# Troubleshooting

Use this page when something does not work as expected.

Start by identifying the product area: agent, phone number, knowledge, channel, billing, integration, or History.

## Why it matters for your business

- **Save money:** fix configuration issues before they create missed calls or wrong answers.
- **Work faster:** narrow the issue before contacting support.
- **Standardize service:** use one troubleshooting path for the team.
- **Delight every Guest:** reduce downtime and inconsistent answers.

## Agent does not sound right

Check:

1. **Inbound calls** greeting and prompt.
2. **Agent settings** voice and model configuration.
3. Whether the latest changes were saved.
4. A browser test call.

## Agent cannot answer a question

Check:

1. Whether the answer exists in approved knowledge.
2. Whether staged content still needs review.
3. Whether the prompt tells the agent to use knowledge.
4. Whether the question should be escalated instead.

## Phone number is not working

Check:

1. The number status.
2. Whether it is assigned to the right agent.
3. Inbound routing.
4. Outbound routing if placing calls.
5. Billing/payment readiness.

## SMS or WhatsApp is not replying

Check:

1. Channel connection status.
2. Automatic replies setting.
3. Whether the phone number is connected to the channel.
4. Test message behavior.
5. History timeline for the Guest.

## Billing blocks setup

Check:

1. Payment method status.
2. Wallet balance.
3. Auto top-up settings.
4. Stripe portal or invoices.
5. Owner permissions.

## When to contact support

Contact support when:

- a live number cannot receive calls,
- billing or payment blocks live service,
- an integration fails after reconnecting,
- messages are delivered incorrectly,
- a knowledge upload stays stuck,
- you see repeated failures that affect Guests.
