Personality

Configure your AI's business context, tone, and custom instructions.

The personality config tells the AI who you are and how it should present itself. This shapes both the owner copilot (more context = better answers) and the customer chat (consistent brand voice).

Configuring your personality

In the Vlozi dashboard → AI Brain → Settings → Personality.

Field Purpose Example
Business name Used in customer chat greetings and sign-offs Mumbai Bakery
Business type Helps the AI understand your domain food & bakery
Location Localises responses (timezone, currency, language context) Mumbai, India
Target audience Who the AI is speaking to in customer chat home bakers, foodies, gift buyers
Tone Personality register for responses friendly
Custom instructions Additional rules the AI always follows See below

Tone options

Tone Description
professional Formal, precise, business-appropriate (default)
friendly Warm, approachable, conversational
casual Relaxed, informal, like a colleague
expert Authoritative, technical, detailed
creative Imaginative, expressive, energetic

Custom instructions

Custom instructions (up to 2,000 characters) are injected into every response. Use them to enforce rules the AI should always follow:

Always respond in English even if the customer writes in Hindi.
Never discuss competitor products.
If a customer asks about delivery, always direct them to the /shipping page.
Prices are listed in INR. Do not convert to other currencies.

Via the API

Get current personality:

GET /brain/personality

  "location": "Mumbai, India",
  "targetAudience": "home bakers, foodies, gift buyers",
  "tone": "friendly",
  "customInstructions": "Always respond in English. Never discuss competitor products."
}

All fields are optional — update only what you want to change.

How personality is used

Owner copilot: The business context (name, type, location) is included in the system prompt so the AI understands your domain. If you're a bakery, "show me my top posts" interprets "posts" as recipe/product posts, not tech articles.

Customer chat: The full personality config becomes the customer chat system prompt. The AI greets customers as a representative of your business, applies your tone, and follows your custom instructions.

Tips

  • Be specific in custom instructions — "always direct delivery questions to /shipping" works better than "handle delivery questions appropriately"
  • Update it as your business evolves — if you expand to a new city or launch a new product line, update the personality so the AI reflects current state
  • Test customer chat after updating — send a few test messages to verify the tone and custom rules are working as expected
