    `Introducing **AI Re-Engagement** - Our AI agent now intelligently follows up with customers on WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram within 24 hours based on conversation context.

## Background
Following initial customer interactions, timely follow-ups are crucial for ensuring customer satisfaction. Since manually following up with each customer isn't scalable, we've developed an AI system that intelligently manages customer re-engagement within a 24-hour window.

## How it works
You can customize three key aspects of the re-engagement:
1. The time window for follow-up after the last message
2. The specific conditions that trigger a follow-up
3. The style and content of the re-engagement message

When the specified time arrives, the AI evaluates whether the conversation meets your defined re-engagement criteria. If the conditions are met, it sends a contextually appropriate follow-up message based on the previous conversation.

## How to set up
Simply configure the time window, trigger conditions, and messaging instructions after connecting your WhatsApp, Messenger, or Instagram account with your AI agent.

- Random delays between 0-4 hours
- Easy setup through the Integrations tab
- Improved user experience for roleplay scenarios

This update helps create more authentic conversations by preventing instant responses that typically give away AI chatbots.`,
};


## Background
With the WhatsApp, Messenger and Instagram integrations, if the AI chatbot responds immediately after the user's message, it can easily be detected as an AI bot, leading to a poor user experience when using our AI bot for roleplay.

## New Feature
To address this, we've launched a feature to delay the AI agent's response for a configurable amount of time. You can configure the delay time range for each integration. The AI chatbot will randomly delay its response within the range you set, making it harder to detect as an AI bot.

To configure this, simply click the **WhatsApp**, **Messenger** or **Instagram** integration card in the **Integrations** tab.


For example, with the configuration above, the AI chatbot will randomly delay its response uniformly between 0 to 1800 seconds after the response has been generated.

Currently, the average delay time range is between 0 to 2 hours, with the variance range being less than the average time. Therefore, the maximum delay time is less than 4 hours.

## Overview
We've expanded our [AI actions](/changelog/ai-actions) feature to support realtime voice-to-voice interactions. AI agents can now execute actions and display results directly in voice conversations, creating a unified experience across text and voice interfaces.

## New Capabilities
- **Content Generation**: Create images and PDF documents by talking to your AI agent
- **Interactive Features**: Execute searches and trigger button actions via voice
- **Background Processing**: Support for lazy chat actions and lead collection
- **Realtime Results**: View action outcomes directly in the chat interface

## Impact
This update eliminates the previous limitation where AI actions were restricted to text-based interactions, enabling a seamless experience regardless of communication method.

};


Introducing **AI Actions in Realtime** - We've expanded our AI actions capability to support realtime voice-to-voice chat interactions. Your AI agent can now not only answer questions based on your knowledge base but also perform customized AI actions and display results directly in the realtime chat interface.

## Background
Previously, AI actions were only available in text chat mode. Voice-to-voice conversations couldn't utilize features like [lazy live chat](https://cookbook.chat-data.com/docs/live-chat-escalation#lazy-live-chat-triggering), [image and document generation](https://cookbook.chat-data.com/docs/ai-actions#files-and-images-with-api-response), or [custom API calls](https://cookbook.chat-data.com/docs/ai-actions#ai-actions-api). With this update, we've bridged this gap by bringing full AI actions support to the [realtime voice chat](https://cookbook.chat-data.com/docs/realtime-voice-chat).

## Key Features
### Document and Image Generation
Users can now request document or image generation by talking to the AI agent. The AI agent will process these requests using either the [image/document generation API](https://cookbook.chat-data.com/docs/ai-actions#files-and-images-with-api-response) or the [AI PDF action](/changelog/pdf-ai-action), with results displayed directly in the chat interface.


### Search and Button Actions
The AI agent can now execute search queries and button actions during voice conversations, with results seamlessly integrated into the chat interface.


### Background Actions
Background processes like lazy chat actions and lead collection are also supported in voice conversations. While these actions don't display visible results in the interface, they run silently and influence the AI's responses accordingly.

