How to adjust the tone and personality of an internal chatbot's responses through the prompt
To adjust an internal chatbot's tone, edit the prompt field in the agent's settings and describe the personality you want — like "answer in a funny way" or "act like a sales director" — and the responses will automatically follow that style.
Why does customizing the chatbot's tone make a difference?
An AI agent that answers in the same institutional tone for every topic can sound too generic, especially when the goal is to reinforce the company's culture or a specific team's style. Adjusting the prompt lets the chatbot converse in a way that's more aligned with the audience that will use it.
Sales, support, or HR teams often have very different communication styles from each other — and the agent's prompt can reflect exactly that difference.
How to adjust the tone in the prompt
- Go to the settings for the chatbot-type agent.
- Edit the prompt field, describing the tone you want (formal, casual, technical, funny, etc.).
- Add extra context, like "answer as if you were a sales director."
- Test it with real questions and adjust the prompt until you get the expected style.
