How will you check the answers?
Before you put an agent in front of customers, test the work you expect it to do. These controls help you review its behavior; AI answers still need ongoing checks.
Test before you launch
Use the Playground to try product questions and policy exceptions. Review the answers and refine your setup before enabling the agent for customers.
Plan the human handoff
Configure when the agent should hand a conversation to your team. Test those cases and check that the person taking over has the context they need.
Set your instructions
Use AI Studio to define tone, policies and the actions the agent can take. Revisit the instructions when your products or policies change.
Review the conversation
Check how the agent handled a customer question and use that feedback to improve your knowledge and instructions.
Start with your store information and the actions you want to enable. Explore AI Studio and the Shopify integration before choosing your setup.
What will your setup cost?
Klaviyo pricing: Compare contacts, messages, service and AI usage for the channels you need. Include the cost of tools you will keep alongside either product. For bitbybit, compare the current plan allowances, AI response top-ups and WhatsApp messaging fees. Team and feature limits depend on the plan.
What needs to move from Klaviyo?
Start with your current connection, data and workflows. WhatsApp Business App coexistence and provider migration have different requirements. Confirm eligibility, history limits and timing before disconnecting your current tool. Read the connection guide.
Identify your current provider and whether you use WhatsApp Business App or the Business Platform. Confirm number-transfer eligibility and account access first.
List your catalog, contacts, templates and workflows. Confirm export formats and history limits; not every connection imports past conversations.
Test product answers, order context and human handoff before going live. Agree on a test setup that avoids duplicate replies; parallel use depends on the connection.
Confirm responsibilities, any interruption and your previous provider’s contract terms. Set a timeline after reviewing your setup.