## ⚙️ **How It Works**  
- **Blocklist** – Denied IPs can't access the chatbot

We’re excited to introduce **IP-based access control** for your chatbot! Now, you can **enhance security and manage user access** with customizable **blocklists** and **allowlists**.  

## 🚀 **What You Can Do**  
- ✅ **Block malicious users** and prevent spam  
- ✅ **Restrict access by country** to comply with regulations or business needs  
- ✅ **Limit chatbot usage** to specific company networks or authorized IPs  

## ⚙️ **How It Works**  
- 🔹 **Blocklist Check** – If an IP is in the blocklist, access is denied. Otherwise, it moves to the allowlist check.  
- 🔹 **Allowlist Check** – If the allowlist is empty, all users (except blocked ones) can access the chatbot. If the allowlist has entries, only listed users are allowed.  
- 🔹 **Full Access Control** – Even if an IP is in the allowlist, it will be blocked if also found in the blocklist.  

## 🔧 **How to Set It Up**  
Go to **Settings > Security** to configure your blocklist and allowlist. You can also block/unblock IPs directly from the **Chat Logs, Leads Dashboard, and Live Chat Dashboard**.

`,
};


We're excited to roll out **Realtime Voice Chat**, a groundbreaking feature that lets your chatbot communicate **just like a real person**! With this update, users can engage in **natural voice conversations**, making interactions **faster, more engaging, and more intuitive**.  

🚀 **Available on Standard and Above Plans**  

---

## 🔧 **How to Enable Realtime Voice Chat**  
Realtime Voice Chat is **not enabled by default** due to its **high resource costs**. To activate it:  
1️⃣ Go to **Settings** > **Realtime Audio**.  
2️⃣ Choose the **voice avatar** that appears in the chatbot.  
3️⃣ Set a **default voice** (users can change this later).  
4️⃣ Preview available voices before selecting.  

---

## 🎙️ **Realtime Voice Chat Features**  

### - ✅ **Audio Playback in Chat Logs**  
- By default, **original voice interactions** are stored and available in the **Chat Logs Dashboard** for review.  
- Disabling this option will store only **text transcripts** (generated by OpenAI's Whisper model).  

### ⚙️ **Adjustable Voice Chat Parameters**  
Fine-tune voice interaction settings for a seamless experience:  
- **Threshold** – Adjust voice activity detection sensitivity.  
- **Prefix Padding** – Set how much audio before speech recognition is included.  
- **Silence Duration** – Define when the chatbot considers speech to have ended.  
- **RAG Limit** – Control how much context is retrieved per message to **optimize costs**.  

Users can also **change voices dynamically** via the voice selection overlay. 🌍 **Multi-language support** is available!  

---

## 💰 **Cost & Pricing**  
Voice-based interactions are processed through **OpenAI's realtime API**, which is more resource-intensive than text-based queries.  

📌 **Cost Optimization Tip:**  
- By default, the chatbot retrieves **10 RAG text chunks** (~3,000 tokens). Lowering this to **5 chunks** reduces costs.  
- **gpt-4-realtime-min-preview** is **more cost-effective** than gpt-4o-mini, averaging **1 credit per message**.  
- Messages **without context retrieval** cost ~10 credits, while those **with context retrieval** cost **30-40 credits**.  

📊 **View Credit Usage:**  
You can check **cost per message** in the **Chat Logs dashboard** by hovering over the **question mark icon**.  

---

  - Activate Multi-modal Inputs in **Settings > Chat Interface** (available in Standard plan and above).
  - Upload files and images directly during chat interactions.

- **Enhanced AI Chat:**  
  - The chatbot now demonstrates its analytical prowess by examining uploaded documents and images, delivering precise responses to your queries.

- **Files RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation):**  
  - Uploaded files are processed by extracting and analyzing content to find relevant matches in your knowledge base, ensuring accurate and contextual chatbot responses.

