This guide walks you through the minimum setup to get Janine actively engaging buyers on your store. You can fine-tune everything later.
Go to Settings in the Freway dashboard. Under Thresholds, configure two values:
Under Channels in settings, turn on the channels you want Janine to use. Which channels are available depends on your plan:
Email is the simplest to start with. If you want to send from your own domain instead of Freway’s default, see Email domain setup.
Under Janine AI Settings, pick a personality that matches your brand:
You can also run the Analyze Brand Voice tool, which reads your existing product descriptions and store copy to suggest a voice profile.
Go to Knowledge Base and upload documents that help Janine give accurate answers. Good things to upload:
Janine will pull from these documents when buyers ask questions. Without them, she can still sell based on your product catalog, but she won’t be able to answer policy questions.
If you want Janine available as a live chat on your store:
Buyers can chat with Janine directly on your store, ask about products, and add items to their cart from the conversation.
Janine will start engaging buyers on their next checkout. Give it a day or two, then check the Dashboard to see how she’s doing.
If you’re on the Enterprise plan, the Lifecycle Agent will also start handling post-purchase conversations automatically.
