Setting up an AI assistant for customer service

Setting up a corporate AI assistant for an online retailer’s customer service: hard rules against invention and against mixing languages and currencies.

The challenge

It lost context, improvised answers and confused currencies.

A team at an online retailer operating in several countries used a corporate AI assistant for customer service and kept hitting its limits: it lost context between sessions, answered from itself rather than from the uploaded documents, and confused languages and currencies between the country e-shops.

Our approach

A production system prompt built on hard rules.

We wrote a production system prompt in Czech and Slovak built on hard rules: read the attached knowledge first, never answer outside it, hold one language and one currency per e-shop. Alongside it, a recommended knowledge-base structure and sample briefs. The deliverable is two documents and no code.

A recommended knowledge-base structure: which documents to upload and in what format
Sample briefs for three recurring tasks
A one-new-chat-per-task rule, explained for a non-technical reader
A portable prompt that extracts the learned knowledge into Markdown, so it stays with the company
