Create Your First Agent

Creating an Agent

Meetzy offers two ways to create your AI voice agent:

Prompt-First Creation (Recommended)
Advanced Editor

The fastest way to get started. Simply describe what your agent should do, and Meetzy builds it for you automatically.

Prompt-First Creation

When creating a new agent, Meetzy presents an intuitive creation overlay where you can describe your agent in natural language.

This is as fundamental as the second law of thermodynamics: describe what you want and Meetzy generates it automatically.

Describe Your Agent

Type a description of what your agent should do. For example:

An agent that answers customer support calls for a dental clinic, 
books appointments, and transfers urgent cases to the receptionist.

Let Meetzy Build It

Press Enter or click the send button. Meetzy’s AI will automatically:

Generate an appropriate system prompt
Configure basic settings
Set up default greetings
Create relevant input/output parameters

Review and Refine

Your agent opens in the Advanced Editor where you can review and customize the generated configuration.

You can always skip the prompt-first creation and start from scratch by clicking “or start from scratch” in the creation overlay.

Automatic Agent Creation from Onboarding

When you complete the onboarding flow from our self-service landing page, Meetzy automatically creates your first agent to streamline your setup process.

If you came from our onboarding process, your agent configuration has been automatically preserved and you’ll be redirected directly to the agent editor with your initial settings applied.

How It Works

Onboarding Data Preservation

The system automatically saves your onboarding configuration including:

Initial prompt description
Selected communication channels
Business directions and requirements

Automatic Redirection

After successful authentication, you’re automatically redirected to the agent creation editor instead of the standard dashboard

Pre-populated Configuration

Your agent editor opens with your onboarding data already applied, so you can immediately review and customize your agent

Onboarding data is automatically cleared after use to maintain security. If you navigate away before completing your agent setup, you’ll need to manually re-enter your configuration.

Prerequisites

Before creating an agent, ensure you have:

An active Meetzy account with dashboard access
At least one phone number available in your account
Basic understanding of your use case (sales, support, etc.)

The Advanced Editor

The Advanced Editor is a three-panel interface for configuring your agent:

Panel	Description
Left Panel	Navigation between configuration sections

Company

Select which company this agent belongs to (for multi-company accounts).

Twilio Account

Choose the Twilio account for phone calls.

Phone Number

Phone numbers are exclusive resources. Each number can only be assigned to one agent at a time.

Select an available phone number from the dropdown. If none are available:

Release a number from another agent
Request new numbers via the “Request more numbers” link

Language Model (LLM)

Select the AI model that powers your agent’s conversations. Available models:

Anthropic (Claude)

Model	Features
Claude Haiku 4.5	Recommended. Ultra Fast. Best for tool calling.

OpenAI (GPT)

Model	Features
GPT-4o	Balanced speed and quality
GPT-4.1	Latest full model
GPT-4.1 Mini	Faster, cost-effective
GPT-4.1 Nano	Fastest, most economical

For most use cases, start with Claude Haiku 4.5 or Gemini 2.5 Flash. They offer the best balance of speed, quality, and cost.

Call Recording

Toggle to enable/disable call recordings. When enabled:

All calls are recorded and stored
Recordings are available in the Calls section
Required for quality assurance and training

Meetzy Foundation

Optional base components that enhance your agent:

Component	Description
Safety Guardrails	Prevents harmful or inappropriate responses
Conversational Aspects	Improves natural conversation flow
Agent Work Experience	Pre-trained behaviors for common scenarios

Step 2: Greetings

Click the Greetings icon (Hand Raised) to configure welcome messages.

Inbound Greeting

The first message when a customer calls your agent:

Hello! Thank you for calling {{company_name}}. How can I help you today?

Outbound Greeting

The first message when your agent calls a customer:

Hi {{customer_name}}, this is {{agent_name}} from {{company_name}}. 
I'm calling regarding {{reason}}. Is this a good time to talk?

Templates

Select from pre-built greeting templates:

Sales Call
Customer Support
Appointment Reminder
Survey Introduction

Dynamic Variables

Use variables to personalize greetings:

Variable	Example
`{{customer_name}}`	”John”
`{{company_name}}`	”Acme Corp”
`{{agent_name}}`	”Sarah”
`{{appointment_date}}`	”March 15th at 2pm”

Step 3: System Prompt

The central editor contains the System Prompt - the core instructions that define your agent’s behavior.

If you used prompt-first creation, Meetzy has already generated an optimized system prompt based on your description. You can review and customize it here.

Structure

A good system prompt includes:

Role Definition: Who the agent is
Objective: What the agent should accomplish
Guidelines: How to handle specific situations
Constraints: What the agent should NOT do

Example

You are a friendly sales qualification agent for Acme Corp.

## Objective
Qualify leads by understanding their needs and budget, 
then schedule a demo with a sales representative.

## Guidelines
- Be conversational and friendly
- Ask about their current challenges
- Understand their timeline and budget
- If qualified, offer to schedule a demo

## Constraints
- Never discuss pricing directly
- Don't make promises about features
- Transfer to human if customer is upset

Step 4: Input Params

Click the Input Params icon (Document) to define variables passed to each call. Common parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
`phone`	String	Customer’s phone number
`name`	String	Customer’s name
`email`	String	Customer’s email
`company`	String	Customer’s company
`lead_source`	String	Where the lead came from

These parameters are available in your system prompt and greetings using {{param_name}} syntax.

Step 5: Knowledge Base

Click the Knowledge Base icon (Book Stack) to add reference documents. Upload documents the agent can reference during calls:

Product FAQs
Pricing information
Company policies
Common objections and responses

The agent searches the knowledge base contextually during conversations. It doesn’t memorize everything - it retrieves relevant information when needed.

Step 6: Actions & Tools

Click the Actions & Tools icon (Wrench) to configure integrations. Available actions:

Action	Description
Transfer Call	Route to human agent
Send SMS	Send text message to customer
Send Email	Send email to customer
Calendar Booking	Schedule appointments
CRM Update	Update customer records
Custom Webhook	Call any external API

Step 7: Evaluations

Click the Evaluations icon (Check Badge) to set up automated tests. Create test scenarios to validate your agent:

Scenario: Customer asks about pricing
Expected: Agent should NOT discuss specific prices
Expected: Agent should offer to connect with sales team

Step 8: Output Settings

Click the Output Settings icon (Inbox) to define data extraction. Specify what information the agent should capture:

Field	Type	Description
`qualified`	Boolean	Is the lead qualified?
`budget_range`	String	Estimated budget
`timeline`	String	Purchase timeline
`next_steps`	String	Agreed follow-up actions
`pain_points`	Array	Customer’s challenges

Extracted data is available in call summaries and can be sent to your CRM.

Publishing Your Agent

When your configuration is complete:

Validate

Click Check to validate your configuration. Fix any errors.

Test

Use the Playground (right panel) to test conversations.

Make test calls

Use “Init Call” from the agents list to make real phone calls.

Publish

Click Publish to deploy your agent to production.

Publishing creates a new version. The previous version remains available for rollback if needed.
