Create a Chatbot

Get your first AI chatbot up and running in under 5 minutes. This guide walks you through the initial setup process.

In short: In Hyperleap AI, click Quick Start on the AI Chatbots page, paste your website URL and pick a goal; Studio reads your site, imports your branding and writes a starting prompt. Or click Design Chatbot to build from scratch.

Before You Begin

Make sure you're in Bot Studio mode. If you see "AI Studio" in your dashboard, click the mode switcher in the top navigation to switch to "AI Chatbots".

Tip:
Working for an agency? Chatbots live inside a client, not in the partner organization itself. Open the client first. See Managing Clients.

The Fastest Way: Quick Start

On the AI Chatbots page, click "Quick Start". Paste your website URL, choose what the chatbot should do (Capture leads, Customer support, Answer FAQs, or All of the above), and click "Continue". Studio reads your site, imports your branding, and writes a starting prompt for you.

Create your chatbot dialog with a website URL field and four choices: Capture leads, Customer support, Answer FAQs, and All of the above

You can always rename your chatbot later by clicking on its name in the editor header. The name is for your reference and doesn't appear to website visitors unless you configure it to show in the chat header.

Chatbot Status

Your chatbot starts in "Draft" status. You'll see status badges like:

Draft

Not yet published, still being configured

Saved, Pending Publish

Changes saved but not live yet

Ready to Integrate

Published and ready to deploy

Next Steps

Now that your chatbot is created, proceed to the Design Tab guide to set up the lead form, conversation, and chat button, and to match your brand.
