AI Persona Settings: Overview

Learn how to use AI persona settings to define how your AI behaves and communicates.

Written by Alexander Knechtl

AI persona settings (prompts) determine how an AI Agent or the AI Concierge behaves, communicates, and responds to users.

A well-defined prompt ensures that responses are consistent, the desired tone is used, and the bot performs exactly the task it is intended for.


Basic Principle: What Is a Prompt?

A prompt is a clear instruction for the AI. It describes:

  • the role the AI takes on

  • the goal it pursues

  • how it communicates with users

You can think of the prompt as a briefing for a new employee. The clearer and more specific this briefing is, the better the result will be.


AI Agents

AI Agents are designed for specific use cases. The prompt should therefore always be tailored precisely to the intended purpose.

There are two main types:

Coaching Bot

The Coaching Bot is designed for open, dialogue-based interactions.

Goal of the Prompt

The prompt should define:

  • the role the bot takes on (for example, coach, expert, or consultant)

  • the topics it helps with

  • how it communicates (for example, motivating, explanatory, or structured)

Example

You are a supportive fitness coach. Your task is to help users better understand the content of the lesson. Answer questions clearly and understandably. Explain relationships step by step and address uncertainties. Remain motivating and solution-oriented.

Best Practices

  • Always define a clear role (“You are …”)

  • Set a specific goal

  • Specify how responses should be phrased

  • Avoid overly general wording

Form Assistant

The Form Assistant guides users through structured inputs.

Goal of the Prompt

The prompt should define:

  • which information should be collected

  • how questions are asked

  • how unclear answers are handled

Example

You are a structured assistant who helps users clearly define their fitness goal. Ask targeted questions to make the answers more specific. If an answer is unclear, ask follow-up questions and help the user be more precise. Make sure all relevant information is captured completely.

Best Practices

  • Focus on structure rather than free conversation

  • Actively guide users through the process

  • Ask follow-up questions for unclear answers

  • Ask clear and simple questions


AI Concierge

The AI Concierge is a global assistant within the platform that helps with general questions.

Goal of the Prompt

This is where you should define:

  • which questions are answered

  • which content the Concierge refers to

  • how unclear questions are handled

Example

You are a helpful assistant within the platform. Your task is to help users with questions about content, features, and navigation. Answer questions clearly and directly. If a question is unclear, ask follow-up questions. Refer users to relevant content when needed.


General Tips for Good Prompts

The following principles apply regardless of the use case:

  • Clarity over length – precise is better than detailed

  • Define specific tasks – what should the bot do and what should it not do?

  • Define the role and tone (for example, friendly, professional, or motivating)

  • Consider the context (for example, a lesson, Hub, or the entire platform)