- **Images RAG:**  
  - **Two-step Image Processing:**
    1. **Text Extraction:** Extracts text content from uploaded images.
    2. **Context Matching:** Matches the extracted text against your knowledge base.
  - **Customizable Prompts:**  
    Tailor the text extraction prompt to capture only the relevant details. For example, if your store specializes in specific products, you can use a custom prompt:
    ```
    Create concise descriptions of products in the image, including product type, text, etc. Be very concise and straight to the point. Possible product types are:
    - magnet
    - ayna
    - baskili-kese
    - mert-sunnet-davetiye
    - greeting card
    ```
  - Test your custom prompt by clicking the Sparkles icon and uploading an image to view the extracted text.

- **Live Chat Enhancements:**  
  - Seamlessly exchange files and images between customers and live agents during chat sessions.
  - If either party is offline, the system automatically sends an email notification with the shared files and images to ensure uninterrupted communication.

## Get Started

1. **Upgrade:** Ensure you're on the Standard plan or above.
2. **Activate:** Navigate to **Settings > Chat Interface** to enable Multi-modal Inputs.
3. **Customize & Test:** Adjust your base prompts as needed, and test image uploads using the Sparkles icon.

- ✅ **Direct Messaging** – Your responses will be delivered straight to the customer’s app (WhatsApp, Messenger, or Instagram).

This update ensures a **seamless handoff between AI automation and human support**, giving your customers the **best of both worlds!** 🎉

};


**Lazy Live Chat Escalation Feature Launch!**

We're excited to introduce our new **Lazy Live Chat Escalation** feature, giving you more control over when live chat support is triggered. Now, instead of immediately displaying the live chat escalation button, you can set conditions to delay escalation until it's truly needed.

### What's New?

- **Easy Setup:**  
  Activate Lazy Live Chat Escalation by navigating to the **Live Chat** section under **Settings** and toggling on the feature. You can also customize the default triggering conditions to fit your workflow.



- **Delayed Escalation Trigger:**  
  Live chat escalation is activated only when specific conditions are met—such as when the chatbot doesn't have an answer or if the user explicitly requests human support.


- **Seamless User Experience:**  
  - The live chat escalation button is hidden until the preset conditions are satisfied.
  - Once the escalation is triggered, a dedicated live chat session begins.
  - After the live chat ends, you can display a **Closed State Message** to inform customers they need to refresh the chatbot widget for a new conversation.


### Handling Live Chat Escalation

- **Notifications:**  
  - Receive timely alerts via email or Zendesk ticket when a live chat escalation is requested.
  - Future updates will introduce SMS and app notifications for even faster alerts.
- **Live Chat Dashboard:**  
  Manage all escalated chats at your live chat dashboard:
  - **Retrieve chat history** within a specified date range.
  - **Filter chats** by status: Unrequested, Unassigned, Open, or Ended.
  - **View online status** indicators (green for active customers, red for offline) along with customer IP addresses, countries, and submitted lead information.


- **Enhanced Messaging Workflow:**  
  - **New Message to Customer:** When an agent responds after the customer has left the widget, an email notification is sent to the customer.
  - **New Message to Agent:** When a customer responds after the agent has exited the admin portal, the agent receives an email notification.

- **Dedicated Chat Portals:**  
  - **Agent Portal:** Use the unique URL provided in the notification to handle live chats in a dedicated admin portal (no login required, white-label friendly).
  - **Customer Portal:** Customers can also access their own dedicated portal via a unique URL to continue the conversation.

This feature offers you greater flexibility in managing live chat escalations—ensuring that human support is activated exactly when it's needed.

**Happy Chatting!**

Previously, all our notification emails—including daily conversation summaries, daily leads summaries, live chat escalation notifications, and new message notifications—were sent from Chat Data's email address. This approach didn't align with the branding needs of our white labeling customers who wish to represent everything under their own brand.

