes any documents you provide. We then generate an ingestion report showing what Bob learned and any gaps that might need additional content.

[ES] Yes. You can add new documents, update policies, and refresh website content. Bob will re-learn from your updated sources. Each update generates a report showing what changed.

[ES] Bob can identify knowledge gaps (questions customers ask that Bob can't answer), but Bob doesn't automatically add information from conversations. Any new knowledge must be approved by you first.

[ES] Bob refuses safely rather than guessing. When a question falls outside your approved content, Bob acknowledges the limitation and offers to connect the customer with your team or capture a callback request.

[ES] Bob is designed to respond only from your approved content. When Bob doesn't have information, Bob says so. This is different from generic chatbots that might guess or hallucinate answers.

[ES] Every response can be traced back to the source content it was based on. You can review conversation logs and see which documents Bob referenced for each answer.

[ES] Website chat [ES] is live today. [ES] Voice [ES] on your site is in beta. [ES] Your business phone line [ES] (and SMS/WhatsApp) is on our roadmap—we are targeting phone integration in Q2 2026; check [ES] Proof Center [ES] for the latest honest status. When phone goes live for your account, the goal is the same governed Bob—not a separate script—via integrations such as Twilio or Vonage where you enable them.

[ES] Yes. Bob can escalate to your team based on criteria you define. For urgent issues, complex questions, or customer request, Bob will route to a human and capture all relevant context.

[ES] Bob uses text-to-speech for voice interactions. We offer several voice options and you can choose one that matches your brand. The conversation flow is natural and conversational.

[ES] We're building integrations with CRMs, scheduling tools, and industry-specific software. Current integrations include Twilio, Vonage, and basic webhook support. [ES] Join our waitlist [ES] to be notified when your tools are supported.

[ES] Scheduling integrations are on our roadmap. Currently, Bob captures appointment requests and customer details, which your team can then confirm. Direct booking will require integration with your scheduling software.

[ES] Yes. We offer a REST API and webhook support for custom integrations. API documentation is available for pilot customers.

[ES] Bob only responds from your approved content. You can also set explicit guardrails — topics Bob should refuse to discuss, escalation triggers, and required disclaimers for certain topics.

[ES] We are building toward compliance certifications. Currently, Bob is designed with privacy and governance in mind, but we don't yet hold healthcare or security certifications. Check our [ES] Proof Center [ES] for current status.

[ES] Bob logs conversations for your review and improvement. Personal information shared by customers is stored securely. You control data retention policies and can export or delete data as needed.

[ES] Yes. We track refusals so you can see what questions customers asked that Bob couldn't answer. This helps identify knowledge gaps and improve Bob's content over time.

[ES] Yes. All conversations are logged with full traces. You can export logs for compliance, training, or analysis purposes. Exports include timestamps, source references, and any tool calls Bob made.

[ES] When business-line phone is enabled for your account, calls can be recorded with appropriate consent notices (Bob can announce recording at the start of calls where required). Recordings and transcripts are designed to be available in your admin portal. Phone on your main line is still rolling out—see [ES] Proof Center [ES] for status.

[ES] Default retention is 90 days, but you can configure longer retention for compliance needs or shorter retention for privacy preferences. Data can be exported before deletion.

[ES] We're currently in pilot phase with early-access pricing. Pricing will be based on usage (conversations, channels, integrations). [ES] Join our waitlist [ES] to get pilot pricing.

[ES] We offer pilot programs for qualified businesses. During the pilot, you can test Bob with your actual content and customers before committing. [ES] Apply to join the pilot.

[ES] Pilot includes: knowledge ingestion from your sources, chat widget setup, admin portal access, conversation logs, and direct support from our team. Phone and advanced integrations may be additional.

[ES] 1) We crawl your website and ingest your documents. 2) We generate an ingestion report showing what Bob learned. 3) You review and approve. 4) We deploy the chat widget. 5) We monitor the first few days together.

[ES] Pilot customers get direct support via email and Slack. We also have a help center and documentation. Enterprise customers get dedicated support and SLAs.

[ES] Yes. You can configure Bob's tone (professional, friendly, casual), greeting messages, and brand voice. Bob can be configured to match your company's communication style.
