What is instraCHAT?
instraCHAT is an AI chat system for your WebApp. Create AI agents, train them with your knowledge base, and let them provide instant, intelligent responses to your customers 24/7 — via the chat widget or email.
Each agent can be configured with its own personality, knowledge sources, and visual appearance. You can have multiple agents for different purposes — one for sales inquiries, another for technical support, and so on.
Core Components
instraCHAT is built around four key components:
Agents
AI assistants that handle conversations. Each agent has a name, description, AI model, and assigned knowledge sources. Agents can respond through the chat widget and, optionally, via email. You can track their performance including average response time.
Sources
The knowledge base your agents draw from. Upload documents, add website URLs, or paste text content. When customers ask questions, agents search these sources to provide accurate, contextual answers.
Q&A
Predefined question-and-answer pairs that give your agents specific responses for common inquiries. Q&A takes priority over sources, ensuring consistent answers for frequently asked questions.
Appearances
Visual templates that define how the chat widget looks. Customize colors (primary, secondary, background), create light and dark mode variants, and assign different appearances to different agents.
The Overview Dashboard
When you open instraCHAT, you'll see the Overview dashboard with key metrics at a glance:
- Agents — Total number of AI agents you've created
- Sources — Total knowledge sources across all agents
- Q&A — Total question-answer pairs defined
- Conversations — Total chat conversations handled
The dashboard also shows Quick Actions to navigate to Agents, Sources, Q&A, or Appearance management, plus a list of your recent agents with their status.
