Conversation AI – Enable Triggers / Instructions in Knowledge Base
Whatโs New
We are introducing a triggers / instructions to enhance how Conversation AI interacts with the Knowledge Base (KB).
With this update, users can define explicit triggers or instructions for when the AI should use the Knowledge Base, giving more control over response accuracy and reducing cases where the AI misses KB or relevant information.
By default, nothing changes for existing setup. The current behaviour where the AI agent decides when to use the KB remains unchanged unless triggers are configured.
Additionally, weโve expanded how Knowledge Bases can be configured:
- You can now create up to 4 triggers
- Each trigger can have up to 7 Knowledge Bases attached
- Previously, users could only configure 7 Knowledge Bases in total
How it Works?
1. Default Behaviour (No Change)
- If no trigger conditions are defined, the AI will continue to:
- Autonomously decide when to query the Knowledge Base.
- Follow the existing behaviour.
2. Define Trigger Conditions (New โ Optional)
- Users can configure specific conditions or instructions within the Knowledge Base.
- These act as signals for the AI to explicitly invoke the KB when certain scenarios are met.
- Users can configure up to 4 triggers within the Knowledge Base
- Each trigger can include up to 7 Knowledge Bases
- These triggers act as signals for the AI to explicitly invoke the KB when certain scenarios are met
3. Dynamic KB Invocation
- When a trigger condition is present:
- The system evaluates the condition at execution.
- If matched, the AI prioritises retrieving information from the Knowledge Base.
4. Dynamic Decisioning Making
- The AI can still:
- Independently decide to use the KB when needed.
- Combine autonomous reasoning with user-defined control
Why this Matters
- Reduces cases where the AI misses relevant KB information
- Improves response accuracy and reliability
- Gives users more deterministic control, especially for critical workflows
- Aligns Conversation AI with tool-based architecture patterns (similar to Voice AI)
Note
- This is a new release and may evolve based on feedback.
- Existing workflows will not be impacted unless triggers are configured.


Make voice calls without buying a phone number (using your existing phone number) (via Labs)
9th of April, 2026
Make voice calls without buying a phone number (using your existing phone number)
—
What's new
You can now make voice calls directly from AIOTB using a phone number you already own, no need to purchase a AIOTB number first. This removes the biggest barrier to getting started with voice calling.
Previously, you had to buy a phone number before you could make a single call. Now, you can verify an existing number and start calling in under a minute.
—
How it works
- When you open the dialer without a purchased phone number, you'll see the option to use your existing number

- Click on Use your existing phone number

- Enter your existing phone number which you want to show as caller ID for your outbound calls

- You will receive a call on your existing phone number. Enter the 6 digit code after answering the call to verify that you own this number

- You can now call yourself to try voice calling. To call others, you'll need to complete identity verification

- First call to own number

- After your first call, you'll be prompted to complete a one-time ID check using a government ID and selfie. This is required to place calls to contacts

- ID check using government ID and selfie
—
Managing your Verified Caller ID

- To check settings of your existing phone number (Verified Caller ID), go to sub-account settings > Phone System > Phone Numbers > Verified Caller ID

- Under the 3 dot menu, you can enable call recording
—
How to enable this under Labs?
- The agency admin needs to go to Agency settings > Labs

- Click on Activate Feature

- Enable it for the sub-accounts you want
—
Good to know
- Call costs are the same as regular outbound calling
- Inbound calls continue to ring on your existing phone number as usual
- You can still make outbound calls from your existing phone number outside of AIOTB
- You can always purchase a dedicated AIOTB phone number at any time
- ID verification is needed once for a sub-account
