The Capture Leads action enables your AI support agent to collect information from visitors and add them to your Contacts. Use this to prompt visitors for contact information at the right moment, such as when they’re interested in enterprise pricing or need further assistance.

How it Works

When a visitor’s query matches the action’s description, your chatbot will display a lead capture form. After submission, their details are saved to your Contacts where you can view and export them. You can add multiple Capture Leads actions with different configurations to collect different information for different scenarios.

In your chatbot dashboard, click Configuration in the sidebar, then select Tools & Actions.

  • Name: Give your action a descriptive name (e.g., contact_form)
  • Description: Describe when the AI should show this form (e.g., “Use this action to collect contact information from visitors who want to get in touch.”)

Configure Form Fields

Set up the fields to display in your lead capture form:
  • Type: Select the field type (Text, Email, etc.)

Set Response Messages

  • Submitted Message: Message shown when the form is submitted (e.g., “Thank you for your submission! We’ll get back to you soon.”)

Viewing Captured Leads

After visitors complete your form, their details appear in the Contacts section of your chatbot dashboard. From there you can:
  • View all captured leads and their submitted information
  • Export your contacts and leads to CSV

Example Use Cases

  • Enterprise inquiries: Capture contact details when visitors ask about enterprise pricing or custom solutions
  • Support escalation: Collect information when visitors need human assistance for complex issues
  • Newsletter signups: Prompt visitors to subscribe when they show interest in updates
  • Demo requests: Gather details when visitors want to schedule a product demo
Create multiple Capture Leads actions with different forms for different scenarios. For example, one for sales inquiries (collecting company name) and another for support requests (collecting issue details).
