AI Agents
Configure artificial intelligence agents to automate customer service in Interflow.
Overview
Interflow's AI Agents are intelligent virtual assistants that can handle customers autonomously, answer questions, schedule appointments, transfer to teams, and much more.
🔄 Automatic Flow
When you create an AI Agent, the system automatically generates a linked flow. The agent always operates within this flow, allowing you to combine AI intelligence with other automation nodes.
Available Models
In the AI Agent you choose the integration and the model:
| Integration | Who pays | Models |
|---|---|---|
| Interflow | Plan credits | OpenAI (list below) |
| OpenAI (your key) | Your OpenAI account | Same OpenAI family |
| DeepSeek (your key) | Your DeepSeek account | DeepSeek V4 Flash and V4 Pro |
OpenAI — With Reasoning
Models with advanced reasoning (effort level and verbosity configurable).
| Model | Description | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| GPT-5.5 | Premium reasoning | 💲💲💲💲 |
| GPT-5.4 | Latest reasoning | 💲💲💲 |
| GPT-5.4 Mini | Economical reasoning | 💲 |
| GPT-5.4 Nano | Super economical reasoning | 💲 |
| GPT-5.2 | Advanced reasoning | 💲💲💲 |
| GPT-5.1 | Advanced reasoning | 💲💲💲 |
| GPT-5 | Reasoning | 💲💲💲 |
| GPT-5 Mini | Economical reasoning | 💲 |
| GPT-5 Nano | Super economical reasoning | 💲 |
OpenAI — Conversation (Chat)
Specialized in conversation; gpt-5.X-chat-latest models also support reasoning (except the legacy GPT-5 Chat Latest).
| Model | Description | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| GPT-5.3 Chat Latest | Conversation | 💲💲💲 |
| GPT-5.2 Chat Latest | Conversation | 💲💲💲 |
| GPT-5.1 Chat Latest | Conversation | 💲💲💲 |
| GPT-5 Chat Latest | Conversation (legacy) | 💲💲💲 |
OpenAI — Without Reasoning
Simpler and faster models, with temperature and max tokens.
| Model | Description | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| GPT-4.1 | Intelligent and versatile | 💲💲💲 |
| GPT-4.1 Mini | Low cost with good performance | 💲 |
| GPT-4.1 Nano | Most economical, light tasks | 💲 |
DeepSeek (your own key)
Available after you register the DeepSeek integration. Does not consume Interflow credits.
| Model | Description | Cost (reference) |
|---|---|---|
| DeepSeek V4 Flash | Fast and economical | 💲 |
| DeepSeek V4 Pro | More capable, complex tasks | 💲💲 |
Both support Thinking Mode (chain-of-thought) with High or Maximum effort. With Thinking Mode on, temperature is ignored by the DeepSeek API.
💡 Tip
For most support cases with Interflow credits, GPT-5 Nano or GPT-5 Mini (or GPT-5.4 Nano / Mini) offer a good cost-benefit. With your own key, see also OpenAI and DeepSeek.

Other providers may be added in the future (e.g. Claude, Gemini).
Accessing AI Agents
- In the main menu, click AI Agents (🤖)
- You'll see a list of all configured agents
- Use the search to find agents by name
- Click the A → Z button to sort alphabetically
Creating an AI Agent
When creating a new agent, you'll have two options:
Option 1: Generate with AI
Use our AI-assisted generation tool to create the agent's context automatically. Just describe what you want and the AI will create the complete prompt.
Option 2: Create Manually
Create the agent from scratch, configuring each detail manually.
Editor Tabs
The AI Agent editor has 6 main tabs:
1. Context
This is the main tab where you define the agent's prompt/instructions.
Available resources:
- Text Editor: Write the agent's instructions, personality, and rules
- Generate with AI: Creates context automatically based on a description
- Improve: Improves existing text using AI
- Questions: View questions the agent couldn't answer (edit mode only)
- Extra Contexts: Add supplementary information (e.g., product lists)
- Token Usage: Track token consumption in real time (for Interflow)
2. Test
The testing tab lets you chat directly with the AI Agent before going live.
How to Use:
- After adding context, click the "Test" tab
- Type messages as if you were a customer
- Observe the agent's responses
- Check if the behavior is appropriate
3. Files
Add media the agent can send during conversations. Organize files into folders (categories) to make them easier to find and give better context to the AI.
Supported file types:
- 🖼️ Images: JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP
- 🎵 Audio: MP3, WAV, OGG
- 🎬 Videos: MP4, WebM
- 📄 Documents: PDF, DOCX, XLSX
Folders:
- Create folders to group documents (e.g. Products, Policies, Photos)
- Rename a folder with the pencil icon in the header — the change applies immediately for the whole organization
- Files in the folder remain accessible after renaming
4. Tools
Configure the actions the agent can run during the conversation. There are two types:
- Ready-made actions — customer profile, contact, address, query API, research websites, transfer, schedule, funnel, follow-up, and more
- Custom actions — tools you create (parameters + what to run when triggered)

Full list, description of each action, and setup steps: AI Tools.
5. Knowledge Base
Add internal company documents so the AI consults them during conversations, providing accurate answers without relying on generic reasoning.
How it works:
Each registered document automatically becomes a tool available to the AI. The search is adaptive:
- Short documents (up to 3 blocks) → full content returned directly
- Long documents (more than 3 blocks) → RAG semantic search returns only the most relevant excerpts
The search uses hybrid technology combining vector embeddings with keyword search, supporting Portuguese, English, and Spanish.
How to add a document:
- In the Knowledge Base tab, click "Add document"
- Fill in:
- Title – Document name (e.g.,
Business Hours) - Description – Content summary; the more specific, the better the AI knows when to call it (e.g.,
Contains operating hours, holidays and phone for scheduling) - Language – Main content language
- Content – Full text, with Markdown support
- Title – Document name (e.g.,
- Click "Save"
💡 Tip
The description is the most important field. Use words the customer would use when asking: instead of "General information", write "Contains address, hours, accepted plans and consultation fees".
📂 Organization by subject
Prefer one document per subject (e.g., Hours, Address, Cancellation Policy) instead of one big document with everything. Focused documents generate more accurate answers.

💡 Savings
Cached tokens cost up to 10x less. Mini and Nano models are significantly cheaper for high-volume use cases.
Credit Statement
Access the detailed history at Settings → Usage → AI Credits:
- Total available balance
- Breakdown by source (Plan, Purchased, Bonus)
- Full transaction history
- Filters by transaction type and usage
Intelligent Follow-up
The AI can automatically adjust follow-ups based on the conversation context.
How It Works
When the customer mentions a future date or indicates this isn't the right time:
- "Let's talk Thursday" → AI reschedules follow-up to Thursday
- "I'll be back on the 25th" → AI schedules return for the 25th
- "I've already closed a deal" → AI pauses the follow-up
Configuring
- Access the agent's Tools
- Add the "Change Return Date" action
- Select the Flow and Node destination
- Save
Transfer with Automatic Summary
When transferring a conversation to a human team, the AI can automatically generate a summary:
- Edit the "Transfer to Team" action
- Check: ✅ "Generate attendance summary on transfer"
- Save
The summary includes:
- Reason for contact
- Main customer questions
- Steps already taken
- Important data collected
Signature in Messages
Add an automatic signature to AI-generated messages.
How to Configure
The signature is configured in the linked flow, specifically in the Send Text Node.
- Access the AI Agent's linked flow
- Locate the Send Text node that sends AI responses
- In the message field, add the desired signature after the response variable
Example:
{{ai_response}}
