Guardrail
We’ve added a new layer of protection to your AI-powered features to ensure safer, more responsible use.

Messages are now automatically checked before they’re processed by the AI. These guardrails help block:
  • Harmful or sensitive content (e.g. violence, self-harm, or severe harassment)
  • Jailbreak attempts that try to manipulate the AI or extract internal instructions
How this helps you
You’ll enjoy more secure and reliable AI interactions—giving you peace of mind whether you’re using AI Assist or AI Agents.
No action needed. Just sit back and relax—these guardrails are already working behind the scenes for AI Assist and AI Agents.

AI Assist just got a major upgrade—it can now understand
audio messages
as part of the conversation context.
What’s new

How this helps you
  • With both text and voice in the mix, AI Assist gives better responses—fewer misunderstandings, smoother conversations, and a more human touch.
No action needed. Just keep using AI Assist as usual. It now listens as well as it reads—so every word counts, whether typed or spoken 🎧✨
Prompt snippets
You can now use
prompt templates
when configuring your AI Agents! These ready-made templates help you quickly add structured, best-practice prompts to your agent’s

and
Actions

Why it matters:
  • Faster setup
    – Start from proven templates instead of writing prompts from scratch.
  • More consistent agent behavior
    – Define clear flows, boundaries, follow-ups, and handoffs.
  • Fewer errors and guesswork
    – Templates help agents stay within scope and escalate when needed.
Pick a prompt template, customize it to your specific needs, and get reliable AI Agent results with less effort.