**Introducing Email White Labeling**

If you are on our **Reseller** or **Professional** plan, you can now configure this feature by navigating to **Settings > White Labeling**. Follow these simple steps:

1. **Add a Customer Email:** Input the email address you want your notifications to be sent from.
2. **Update Your DNS:** Update your DNS settings as indicated in the provided table.
3. **Enjoy Rebranded Notifications:** All emails related to your chatbot will now be sent from your specified email address instead of Chat Data’s.

For example, a live chat escalation notification will now reflect your own brand’s email address, giving your communications a more personalized and professional touch.

We believe this enhancement makes white labeling more complete and thorough. Stay tuned—more email notification options will be added in the future to further enhance your branding impact.

  To adjust your preferred locales (up to four for voice-to-text detection) and voices, simply go to **Settings > Chat Interface**. You can also disable the feature if desired.

### How It Works:

1. **Activate Audio:**  
   Click the microphone icon to speak with your chatbot.
2. **Multiplatform Support:**  
   Enjoy audio interactions across our chatbot widget and popular platforms like Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram, Discord, and Slack.
3. **Listen to Responses:**  
   After receiving a text response, click on it to hear the audio output in your selected voice.

We believe this feature will greatly enhance the way users interact with your chatbot. As always, we appreciate your feedback—let us know how the new audio experience works for you!

We're excited to introduce new updates that streamline how you connect WhatsApp with your Chat Data chatbot. These enhancements not only simplify the integration process but also offer greater control and flexibility in managing customer communications.

## Key Updates:

- **Exclusive Phone Number Usage:**  
  - The WhatsApp phone number connected to your chatbot is now reserved exclusively for chatbot use—it cannot be used on WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business.
  - **Action Required:** If you are already using the number with WhatsApp, delete your account or disable two-step verification (for Meta Developer accounts) to free up the number.

- **Simplified WhatsApp Connection Process:**  
  - **Seamless Integration:** Navigate to Dashboard > [Chatbot] > Integrations and select the WhatsApp integration card.
  - **Embedded Signup Flow:**  
    1. Click **Connect** in the pop-up window.
    2. Sign in with your personal Facebook account.
    3. Click **Get started** and choose or create a business profile.
    4. Set up or select an existing WhatsApp business profile.
    5. Add a phone number (it's best to have just one associated number).
    6. Click **Continue**, allow for information verification, and then click **Finish**.
  - Enjoy up to 1000 free messages each month—add a payment method in Meta billing settings for additional messaging.

- **System User Access Token Signup Process:**  
  - **Fallback Integration:** In case you encounter Facebook authorization issues during the embedded signup:
    1. Develop your WhatsApp application following Meta's guidance.
    3. Go to the Integrations tab in your chatbot menu, click **Add to WhatsApp**, and enter your access token.
    4. Add and verify your phone number.
    5. Set up the callback URL in your WhatsApp App to subscribe to message events.

- **Live Chat Handover:**  
  - When the AI chatbot cannot provide a satisfactory response, you can take over with our live chat panel.
  - As a human agent, use the Live Chat dashboard or filter WhatsApp conversations to select the desired thread.
  - Turn off the AI chatbot for that conversation to ensure only your response is sent to the customer.
  - If the customer replies while you're offline, you'll receive an email with a link to the chat portal.

- **Automatic AI Chatbot Pause:**  
  - Configure an automatic pause (up to 1 week) during WhatsApp integration. During this period, customer messages bypass the AI and go directly to you via email notifications.
  - The AI chatbot will automatically resume after the specified duration.

## Get Started:
- **Existing WhatsApp Users:**  
  Follow the preliminary steps to delete your WhatsApp account or disable two-step verification so your number is free for integration.
- **New WhatsApp Integration:**  
  Simply head to the Integrations tab on your Dashboard and follow the guided steps to connect your WhatsApp account.
