Before you start

  • Only the owner and admins can change the organization's info.

Step by step

  1. Step 1:

    Open Settings › Company › Company info. On the Segment card, click Change segment.

  2. Step 2:

    In Choose your industry, click the group that best fits your business: Services, Retail, Professional, Food & Beverage or Other / custom.

  3. Step 3:

    Click your business's segment. A pilates studio, for example, would choose Gym / Fitness. If you opened the wrong group, use Back to industries.

How to know it worked

The Segment card now shows the chosen segment, and the AI uses that industry's default settings.

If something goes wrong

I couldn't find my industry on the list.

Choose Other / custom. The AI keeps working; you'll just adjust the agent's instructions on your own.

Next step

Adjust the AI's response time.
