Discover how Embage enables non-technical teams to configure, customize, and deploy secure AI voice and chat receptionists in 30 seconds.

FeaturesAI AgentsNo-CodeVoice AgentsCustomer Support

Deploying an AI customer support receptionist used to mean hiring engineers, wiring up document search, and building a custom voice and chat stack from scratch.

Embage changes all of that.

With Embage's no-code agent engine, you can build, configure, test, and deploy a production-ready AI voice and chat agent in under 30 seconds. Whether you need an AI receptionist to answer customer inquiries, collect leads, book calls, or troubleshoot support tickets, Embage gives non-technical builders complete control without sacrificing enterprise power.


Why Speed and Control Matter for AI Agents

Most AI chatbot builders force a compromise:

  1. Black-box solutions: Easy to set up, but you cannot change the instructions, tools, fallbacks, or the model.
  2. Custom-built agents: Full control, but weeks of engineering to get voice, helpers, forms, and privacy right.

Embage bridges this gap. A no-code builder gives you control over personality, tools, and behavior — without a custom backend.


Inside the 30-Second Agent Builder

When you create an agent in the Embage dashboard, the engine configures several crucial components simultaneously:

1. Persona & instructions

Describe the agent's job in plain language. Set tone, topics to avoid, and what to say when it does not know the answer.

2. Pick a model

Not every task needs the largest, most expensive model:

  • Fast models: Best for quick voice replies, lead qualification, and simple Q&A.
  • Deeper models: Better for multi-step support and longer document answers.

3. Tune how it talks

  • Keep answers short and factual for policy questions, or more natural for conversation.
  • Cap reply length so voice calls do not ramble.
  • Set a fallback line for when the agent is unsure.

One Agent Definition, Dual Multi-Modal Channels

A core strength of Embage is multi-channel unified deployment. You don't need to build separate bots for phone/voice calls and website text chats.

A single agent created in Embage automatically works across:

  • Voice: Visitors can talk in the browser — no phone number required.
  • Chat widget: Paste one snippet onto any website.

Privacy built in

Every agent stays inside your organization:

  • Your data stays yours: Knowledge and AI Form records are not mixed with another company's.
  • Team permissions: Control who can edit agents, tools, or integrations.
  • Safe connections: Gmail, Shopify, and HubSpot sign-ins are stored encrypted.

How to Build Your First Agent in 30 Seconds

  1. Log in to Embage: Navigate to your organization dashboard.
  2. Click "Create Agent": Give your agent a name (e.g., Front Desk Receptionist).
  3. Set the instructions: Write what the agent should do, or pick a template.
  4. Choose Your Model & Voice Settings: Select your preferred AI model and voice tone.
  5. Test in Playground: Use the built-in instant preview to test voice and chat interactions immediately.
  6. Embed on Your Site: Copy the single-line script tag to bring your AI receptionist live!
